Puppy Scammers

Sadly it has become more apparent that puppy scammers are out there in large numbers scamming thousands of dollars from unsuspecting, prospective and often naive people each month.

Scammers often:

• Advertise on online marketplaces

• Use attractive puppy photos

• Ask for deposits before you've met the breeder

• Avoid phone calls or in-person meetings

Always:

• Speak directly with the breeder.

• Visit where possible.

• Ask plenty of questions.

• Seek advice from a DOGS NSW Breed Club before committing.
