Hi, I came accross a kijiji ad and thought I would share it with everyone to see if maybe it can help him get a happy home.
heres the link:
http://belleville.kijiji.ca/c-pets-...OME-ASAP-CKC-TATOOED-ADULT-W0QQAdIdZ197843631

I've never posted a case before so I hope I did it right, I like the idea of sharing this information and hopefully helping him find a good home makes it worth while trying

How sweet is he? I presume someone will snatch him up pretty quickly.

I worry about dogs being listed on kijiji cause you never know if they will end up in good homes or puppy mills, especially if they are sold without being fixed

So who has this dog now?

And why does the ad play up the fact that he's from 'champion lines' and isn't neutered? Maybe having to pay $300 for him will deter puppy millers, but they could recoup that very quickly by selling their 'cash crop' (puppies).

The best thing to do when you find an ad like this is to email the poster and provide them contact information for local Golden Retriever Rescue groups. You can always find the list on this forum in the rescue section here:

Yeah.... its the part about bragging of the not being fixed that worries me. I get some people have to give up their dogs or issues arise where maybe the dog out lives the owner, but why don't they at least take the safety precaution of fixing the dog before hand so it wont end up in a puppy mill? Thats the part that always worrys me when I see ads like that Thanks for the link mylissyk I hadn't come accross that yet, I'm still trying to figure the site out, I just found out that we actually have profiles that we can make friends on or send PMs :|

As Mylissk said please email them and send them the link to the Golden Ret. Rescues and ask them to contact them.
