On the first post I love that there is a dog right behind it and even sniffing it.

I just don't get it. They raised him to be this big and they appeared to do a good job at it so why give him up now?

Probably they need the money but I agree they should be a long term commitment.
hate the line _would make an ideal Christmas Present!!!

Good job there are not ads like that popping up here or my house and yard would be totally full!!
Hope they find good homes-that seems pricey for the US?-would be cheap here for sure.

But they look pretty nice considering...

[jtrux]

Well hopefully the price deters ignorant people from buying them.
