Stressmagnet Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Didn't see the story and can't read it because their mobile friendly version ... Isn't. Can you recap please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Gifts Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 There is no online link to the story on TT Adelaide's website but it says a record litter of 17 pups was born and if you would like to purchase a pup call Craig on XXXX XXX XXX. What the hell? I've never seen them be selling agents before! The comments are very scathing of the family saying they were on Centrelink and had bred and sold puppies before. It looks like the puppies are those rare blue staffies too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stressmagnet Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Ah yes. The oh so rare $3000 'blue staffy. When I was researching buying our Anstaff girl (who was plain old black and white) the amount of nonsense spouted over 'blue' Staffies was astounding. They look pretty sure but paying that for a recessive gene that carries a host of problems?? I also noticed such twaddle when I was researching labradors too. The fabled 'silver' labrador for &4000. No. Nothing screams BYB more than the words 'blue' or 'silver' to me now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denali Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 It's thr $15,000-$20,000 blue or lilac 'exotic' Bulldogs that get me OMG i just saw one of them! I wish i had a casual $15,000 spare to buy a dog with. But i certainly wouldn't be buying a 15K dog with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddy Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Ah yes. The oh so rare $3000 'blue staffy.

No. Nothing screams BYB more than the words 'blue' or 'silver' to me now. The odd thing is, the trend has spread into other breeds where blue can be shown (and is therefore not rare), with the same results. Only a few weeks ago, I saw a litter of whippets advertised on Gumtree, including "rare" blue pups and even better, a "very rare" blue brindle. As soon as a "rare" colour starts getting traction within a breed, the BYBers are lining up to pump them out. Not long ago, there were hardly any unregistered whippet breeders down here and now there's a litter advertised every other week on Gumtree :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackun Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Most blue staff are bad example of the breed. Edited February 10, 2015 by blackun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
