Thank you for all the responses. I sent the e-mail and got a long answer obviously from someone without a good knowledge of the English language. Maybe, as some of you have said, the person could have some sort of disability; however, I would put out the warning that this person was picking up animals and birds to retail out at his prices. This particular "relayer" was not an individual buyer. I do wonder how this person obtained my restricted phone number? And knew I had pups for sale. Would this happen as a result of my placing an ad in a newspaper which had the added benefit (???) of putting my ad on e-mail? I wish those of us on the list could have another listing for the pups we have that are just for companion dogs--or do we?
