That's a big scam...........don't send that puppy!  The deal is they 
give you too much money and you give them back the difference, and then 
find out
that the money order is no good........don't send the puppy, don't send 
the puppy, and in fact, don't give them further information at all.
Above all, don't send that puppy!
