Being Scammed By Fake Boston Terrier Breeders
When you are ready to invest in a Boston Terrier for your family, and you intend to buy one from a Boston Terrier breeder, you need to be sure that you are dealing with a real dog breeder and not a fake trying to scam you. If you buy from a fake breeder you could be forced to put your family through expensive vet bills and tough decisions because you were sold an unhealthy pet by a fake breeder.
A sure way to tell if you have a real Boston Terrier breeder or not is if the breeder offers you pet insurance to extend coverage for six weeks after you have purchased the dog. Legitimate breeders get this pet insurance for free from insurance companies and the insurance companies hope that you will extend the coverage once the six weeks has elapsed. Only legitimate breeders get the free insurance and if you are not offered this insurance in writing then you may have a fake breeder.
Good breeders do not just disappear from your life as soon as the sale is over. Legitimate Boston Terrier breeders are part of you and your dog’s life for a long time after the purchase because it is the breeder’s name on your dog’s papers and their reputation on the line along with the life of your pet. If you find it impossible to get a hold of your breeder after the purchase, or your breeder can offer you no assistance or advice after the purchase, then the chances are you are dealing with a dishonest breeder.
Boston Terrier breeders are also supposed to help novice owners with health advice and even guidance on the kinds of foods your Boston Terrier should be eating. A good breeder will send you home with detailed care instructions on feeding your new pet and will also send you home with samples of their food to help get you started. Once again if the breeder disappears on you then chances are they are not a very good breeder.
A reputation for being professional, helpful, knowledgeable and accessible is everything to the business of a Boston Terrier breeder, along with providing quality pets. You should always be able to stay in touch with a legitimate breeder and if you find that you cannot keep your pet later in its life then a good breeder will take the dog back, but without giving you a refund for your purchase price. At least you will know that the Boston Terrier will be taken care of. A fake breeder will not offer this service.
A recognized breeder registry like the American Kennel Club is a standard by which all legitimate breeders adhere to and you should always buy your Boston Terriers only from those breeders in good standing with a breeder registry. If you find yourself in a position where a fake breeder has scammed you contact your attorney to find out if you have any course of action.
