For months, scam atists posing as sellers have been using stolen photos in their ads, claiming they are pictures of dogs for sale. I doubt very many, if any of the ads on Puppyfind are legitimate, at least not in the French Bulldog category. My dogs' photos have been stolen from several websites and posted in ads under the different names, ages, sexes with different seller names and multiple locations. Sometimes they are posted with the watermark or copyright insignia. Each time, I notify Puppyfind, and they do NOTHING. I threaten the seller with legal action and sometimes they remove the ad only to post again a day or two later with the same photo or another stolen photo. Every, let me stress EVERY time that I have gone on Puppyfind to get the url for fraudulent ads with my bulldogs' photos, I find a friend's dog's photo in an ad or a breeder's photo from their website or a photo stolen from the Dogster site. It is ridiculous. The sellers should be prosecuted since they are obviously fleecing unsuspecting buyers and Puppyfind should be held liable for knowingly allowing them to do so.
Please if you are looking for a puppy, this is not the place to find your dog. If you do receive a puppy, and that is doubtful, the chances that it will be healthy are slim to none. Find a breeder if you want a purebred dog or go to a shelter and adopt but this site operates with no thought for their legal or ethical responsibility to the buyers.
