Would anyone know if we can find such a puppy here in Dubai ?

Best regards,
Catherine

Thank you for being level headed and doing your research, there are many that are ruled by their heart and not their head which is why I posted - but I'll save you a trip... don't go and look at them, they will almost 99.99999% (I can't say 100% as miracles do happen, but... you know what I mean!) be from a puppy farm, although they will undoubtedly show you paperwork that '[i'>proves[/i'>' without a doubt otherwise. I wouldn't trust it for one moment. And 9K... ouch!!

Oh, that's somewhat surprising to hear but well noted. We would never buy a dog without knowing its full background anyway. Having had two top of the line Beagles for 12 years gives you a bit of experience :) The Animal World dogs (they have two) are not exactly given away at 9k so will still check them out. The origin is Hungary so was already a little suspicious. Shall let you know the findings. Kind regards, Catherine

Please don't buy a dog from a pet shop here, most likely they will be from a puppy farm (even if the paperwork they may show you looks genuine) even though you may feel really sorry for the dog and want to rescue it. If you buy this one, then another one will replace it and it just fuels this awful trade. If there are none that need to rehomed at one of the many shelters, and your heart is set on this particular breed, then please consider paying a little more, doing some lengthy research and bring one in from a reputable, Kennel Club proven breeder from another country. In the long run you will probably save money as a lot of the pet shop animals are inbred (even though their paperwork may say otherwise) and come with a lot of health problems that won't be apparent until you have fallen in love with it.

Thank you so much for the answers. Had done the google bit but only found old expired ads. Called Animal world and will go there tomorrow. They are however 9 months old but let's see. Thanks again, Catherine Please don't buy from THIS pet shop, actually any pet shop you are just wasting your money. Please look at rehoming one first.

Animal World Mankhool Street had one a couple of weeks ago. It was advertised as a Jack Russel, but it had the rough coat and long legs, was a Parson no doubt about it. HTH's

It's doubtful. You can register your interest with the shelters or look on Dubizzle and shop noticeboards to see if someone is trying to home one.
