Indeed!!!
She actually didn't pay $6000 for it. She paid $1000 for it from an ad in the Recyclers. I'm not upset that she paid that kind of money for it. I'm upset that she paid a for profit breeder instead of going through a shelter. Pic will come up shortly.

By the way, Fausto. When I started the thread, I had a feeling that either you or Red Dawn would be the first to sound the alarm. Must be a hot day in Modesto.

There's a big difference between paying a good breeder and paying a pet store. There's nothing wrong with wanting a dog with pedigree.

Plus if she's not joking about all this, you're overlooking the fact that you and her talked over not buying a puppy from those stores. Next time she might buy a Special Edition Civic for $30k.

You mean an Acura?

I know a rottie breeder who sells his pups for $1500. His stud has won the National Rotteweiler(sp?) Association championship 3 years running. His competitors paid $20000 for their studs.

I buddy of mine just got one of these. His wife got it, and paid over $3000. He was ok with it though, at least that's what he tells me.

I can't even fathom what my response to that kind of expenditure on the part of my fiancee would be, because if she was like that, I wouldn't have gone anywhere past the first date with that stupid foolhardy bitch with zero concept of financial responsibility.

Run. Now.

Oh, and this Civic SE = Acura = $30K business? Did I miss something?

I paid $6000 for him.

Unless you're filthy rich, dump her. I wouldn't be with someone that irresponsible with my money. Hell, I probably won't ever be with anybody anyhow (or, if I was, wouldn't give her access to my money).

This has been another relationship advice post from a chronically single CS major =)

Hope to God the place will take it back within 30-days... I would freaking die if something like that happened to me. I don't think any kind of puppy is worth that much money. Guy at the pet store probably just pocketed over $5,000 and quit.

I don't know of any pet shops with $6k dogs.

Doesn't make any sense at all....even from a champion breeder there are few $6k dogs out there.

I like pound puppies and strays, I think they have a way better genetic background most times and personality.

When I get a Shiba Inu I will problaby have to find an actual breeder or deal with adopting one in Japan / overseas and dealing with the export and quaritine process.

My wife wants a Corgi (and will be named Ein actually) and we have seen lots of those in adoption facilities.
