This whole story just seems so shady to me. To many things just don't add up, starting with the pics of Charlie romping around in a backyard big enough to romping around in, but then he supposedly never really got exercise but a walk on a leash.
Oh yes, a 20 foot square of grass is a TON of room.
And honestly, this "photo shoot" of Charlie was a rare occasion my friend had a day off and her parents/siblings were on vacation, he didn't get that kind of stimulation/play every day. When the family was home, and/or she was at work, Charlie was in his pen.
My friend is actually really upset about all of this, and yes, the breeder has been giving threats. And if I'd have known what a nutter this breeder was, and the second owner for that matter, I'd never have posted about him in the original forum I posted this at. From what my friend had told me about the second owner wanting rid of him, I didn't think she'd go wacky when she was told she'd possibly found somewhere for him.
I apologize for all the confusion, was only trying to help out a dog that IMO was and has the potential to be a great pet.
