reminds me of the real estate agent trick of posting a listing for a home that's too good to be true. when a potential buyer calls that agent, the agent says the home is no longer available, but asks "are you currently working with an agent?"

God I've had people do that to me with dogs. No, I will not be conversing with you further about spending $1000 more on a dog I don't at all want.
I heard you can go greener and get the best deals on the used dogs market.
I (think I) 100% understand the snark, but that’s usually where I’m looking. Not in the aforementioned situation though. So good call?

On a side note— with Toronto salaries we can’t afford a dog anyway outside of getting to come home midday to walk it. Walker fees run close to $500 a month. I’m in love with the rescue Korean Jindos though. They’re like goofier huskies. I just can’t help but look.
