i did used to put a long warning ad at the top of each page once a week..cant do it now.. i thought speech was free!!! roast beef easier to post and keep posts up but preloved would take it of when they found it and id put it back.. cant repeat the emails i sent them. I was banned, now im sort of watched. if i advertise anything (at the moment its a table and chairs) my ad has to be approved as they dont trust me not to cause trouble and stop them getting all those £5's from farmers and scammers.

You're an angel of mercy! At least the sheps will get a decent home, and the lady will know that she has done her best by them.

I used to do the same when I fostered cats for Cats Protection. It can get you in a pickle sometimes, though.

I once ended up having find a home urgently for a mum and 10 kittens that were advertised for free on Freeads. I phoned the farmer (whose property they had been dumped on) and got some more info about them, and then rang around all the nearest rescues to him to see who had space. One lady did (who rescued cats using her own money) and she took them in. I felt quite guilty lumbering them on her so I sent her some money to pay for their food for the next few weeks!

Don't even get me started. I just found this advert. Exactly the same set up as the idiot I bought Anya from 7 months ago. She bought a pup, bred her at just over 1 year, sold the pups and then got rid. Anya had never been walked or socialised, came with a whole bundle of issues that we have worked hard to calm. And she claims her last dog passed away. I'm livid an have told her so.

Just thought id add. My daughter is dyslexic and her spelling is terrible.Like that of a child.. Despite that she is not stupid and this shows when reading something she has written. Even when reading an advert you can tell the difference between a decent person who has trouble spelling and a morally uneducated person with no sensibility who is probably stupid in most aspects of life..
