This kennel bought 2 dogs from me so I looked up the kennel and WOOOOOOOAAAHHHH!!!!! They've been on a spending spree. I think there's a glitch here!

Possibly not... puppies don't count towards the kennel limit, so it's not like the game would stop them buying all those dogs (which are mostly 11 days old or younger). What they have done is spent ALL their money, though, I would think.

What is even more selfish is being slightly ok with the dogs going there. My Gordon Setters were finishable, but I have too many dogs to session. I'm just glad someone bought them. It's helping some accounts out, I know that $300 helped me out!

ETA: holy cow! They didn't have that many puppies earlier!

It seems they would have paid over $11k, if each puppy was at least $100? Is this even possible as a member for only one day with a starting salary of $2.5-5k? I thought a negative balance prohibits you from buying more dogs, though I could be mistaken.

Bought two from me. The money is nice, but I hope that they just aren't wasted pups.

Over my many kennels, they've bought about 20. I suppose we have to say to ourselves that money makes the dog world go around!!

I sold three. Two were finishable, but with how low dog sales are, I'm just happy for the money. happy :)

There are 6 adults in the kennel now, so I think the government handout is over. sad :( lol

A negative balance only prohibits you if you have to make an offer on a puppy or dog, if it's on auto sale then you can buy them now matter what your balance is. I always look first to see how many a kennel has and if it's something that i would normally keep or want in a good home it's on approval only. I've lost too many dogs over the years to take chances anymore, or pay the $300 to reclaim it when the kennel gets abandoned.
