First email

Hello
Thanks very much for your interest in my precious micro teacup Pomeranian puppies. Sorry for the late reply. We have a Male Smooky and a female Cherish. Smooky is a Prince and Cherish is Princess.
Prince and Princess are super sweet!!! They are exceptionally beautiful, exquisite little purse puppies! They are one of the tiniest in the world, they prances around when they gets excited and think all the toys belong to them!
They are very friendly and sociable. Love playing with Kids, Dogs, and other home pets. They are 11 weeks old and weigh only 150 grams each! Can you imagine? they are expected to be about 2 pounds when fully grown.You can easily put them in your purse and go shopping or something, they fit right in. They are very happy and like to give kisses and cuddle. They are sooooo cute. my babies are 100% purebred Poms, you will see it right away, perfect markings with perfect coat.

Prince and Princess will be accompanied with a puppy registration documents, a one year health warranty, vet check-up, food for a week, wee-wee pads, a clean towel and the puppy's favorite toy, vet health examination, Cadillac leach, pedigree, all you need for your new baby. They are up to date on their shots and have been dewormed. If you are interested in any of them (I will have him/her available any time you want)

I will like to know the following from you:
Do you have kids?
Have you ever raised (Owned) a puppy before?
Do you Own Other Pets?
How is your Working Schedule?
Do you want to Breed the puppy?
How Soon Do you Want the puppy?
where are you located?
Do you want the puppy for your self or some one else?
Which of the puppies do you prefer?
Your email address and phone number for more information?

I will be happy to get these details from you so that it can guard me in making a manual which the puppy can take along which will guard you on basics of taking care of him or her and also basics on feeding.
My reason for giving these puppies on adoption is because I just got my Scholarship to further my course in Hawaii and they do not allow Animals to get into Hawaii due to their Strong Quarantine restriction Law. I have developed a strong affection and love for them, but I have little or no choice giving them out. I want them to go only to a loving and approved home. I am giving the puppies for free adoption, they were given to me by late grand mom, so i don't have any reason for selling them. You will be responsible just for the shipping and delivery cost which is $150 for one puppy and $300 for both puppies. Please i really love these puppies and will not like any one who will not be able to take good care of them, if you know you will take care of them and love them, come back to me as soon as possible so that we can proceed. I also insist on your email address and phone number for easy communication ok.

    Payment Hint to customers:
    There are 2 types of money transfers with WESTERN UNION. They are listed below with their characteristics.
    TRANSFER TYPE AIM OF TRANSFER CHARGES DURATION FORACTIVATION
    1. Commercial Transfer Customer - Company $50 12 hours activation
    2.. Casual Transfer To relative or Friend $25 15 minutes activation
    From the above we can conclude that the commercial transfer type is more expensive and slowest, so we do usually advice our customers to use the second Transfer option, which is the casual transfer type, since it is cheaper and fastest. So If you are asked the purpose or why the transfer, say it is a for a relative or friend to avoid high charges and thereby prompting a quick payment activation.
