m) We do not allow pregnant pets to be advertised.

n) If you are breeding and advertising dogs for sale and require a dog breeding licence from your local council, you need to be registered as a Commercial Breeder on the Site, and provide us with a copy of your licence. If we suspect you need to be licensed and have not provided your licence details, we reserve the right to decline your adverts and we may report this to your local authority.

o) We reserve the right to decline any adverts or ban, close or suspend any User's account if we suspect you are behaving in an irresponsible way.

All buyers confirm that we are not able to check the truth or accuracy of any statement made by any person advertising on the Site. You accept that you have the responsibility to verify all statements made and all documentation offered by an advertiser. You understand that we do not have any means of verifying the honesty of any advertiser and that if you do send money using an online service, we have no responsibility to you if you lose money. You should confirm that the advertiser is a genuine person. You can do this by visiting the pet at the advertiser's home. If they make excuses or try to ask for money or a deposit without seeing the pet, or if the advertiser attempts to deliver the pet or meet you at any other location than their own home, then we advise you not to agree to this.
