It's a scam!
Any pure bred dog that is "free" you should be leery of... along with anyone saying they live in Charlotte but are in Africa for a Christian Missionary, or transferred for work for 4 months to Santa Monica CA.

Hello Thanks for your interest in adopting this my lovely puppies for they are still available and just to let you know more, they are by name called (Della and Ottis) and 12 weeks old.i am just so concerned about their welfare and hope you can assure me of that.They are home raised, potty trained and well socialized and gets along perfectly with children and other pets.they are pure breed puppies and registered. They just had their shots and will comes with a year health guarantee. They love to be carried around and cuddled and full of caressing and kisses. They come alongside the following - A year health guarantee -AKC registration papers -Pedigree papers -An air conditioned crate -Vet record -Food samples -Puppy toys I am giving them out for adoption because of my newly acquired Job as an auditor which demands a lot of my time and entails a lot of traveling. As such, i have little or no time to spend with them.They are really in need of a home where they will be provided with all the love, care and attention they are being deprived of here. Cost is $270 each with delivery inclusive.I am currently on a 4 months auditing assignment in Seattle ,Washington (U.S.A) which is the more reason i am giving them out . however, i can have any of the puppy delivered to you if you can assure me that you will take proper care of them by answering to the below questions What state are you located..................? Do you have other pets........................? Do you promise to take proper care of them...............? To provide pictures so i see how they are doing.........? Let me know if you need a male or female or both ……. ?
Thanks so much and get back to me if you think you can provide agood home.

Hello, I am happy to know that you are interested in providing a home for abulldog puppy. We still have 3 puppies available so pleasesee them on out web page www.kellybulldogpuppies.com Jack, Jerry andBrendy are the last three i have left, Jack is very sweet,laid back and cuddly.He has been hand raisewith children and has a great energy to play from AM to PM.He is thickand has a beautiful walking style.His vaccinations are all up to date& he is health guaranteed. On most occasions he would rather sit inthe lap of his owner than join in the play of other dogs. If a pricewhere to be awarded for companionship, the winner would surely beJack. he is totally forgiving and loving when it comes to humans. heis actually a great boy. Jerry is outgoing,playful and happy to make friends.More than withany other puppy dog, his character and personality is oftenmisunderstood. Even his intelligence is sometimes questioned. Hisnatural protectiveness is probably most manifest in his behaviortowards small children or animals. His natural Propensity to defendthe smaller ones makes him sometimes intervene even when any of mykids get told off by me or my partner. Of course, like in all litters,individual pups differ greatly, he is not lazy couch potatoes ofbreed. His faithfulness, his stubbornness, his protectiveness anddevotions to his loved ones is what you will like him for. Brendy is not only from a home where she is very use to kids but sheis also extremely healthy and has a great nature lovelypersonality.She has great conformation with her rose ears,lowset,spike tail,beautiful shape head,flashy coat and wonderful thickbody type.It's no doubt that her excellent quality and type is aresult of her outstanding personality which stands the best of all ourpuppies. she tend to be a little aloof or disinterested with otherdogs but crave the attention and approval of her owner and family.Part of her charm is that she looks so tough but aren't at all. She isbrave to the extreme and will try to guard and defend her owner if shethinks he/she is being threatened. There are a few issues which I will like to make you understandbefore we proceed;1st. I do NOT place our puppies in homes where they will just bebreeding and making money without love and care giving to them likewhat I do or even more. 2nd. we do NOT let our puppies go to homes where they would live outside! 3rd. We will NOT place our puppies with anyone who has any history of child or animal abuse!! 4th. All of our new puppy owners must take time to educate themselveson how to properly care for their unique new puppy. 5th.Last but not the list, we will probably turn down homes that havea large number of other dogs. As long as you can make us understandthat you will share the love in your homes with these puppies, we willconsider placing the puppy of your choice to your home, regardless ofyour location, even if you are not located within a drivingdistance,we do consider shipping as an option. About the general temperament of all three puppies They Conveysimpression of determination, strength and activity. Alert, bold,loyal, dependable, courageous, fierce in appearance, but possessed ofaffectionate nature. Courageous (not vicious or aggressive), anddemeanor should be pacific and dignified. These attributes should becountenanced by the expression and behavior. Please get back to mewith your choice of puppy amongst all three and i shall advice you onthe next step to take towards getting the puppyin your home as soon as possible.The are all 11-12 weeks old.Eachpuppy will cost $460.00.Where you located as well.Thank you once againand have a wonderful time.

I actually found a complaint about Kelly Bulldog Puppies online... of course when I emailed the guy about himself, he didn't respond. Who wouldn't blame him?!

It's pretty bad when you have to put a "buyer beware" stamp on a PUPPY!
