This guy claims to have a pair of african grey parrots for rehoming because they belonged to his mother and as she has passed it brings him sad memories of her. He will ask questions regarding if you can take care of the birds, i replied and explained I had recently lost my english bulldog, he sent me another email and said he also had bulldogs available for rehoming and sent me pictures of some awesome little bulldogs!! He said he was located in Alaska but would take time out from making buriel arrangements for his mother to ship the birds or the dogs to me!! Anyone that is an animal lover for real knows very well nobody would put their loved pets in a plane from Alaska to Texas without knowing where they are going!!! Be very careful, they are also using the name Elisabeth Handerson and uses email [email protected]!
