Hi Thomas,
I'm sorry you are not happy with the results. You can elect that people can just send you a message through the website, if you wanted to take your phone number off the ad. Please reach out to suppor@dogs.ie if you need any help changing the ad.
“I have not got any replies to my ad for my puppies so far.. I have reduced my price, bumped up my add since my add went live on Thursday. one lady did ring alright but never got back to me. I do notice there are quite alot of Yorkies for sale in the site. I'm hoping that buyers will contact me soon. I know this is not the fault of dogs.ie and previously last year I sold puppies and got multiple replies but it's not the case this time. I have reduced my asking price by 250 now for pure bred Yorkie puppies and still no enquiries.”
Hi Mary,
Sorry you have not gotten than many enquiries.
We do have 20 other ads open for Yorkshire Terriers at the moment, so there is a bit of competition between breeders. I've updated your title to make it clearer that you are selling purebred Yorkies (rather than their names) hopefully that will help catch the eye of some people in the coming days.
Hi Sean
I'm sorry you are not happy with your Staffordshire Bull Terrier dogs ad. Looking at your ad, it is currently the most expensive ad in the category. I also see you've only updated 3 photos, I'd recommend you adding in a few more images (you can upload up to 10). Your ad has been seen about 200 times so far.
“The add process is expensive and unessarialry restrictive .also the quality of many new owner is very entitled and lacking any basic education nessary for dog ownership ...would like to see the focus shift to tackle bad dog buyers who subsequently dump their dogs”
Hi Anon
I’m sorry you are not happy with our service.
I see you have placed other ads with us and our call log shows we spoke for over an hour last week and multiple times before that, and we helped with an introduction to the Department of Agriculture for you.
We do have resources in place help prepare people for their puppy purchase, such as our ebook with over 100 pages of content.
The price of ads is up front before you purchase and has not changed since August 2019.
Ads have had to be locked down as some people were putting in other dogs for sale or information that was not longer accurate. I hope you can understand this. If you email support@dogs.ie you can have your ad changed at any time.
Hi Emma
We currently have an issue with some users and their messages. Sorry about this inconvenience.
Messages have only been unavailable since today, Saturday 1/4/23 and should be fixed overnight.
Hi Eileen,
We have answered your calls about getting access to your account, so we are a bit confused about this review. In fact we answered your call earlier today.
Our support email address is always the fastest way to get replies, support@dogs.ie
Hi Sinead,
Sorry you are not 100% happy.
We have had to lock ads after they are published due to people selling different dogs from the same ad. If you email support@dogs.ie we can help to edit the ad for you.
“Site does not take into account non email or non mobile phone sellers. I live in very poor signal area, and this causes delay in receiving interest in pups. I did provide landline number on Ad but buyers ignored this, and were timewasters, obviously did not read any details of pups and parents provided on Ad.”
Hi John, Thanks for your review and I'm sorry you are not happier with it.
Not getting any calls is a bit strange, generally people will get some calls at least. I've updated your ad there a little to read a bit better on mobile phones. Hopefully this will help to get you some callers. We do have a higher number of dogs available at this time of the year, so there is quite the competition between sellers.
Hi Anon,
I'm sorry you are not happy with the results of your ad.
Your ad has been seen over 450 times since it was published, we do have 20 ads in the Springer Spaniel category and 63 individual dogs, so there is a bit of competition between sellers.
Your ad would also be the 2nd highest price dogs of the 20 in the category too.
Hi Ewa,
Your ad has been seen over 400 times since it was posted. Did you receive any callers for it ?
As far as we are aware we are the most popular Irish site for dogs for sale.
We have 7 ads in the Rottweiler category and 20 individual dogs and your dogs would be on the top based on price, so this might be one reasons for a poorer response.
“Have n t had one call I feel because of the volume of dogs for sale on your site the ad goes from the front page very fast and in my experience not many people want to scroll through loads of pages and prospective buyers aren’t all aware you can look up a specific breed. The price per advert of 50 euro should at least include 3 free bump ups not be charged a further 12 euro per bump up Also you don’t seem to be able to edit your initial write up as description I e vaccinating etc changes the longer you have the pups”
Hi Susan,
Thanks for the review, and sorry you have not gotten any calls yet.
You can edit the price and the ad title, as well as the images.
We have had to lock the description / breed & microchip information on ads, as people were selling multiple dogs from the same ad.
If you let me know what you'd like changed I can edit it for you.
“Admin are rude and annoying to be frank,and it’s quite expensive to advertise
Annoying that you can’t edit ads or change info after they have been initially advertised ,it’s ridiculous .
Far too much info required for such a basic thing as an ad .”
Hi Daniel,
I'm sorry you didn't have a 5 star experience. I've checked our support tickets and I don't see any recent ones from you.

Hi Janos, I'm sorry you are not happy with the experience. Our prices are mentioned on the homepage and the ad creation page, and we are very upfront about the prices, there should not have been any surprise about that.
“I felt the number of inquiries I had was very low for the amount paid. I decided not to bump my ad as I didn't want to pay a further 12 euros on top of the 50 already paid.”
Hi Sarah
I’m sorry you didn’t have a great experience.
Your ad has been seen over 700 times since it was posted. Generally this would result in the two dogs being sold. If you need extra time in your ad please do let us know and we can reopen it for you.
