Hi Antoinette,
We currently have a high number of Cockapoos for sale. Checking our stats it's 49 ads and over 140 dogs listed as available, so there is a lot of supply of puppies of this breed and demand has come down since the lifting of COVID restrictions.
Hopefully, you will get some callers soon.
Hi Ross,
Sorry you can't see the stats directly and that you've had a bad experience. I'll arrange to get that to you in a graph. Our system is saying that your ad was viewed 362 times so far since it was published on Friday.
Hi David, I'm sorry you feel like this and that you haven't had much interest in your ad.
I did take a look at your ad, and I see only two live photos, and they look very similar. I'd recommend adding some more photos of your puppies, so people could get a better idea of the dog. There are currently 822 open ads with 2,128 available dogs, so there is a lot of competition with breeders at the moment to get buyers attention.
Hi Maryna, looking at your ad, your dogs are listed for €2,500 and are not IKC registered, so this might be one issue. Most of the other Bulldogs are being listed for lower prices, https://dogs.ie/dogs/bulldog/ and this might be the issue.
Hi Paula, I’m sorry you feel this way. We tried everything to get your ad up for you, even taking the details from your emails to put them in the ad and to put that in an filled out ad for you.
I’m sorry you had such an issue placing an ad.
“While uploading data is simple. The constant addition of new dogs pushes you further down the page,( I has on page 12 in 2 days), this forces to pay more in order to bump up the page but yet again it doesn’t take long to move several pages back. It is even scarier when you look at the ads that are added and find that 3 to 4 come from the same place, but they just keep getting pushed to the top. This is extremely frustrating especially only time wasters asking to come play with you dog message you. I have yet to get a serious offer for the dog on dogs.ie and am extremely doubtful I will, this experience is a waste of time and money”
Hi Anon,
Thanks for your review, and sorry you haven't had any interest yet. There are currently 708 open ads with 1,776 available dogs, so there are a lot of sellers vying for attention at the moment. This time of year is also a little slower for buyers, who tend to hold off until they have started the school summer holidays.
Your ad, is for a crossbreed mix that's quite rare, so it might be a good idea to explain a little about the expected temperament of these dogs.
Hi Regina
Thanks for your review. I’m sorry you only had a 1 star experience. There are currently 719 open ads with 1,825 available dogs so there is a fair bit of competition for interested sellers.
We had to lock ads for editing as people were selling multiple breeds in the same ad.
I’ll take a look at your ad to see if we can optimise it a bit. If you need anything changed in the ad text, please reach out to us.
Hi Brian, I'm sorry you had such a bad experience. Can you elaborate on how we can make things more user-friendly? We have a new site coming out later this year and we would love to get your feedback.
What types of issues did you experience? Did any of the site work for you?
“Hi I found to have a lot of people looking for a lot lower price and with price of advertising and all the experience involved from 65 euro a bag nuts vacc.chip etc. I can't do it so therefore puppy is not sold. So if you want to help please reduce the price per advert. The reason I wouldn't recommend is it to experience”
Hi Anon, I'm sorry you are not happy with the service and you have rated us 1 star.
Looking at your ad it appears your price at €800 might be higher than the other Doodles on the site. In recent months there has been more supply than demand post COVID-19 and prices have dropped.
We would also encourage you to add a few more images of your dogs, you have only uploaded 3 images so far.
Hi Albert, thanks for your review. I’m sorry you are not happy with your ad.
At about twice the price of other ads in the Bulldog section it might be that your expected price is simply too high for people to reach out. We would also recommend to expand your description a little too, to give some background about the site / dam and your breeding program.
“Firstly for a €50 ad I got hardly any calls (about 5) & the ones I got where from 2 scammers & 2 scumbags trying to get my address so they could come by & rob me & my dogs & a weirdo wanting to sell me a dog (wtf)
I boosted the ad 2ce at €12 a boost and still didn't sell a puppy.
The site is quite hard to navigate & to find & edit ur ad is difficult.
I was ment to have 8 photos to add but was only allowed 5
I don't recommend even though there's not many places to sell ur dogs anymore”
Hi Anon, sorry you were not happy with your experience.
Please reach out to us so we can take a look at the ad to see if we have any suggestions about how best we can help find your dog a new home.
We can also help with the images if you email support@dogs.ie
“Very expensive can’t edit the sit and only have 1 month to sell even when bumped for €12 don’t think I would ever recommend this website if selling puppies again”
Hi Anon, thanks for your review. From your ad I see that 4 of the 5 dogs are listed as sold. I've reached out to you with some ideas on how we can help find a home for the last fellow.
Thanks for your review. Please feel free to reach out to support@dogs.ie with some information about what you think the service is worth, we always welcome feedback. Our prices are clearly displayed on the homepage and when you post an ad, so there shouldn't be any suprises about the cost.
Thanks for your review. We do see less demand for dogs now that things have started to open up around the country. We do get most of the traffic for people looking for dogs. Please reach out to support@dogs.ie if you are having issues with your ad and our staff can see if we can suggest anything for your ad.
