We created Freeads to help people find and rehome pets safely, but it’s still important to stay aware when speaking to advertisers or breeders to arrange a purchase or rehoming.
We have 1000's of genuine breeders and advertisers, but we still encourage you to act responsibly and buy safely.
How to stay safe:
- Always message through Freeads, photo's and videos can be sent with ease.
- Take your time to make a descision, research and ask many questions.
- Always use PetSafe for pet payments - Its safe and you are in control.
- Don't make any private payment without visiting a pet or viewing an item first.
- Avoid anyone who pressures you, it's your money, be responsible with it.
- Visit breeders or advertisers with a friend, never go alone!
Things to watch out for:
- Breeders who won't use PetSafe, its FREE for all breeders, if they have a UK bank and ID.
- Breeders trying to pull you away from Freeads for communications and payments.
- Requests for payment before you’ve seen the pet.
If something doesn’t feel right, stop and review the situation. You can always report the advertiser and get advice before continuing, just use the button below to reach out to our lovely support team.
