The True Heir to the Acorn Monarchy 
] Families tricked into leasing expensive dogs they thought they were buying | Poors cant do math
At the store Marcano and McNeal visited, the only things required to least a pet were a valid driver’s license, an email address and an active checking account. It was also required that you make at least $1,000 a month.
Pet store employees offer the financing or lease options, but the lenders are third-party companies. Customers never see or speak with an actual representative. The application and approval process is all done on your smartphone.
The two customers claim the final terms of the deal were not revealed at the time, inside the store, and their contracts were emailed directly from the lender. When they opened those emails the following day, they found that the contracts were complicated and difficult to sift through.
McNeal said she thought she was paying $3,000 for her dog in a payment plan, but the lease contract showed she was paying $300 a month for 24 months. That totals to more than $7,200. She also had the option to purchase her dog, but would have to pay an additional $450, bringing the grand total to $7,649.

People here pay upwards of $7k for the neurotic anxious mess of a breed called the Cavoodle. I know three people who own one: Two of the dogs are on long-term puppy prozac, while the other chucks a massive wobbly if left on its own for longer than 30 seconds.
The Cavoodle boom is proof that wealth doesn't buy intelligence.
