If the dog got there alive and healthy then you should of paid him full price. He is the one that has to put fuel in his tank and keep his vehicle road worthy. There are a lot of things that can make you late, road construction, flat tires, traffic. I will also throw in one other thing, the dog haulers talk and he will let other haulers know what you have done, good luck getting one to go out of there way to help you if they remember you. I would call the guy up and pay him the full price. because when it comes down to it he is just trying to make a living and pay his bills just like you and I. Just my two cents.

You agreed up front to $300, The job was done. A man of his word would have paid up what was owed. You certainly had every right to let him know you were not satisfied with his service, you have a right not to recommend him to others in the future, you don't have to be happy with the guy. But you agreed on $300, the job was done and you owe him the $300. I think you have an obligation to write that man a check for $30 and get in the mail today.
To answer your question, yes, I think you done wrong.

So, how did this cost you $30? "Convenience" doesn't count.

Would you have paid him $30 more if he had been earlier, or if he gave the dog a bath? I doubt it.

Pay him what you agreed on.

You might need another dog hauled, someday.

Agreed $300. I would have paid him full amount and voiced my feelings on the late arrival,none the less dog made it, in good shape i hope things happen. I have a business and order alot of parts, sometimes they don't get here when should and even get lost in the cracks and have to call and find out where and if they were shipped yet, but when they send me the bill got to be paid regardless I did finally recieve merchandise just maybe not when i should have gotten it. $30.00 is not worth all the problems and thats part of the problem today a mans word was a binding contract of truth,and pride jmo

I under stand where some of you guys are coming from. I have owned my own business, and as a business owner you also have to under stand that the customers time is worth something also. By not being there when you say you will, can cause a problem for there schedule. Not to mention he showed up at 4 am. In my opinion as a business owner, he did the job, but not in the time he said it would be done. There for he should of offered some sort of discount to make things right in the first place. For a buisness, word of mouth is the best advertising. Things don't always go as planned. Thats just my way of doing buisness.

You can add more and more but you ask and now you got answers. Again, $300 was the agreed upon price, the job was completed, unless late delivery penalties were discussed upfront, you owe the man the agreed upon price.

The way I look at it there was a breech of contract on both parties. A man tells me something I'm going to hold him to it and that's what I expect. I'll trust anyone once the next time depends on how honest you were the first time. If the man told him saturday night then that's when it should have been delivered ,no excuses. Don't tell somebody what they want to hear to get thier buisness, tell them what your able to do and keep your word.

Maybe that thirty bucks will make him think twice the next time he wants to blow smoke to land a job.

The hauler also agreed to deliver within a certain time period, not a day and a half later. Don't agree to something you can't make good on just to land a job.

Have you ever tried to do what these folks are doing? Trying to pick up and deliver around everyone elses schedule is tough

Some don't want them picked up or delivered past a certain time which makes the haulers spend lost time waiting.

I could go on and on.....

I have one being delivered this morning as a matter of fack. Did I want to get in my truck and drive to Ohio and back (to SC) for what they are charging? Hell no! I couldn't do it! Not with gas prices the way they are. Could you? Now you stiffed him his little bit of fuel money til his next pickup. Shame on you.

I agree today time is money. A breech of contract should result in a discount.

My point is there are two sides to every story. You don't know what might have caused him to be late.

And the driver paid the price.

That's what's wrong with our county. The middleman pays the price and the rich keep getting richer.

Glad you got your dog.

Saturday night I would have told the computer jockey/broker/owner if the dog wasn't delivered on time then he needs to discount his delayed service, a few hours is forgivable not 30 hours JMHO

Pay for the service and then don't use him in the future if you weren't happy. $30 didn't do much for the missed work you lost and all these opinions you're getting won't change anything either. In the long run with $300 to the hauler & $200 in lost wages for not working Sat. night you'd likely been as well off getting the dog yourself.

I've never had a pup hauled to me but I have had one or two that were sent with a hauler. I think one if them was later than what they had told the new owner and the other one on time. Best I can remember the one that was late was paid the full price.

Seems to me you asked everyone's opinion and then when they said you messed up you got upset with the answers.

You owe the man $30.00

I would have said that before had I known so many people factor in all the little specific details. I feel I deserved the discount though, just based off of the principle that the agreed upon wasn't done.

Better getting your dog late, than being notified that it was killed or severly injured in an accident because of time restraints for delivery.
