Anna Duggar's $2K Puppies Amid Josh’s Financial Struggles in Prison
Scandalous Duggars: Anna's Pricy Puppy Venture While Josh Serves Time for Child Sex Abuse
The drama-filled world of reality TV royalty, the Duggar family, is back in the spotlight, and this time it's not just about their numerous brood or patriarch Jim Bob's eccentricities. No, this time we're diving into the shocking business ventures of Anna Duggar, Josh's wife of 17 years, who's been raking in the dough by selling her prized English Cream Golden Retrievers puppies for a whopping $2,000 each.
But what's even more astonishing is that Anna's made it clear that these adorable pups come with a hefty price tag, and no, we're not just talking about the adoption fee. According to an Instagram post (which has since been deleted, probably due to all the heat she was getting) that TheScholarlyNote.com got its hands on, Anna requires every potential dog owner to cough up a $500 deposit, plus fill out a questionnaire and sign a contract before they can even think about bringing their new furry friend home. Talk about a steep price of loyalty!
Anna's Golden Grove Pups website proudly boasts that her dogs are certified by the American Kennel Club (AKC) and come with all sorts of perks, including thorough health testing to ensure the highest standards of health, temperament, and structure. Each pup is also microchipped and comes with an official AKC registration, because, you know, authenticity is everything.
But what's really got tongues wagging is that Josh Duggar, Anna's husband of 17 years, is currently serving out his 12-year sentence at FCI Seagoville in Dallas, Texas. The convicted sex offender was slapped with a lengthy prison term for "knowingly" receiving and distributing child pornography, including the infamous Peter Scully video depicting the rape and torture of three young girls, one as young as 18 months old.
Josh's earliest possible release date is October 2, 2032, but even then, he'll be stuck with 20 years of supervised release, during which time he'll have no unsupervised contact with minors, including his own children. And let's not forget the online activity monitoring by his probation officer – talk about a digital straitjacket!
Now, one might wonder how Josh is coping behind bars, but it seems that his family and friends have cut ties with him financially. In fact, he was so desperate for help that he wrote a letter to an appeals judge requesting a court-appointed attorney because, get this, he had only 22 cents in his account as of April! It's no wonder that Anna is cashing in on her puppy business – Josh's financial woes are certainly no secret.
The Duggars' eldest child, Josh, has been behind bars for quite some time now, and it's surprising that Anna hasn't divorced him yet. But then again, the two have a history of sticking together through thick and thin (or at least, through Josh's various scandals). The TLC network actually canceled their reality show 19 Kids and Counting after Josh's molestation scandal broke in 2015.
But what's even more shocking is that Anna would often accompany her minister father, Mike Keller, to preach to inmates behind bars. One wonders if this experience has given her a unique perspective on the justice system – or perhaps it's just a way for her to feel good about herself while her husband serves time for his heinous crimes.
And speaking of family milestones, Anna will be celebrating their son Mason's 8th birthday this Friday, while the couple marks 17 years of marriage on September 26. One can only imagine what Josh might have in store for him when (and if) he gets out of prison – supervised release is a long way from family time.
TheScholarlyNote.com reached out to Anna for comment, but it seems she's keeping mum about her puppy business and the recent developments in her husband's case. Perhaps she'll come clean about what really goes on behind those closed doors at Golden Grove Pups?
