Is it safe to use PayPal as payment for goods/pets

Planning to get a dog but wasn’t sure if PayPal is safe to purchase dog and what can PayPal do if it’s scam?

That depends on MANY factors (including HOW you pay) all listed in Paypals buyer protection policy for you to read so you can risk assess your transactions.
Legal (bottom right of Paypals pages) > user agreement > buyer protection.
