| Poochie Koochie, Dixie Pups..owner accused of selling sick puppies!! BAD BREEDER!!Related Links Video: Sick Puppies MIAMI (WSVN) -- Authorities seized a pet store after the owner is accused of selling sick puppies. According to officials, 52-year-old Julie Soutullo, owner of Poochie Koochie in Aventura, has not followed Florida's Pet Lemon Law. Soutullo is being accused of bringing puppies from puppy mills in South America. Experts say puppies that cost $10 in Argentina, can be sold here for a $1,000. "This woman has a history of selling sick animals and just tearing people's families apart. It's horrible. And we're very pleased today to be here and be in the process of just shutting her down," said Kathleen Labrada, Animal Services Investigator. Soutullo was selling animals without the official certificate of veterinary inspection, officials said. One of her clients, Lee Aken says he bought a puppy for his children from Soutullo, and it died a day and a half later. "And devastating. I mean, here you bring home a puppy. They want to play with it. They're looking at it and they can't get near it. I'm keeping it alive, i'm keeping it away from them because there's something wrong," said Aken. At the pet store, agents say they found medicine for treating sick puppies. The Department of Revenue seized boxes of records and computers. According to the search warrant, the state suspects the failure to pay sales tax, file returns and the filing of false or fraudulent returns. Authorities say before Soutullo opened Poochie Koochie, she operated Dixie Pups. Both businesses have generated multiple complaints. TO SEE VIDEO GO TO..www.wsvn.com channel 7 news |

| I don't know specifically, but a friend of a friend does import them from a latin american country. I know because when I was looking to buy she told me her friend was going to have a shipment in. The lady was selling them for about $500. They were not going to be 5-6 pounds but in the larger size range. I opted and bought them here in the US and got burned once. |

Happy to report: State Attorney's office and Julie accepted the plea bargain. She will get 3 three years probation, (ONLY) 20 days house arrest (she should get a taste of actual jail time and live with woman like herself), cease and desist on selling puppies and a few more things. Also, must pay restitution to the people that she ripped off, not sure who's name is on the restitution you need to contact Fredic Kerstien or Nicole Johnson. You will need to know the case # F091912 and M 0742780. I am an victim and I live in California, the puppy she sent me flew in on June 23, I file a complaint with animal control in Florida and Julie wrote back that she does not owe me anything, because (lie) claims the puppy was sent to me in March and the time limited was off. I have shipper copy and Armando Soutullo sign it. I spoke with the District Attorney Nicole Johnson and sent her all the information I have and told me she could help me. I am on disability and a set monthy amount. I pay Julie 1300.00 plus 175.00 for shipping I never got a replacement puppy or my refund.
