Default SE GAIL AND Starmye Halpain

I had made some phone calls about a week ago and I just got a return phone call from SEGAIL at http://www.epetitepuppy.com/

She states she gets her babies from Starmye Halpain and refers alot of people to her from the Texas Oklahoma area!

Her exact words were (STARMYE) is cheap and you can get a deal done fast!She said that she had company all weekend and all the dogs she has she gets from Starmye She says Starmye had good prices and by me going to Starmye will get me the dog much CHEAPER than going through her (SEGAIL) because of shipping

RUN FROM THIS WEBSITE! BE CAREFUL! EMOTIONAL AND FINANCIAL HEARTACHE on the horizon I promise you !!!


If I am guessing she sells to many others ... Be careful guys!

It doesn't reaaly make any since to share her way of making money. Some people are crazy! I would think she wouldn't want to appear as a broker and it is very 'cookoo' to tell someone that you basically double or triple the price of a dog you could have gotten for way less.

Hulbert is in Cherokee County and is only about 15 minutes from where I live. It's the same county that Glenda Beavers (Tsa La Gi) lives in, in fact probably not far from her too.

Sometimes I'm embarrassed and ashamed to live in this part of the country with all of the mills and totally unethical byb's. I've almost changed my username location for this very reason.

To make matters even worse I live in a community with Amish residents too, and they have their monthly dog auction within 5 miles of my home. I went once and cried for two days over the poor dogs.

If so many didn't buy from these types of breeders and petstores, their market would collapse. Then they would have to rely on other means of making a living like, God forbid, A REAL JOB!!

oh gosh, I couldn't go to a dog auction...just the thought of them make me so angry! I just can't stand the sick people breeding, brokering, and selling dogs to make money.

I knew better than to go and should have stayed away. I thought of trying to see about getting it stopped and felt like I at least had to go witness one firsthand. There is no way to stop them as they are legal, sadly!

It broke my heart seeing corgis go for $1.00. I couldn't make myself think about where they might be going. The sale ads were disgusting talking about "this one being a proven breeder" or "has had 4 litters but still able to breed" and it would be a 5 year old bitch.

You don't even want to know about the caliber of people in the bidding area......let's just say "trash"....sitting around shoving in frito chili pie and dougnuts, all the while bidding pennies on a life. For the love of God, when a $3 lunch costs more than a dog's life something is terribly wrong.

Default Se Gail Just Called

She just asked why I was talking about her on yorkie talk !


HELLO she referred me to Starmye Halpain in Oklahoma


THAT IS why the posts are here.



SE GAIL~

Since you read this let me recapture our conversation.

You stated that you did not have what I was looking for but that "YOUR GOOD FRIEND DID" and she lived in Oklahoma which was close to me and would cut you out as the middle man. You then said if you do not have what others are looking for you immediately send your business to her.

I proceeded to tell you that I had spoke with Starmye and she did not have pictures of the parents.. I also told you that Starmye could have cared less than to be on the phone or answer any questions..

You proceeded to say that she is in business making money and this was a growing business and I did not need to be so demanding in wanting to talk to her. There were plenty in line and selling the pup was no problem....

Im sorry ,

I wash my hands ... please do not call me and yes I did hang upon you when you did call and to be honest whatever message you left I did not hear as I immediately hit delete....

No problems here just if you are associated with a BYB and Puppy Mill I feel the world should know and YOU ARE! You told me yourself....

LOL Looks like a broker/Greeder opened her mouth when she shouldn't have. Since she saw this thread, maybe she can join YT and learn that DOGS SHOULD NEVER BE A BUSINESS!!! People like that absolutely make me SICK! I would never ever ever buy from a breeder that didn't encourage me asking questions...and I expect them to ask me plenty of questions as well.

Unfortunately dog/puppy auctions are as common as going to a Flea Market on a Saturday morning. As a matter of fact at least one dog auction is held at an Amish owned Flea Market in Ohio. In Pennsylvania "Beauiful Dutch Country" (as they advertise it) that part of the country is LOADED with the "Oh so religious" Amish. The Amish are the BIGGEST culprits of Puppymills. Just tour the country side and look beyond the beauty and into the large barns that house thousands of breeding, uncared for dogs. It's illegal in PA to have puppy auctions and once a month the Amish travel across the line to Ohio to sell their "Product." I say product because this is what the Amish consider a dog or puppy. It's as common as selling breeding and slaughtering for food. What is sad it that many do not realize that not only are their puppymills in exsitance but many Parot Mills too which are just as bad if not worse. So please just when not buying a puppy from a petstore do not buy a bird or ANY form of live animal or anything for that matter from any of these stores that sell LIVE animals. You may pay a little more but buy your food, toys, supplies etc. from a pet store that clearly does not support the selling of animals. Even buying a can of food puts the $$ into the pocket for these stores to stay open. Elaine
