| Kingcreek Breeders - Warning Hi. I am brand new to the puppy world. We innocently bought a puppy from Kingcreek in Sunridge Ontario, and it was sick with RINGWORM (nasty for children.) 3 children contracted it. THEY REFUSED TO REFUND OUR $2,000. I was told by the Kennel Assoc. to sue them in Small Claims Court. What a hassle. They are unethical breeders. If you go to Ontario Small Claims Court, you will see them listed as a defendant in my file. The kennel is not clean, and our Vet indicated that the only way to get rid of the infection was to purge the Kennel. 30 dogs live with them in the house.. Buyer Beware. They refuse to refund a cent! |

| I hope you little guy is doing better now! I haven't used Kingcreek as a Breeder, but I did find something strange about the owner. Two weeks ago my little guy passed away, I found myself online searching and searching yorkies - anything that would remind me of him. I came across their web-site and reviewed it up and down - enjoyed the pictures, videos, etc. So I decided to write her a thank you email, advising of my little guys passing and how much I enjoyed her web-site - wasn't looking just yet to replace him, etc. This is what I find strange, I didn't get a reply... nothing. Would have been nice to get a thank you on the nice comments about their site, or maybe sorry about my little one passing - but nothing. I find it hard that someone who prides herself on breeding and loving yorkies would not find it in her heart to respond to my email. |

| Kingcreek Kennels I am very surprised to hear this as they have treated me with umbelievable kindness and professionalism. I have adopted two dogs from there and they have been in tip top shape and were happy healthy dogs. They provided me with all the support I needed and went well beyond the average level or service. I would highly recomend this breeder to anyone looking for a Yorkie, Silky or Shih Tzu as you will not only get a great dog but will be treated like one of the family. Thanks so much to Kingcreek and they deserve all the priase thei can get. |

| Kingcreek Kennel in Ontario I cannot speak for anyone else but myself..having bought a beautiful, healthy smart chock full o beans yorkie from Peter Oliviera in sundridge, near huntsville (i asume thats the same kennel) I couldnt be happier. i found them to be extremely clean and actually becaue i had read your message, did a surprise visit because friends of ours had a cottage there. i was confused because i had read your opinion but everyone in sundridge who knew them only had the best to report...and same with me. i ended up dropping in to see for myself and ended up buying a nice boy whose changed my life . iam most happy with kingcreek and the owners. sorry you had such an experience. having not met you but them...maybe emotional? i even askede them about you and after seeing how very clean they were have to believe my own eyes....hope you resolved whatever prob you had. i think like eveyone else, we all have our good and bad days....cheers! |

| kingcreek kennel client disagrees with claim I have a new pup from kingcreek kennel that is a wonderful addition to our family not only is she gorgeous, great temperment and healthy she is clean. she was bathed by Anita the breeder before i received the pup. She also delivered the pup to me because i have a disability and ill mother. not many breeders do this. In addition my poup was vet checked next day by my vet and was in perfect health. Anita and Pedro have become friends of mine because of our mutual love of dogs and she keeps in contact with me on a regular basis. I can personally vouch for her character and her husband;s as reputable breeders with nothing but the best intentions for her dogs, I have done my home before and after finding kingcreek kennel and not only are they not a puppy mill they give u health guarantees on the pup u purchase, something i wish i had for my late airedale terrier. There is always one bad apple in the crop of delicius ripe ones and ths post is terrible and needs to be removed because the claims areFALSE. THIS POST IS TO REASSURE ANY PROSPECTIVE BUYERS THAT THEY ARE LEGITIMATE BREEDERS THAT LOVE THEIR DOGS AND CARE FOR THEM AS IF THEY WERE CHILDREN, ALL THE BEST BARB SPEYER |

| Always very interesting when a newbie pops up and first thing starts defending a back yard breeder/puppy mill (which this place clearly is!) who doesn't care about their pups, just the bottom line! $2000.00 for a sick yorkie, give me a break!

| I do not know or have any dealings with this breeder, but if I were looking for a puppy there are red flags for me, IMO: - They breed several different breeds - They breed "designer dogs" (though they talk about breeding for the betterment) - They use the word "teacup" - They do not have pics of the parents - They are advertising their dogs as being on sale! Slashing prices from $1000 to $500 for Yorkies, Biewers, etc.. How many dogs does one have that they would advertise them as being on sale at 50% off the price!
