| Proceed with caution I would not recommend www.pawprintsbythesea.org to anyone. I have had a horrible experience with them and am in the process of trying to get my money back. I never received the dog (not the one in this post). I have read about others online with similar negative experiences. |

| Wow. I'm in shock. I adopted a dog a month ago from this Sarah woman! Except...the rescue name was different. I actually got my dog, but have been unable to get any medical records or registration papers for him. I have tried calling and emailing her a million times! No response. At least I got Jesse, but I have been so angry and frustrated. I guess I got my answer. It was a scam. I wonder if Jesse was stolen and resold, or if they are just a terribly irresponsible resvue. Same name and phone number. |

| coastalk9rescue@aol.com a.k.a. pawprintsbythesea.org yeah, i emailed them like so many times, harassing them. then i woke up this morning and started sending her text messages, threatening and harassing her and guess what? she called me back but i was taking a shower. so anywho, i had my boyfriend call her back, and she gave him another excuse. first excuse was because of something with the transporter. then second time, was because her "director" didn't release the dogs, third time , she told him after a million calls, emails and messages that the reason why she never dropped off the dogs ws because the puppy i was suppose to get has parvo. he asked her why she didnt even bother calling, she said because she didnt want anyone to freak out and its bad for business, meanwhile i'm out $500 which is my half of my total. he then asked her about the mom, because i was suppose to get the mom and pup for $1000 and she said the mom was fine. i made him get her address and the vet's name to verify, and found out that the puppies were indeed sick. but the mom was never taken in for a check. she told him she just had one recently and the vet said that they have not seen an adult yorkie at age 2 at all, only a 7 yr old mom last october. so i'm wondering if she was also trying to sell me a 7yr old mom and not a 2yr old? anyways, she was suppose to call me back, but never did. like always, she never answers her damn phone. i would really like to find out how you receive your dog? she even offered us to visit her home to check out the mom but i live in las vegas, theres no way in hell i can. but my boyfriends sister lives close by but i wouldnt send her there either since parvo is airborne and she might bring it back home to her 2 shih tzus and possibly die from it. i would like to put a stop this place. i also found another person on here who recently got scammed and never received his dog or any explaination regarding them. i also watched online about a special cbs did on puppy mills. on how almost all puppies are from puppy mills mostly from the amish. isn't that crazy? dogs are purchased from poor conditions, thrown in one small crate with more than 4 dogs at a time, and then turn around and sell them to pet stores for over $1000. i'm really upset because i was looking forward to getting my dogs from them but this place is bull.. she even told me they would transport, and obviously they dont because one; the dogs never came (3 times) i was promised and had my hopes up, but no one called to let me know what was going on. i would get one call days after they promised to come only to promise another drop off date. |

P.S. I think this is just a breeder (group) selling their dogs under the umbrella of a rescue.

| I picked up the dog from her home. I know where she lives. Well, technically my boyfriend picked up the dog and he knows where she lives. He said that when he went he could hear dogs barking in the backyard. I sent her a very courteous but strongly worded email the other day, no reply. Perhaps if I threaten to send the police to her front door I will get a call back. Although at this point, I don't see her providing any help. |

| The police will not do anything. The only avenue I can see unless someone has a better idea..is to report her to the Humane Society, Animal control, city government for an investigation. You could possibly also take her to small claims court but are you out of money or only paperwork.

| i have sent them a few dozen emails.. threatening them that i would call local spca and cops. she gave my bf an address where we can see the dog we were suppose to get, but i think she forgot i asked her for that info long time ago and she gave me a totally different address. but i did notice that the addresses she gave us were all in the same community!! paypal has denied my claim but i have reported it to my bank.. bad news is, i dont think i'd get that too from them since it was forwarded to my paypal account.. but i'm still working on it.. give me the address so we can all call the police dept and hopefully if enough people call in, they would go and investigate otherwise, if only one person calls, they wont care..
