This woman sounds like she's scamming people and ya'll need to do everything you can to get her shut down - There was a big scandle just like this by a 'breeder' called Tiny Darlings - She would offer puppies - take the money and never ship. Anytime you here one excuse after another you can bet your money is in trouble - not to mention your heart cause chances are you'll never see a puppy.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN SENDING MONEY TO THESE PEOPLE !!
You have to check them out totally - they're making so much money from these scams and I think operate on the assumption people will get frustrated and give up
Report her to the BBB - the Police - anyone you can think of - they need to be stopped
Candybaby - you were so lucky you got your money back !
