We purchased the MN westie (with "Irish" roots) back in 2003. The seller is from Prior Lake, but Dave Moore is listed on the state transit paper. We still are trying to determine if the seller was aware of Dave Moore's practices. We are suspecting the worst.
Hoping to get our money back; we've had lots of vet bills with this guy.
I am sure they've sold lots of "Irish" dogs in MN. Ironically, we attempted to adopt our westie to another couple... they had purchased a "Irish" terrier from the same folks. Turned out the dog had LOTS of behavior issues its whole life. Understandably, they declined adopting our little fella. We are heartbroken.
