What is SO reputable? It is a typical example when bad breeder try to scam naive customers.

A few things why she is NOT reputable after looking her website:

- SHIPPING. reputable breeders don't ship puppies on regular basic. period. She has a regulated system seems like....
- she lie about standard, tea-cup, whatever (Standard ranges from 7 to 9 - bulls**t)
- her guarantee is not clear....
The breeder is not responsible for any vet bills or any other bill regarding this pup nor is seller responsible for damages, physical or emotional to the buyer's self or possessions and likewise to other individuals.

red flag # 1

- I guess she breeds maltese too, or her partners....


Actually, she did a good job for NAIVE customers. Her web has a lot of good informations, but everything is basic information. Not much about HER responsibilities....Too much words how good she is with not saying important details... IMXO.

I so agree. Purchasing over the internet is a risky business unless you know the breeder's good reputation. If I see a first page come up with all about puppy sales I count them out without even looking further. If a breeder cannot give you info on their history as a breeder and their background first page that is a really big red flag for me. I would look for a website that does not even mention pups other than we have a litter once in awhile and shows pics for her/his sires and dams and shows some of their ethics in breeding. I too am so sorry for your loss it has to be heart breaking.
