Unfortunately I purchased Mac from a broker before I found YT. My husband found this "broker" and she lived locally. She has any kind of dog listed on her web site (which after my incident has been changed numerous times). When I was looking for a yorkie she told me she new many breeders that she dealt with all the time and if there was something specific I was looking for she would find it. Well needless to say I feel in love with Mac. This broker (who when things starting going wrong with Mac decided she was only and advertiser because in NJ we have puppy lemon laws which hold brokers responsible) said she would pick him up and bring him to me and that she knows the breeder and they are reputable. I had Mac for 3 weeks during which time he never seemed quite right. After being rushed to the emergency vet numerous times we were finally sent to a neurologist after poor Mac good not even be touched without crying in pain. It turned out that he had Atlanto Axial Malformation. (Thank God he is just fine now). I contacted the broker becuase of the health guarantee and the NJ law. I had the right to keep the dog and be reimbured for 2x my purchase price in vet bills which were actually 5 times that. Well it is when all this started that she became an advertiser. She then gave me the breeders name who lived in MO and raises various breeds. She stated that she never dealt with this broker ever before that the dog was also advertised on auction she also informed me that she sold Mac's sister to a pet store. She told me NJ law doesn't apply in MO and I bought the dog from the broker. The broker/advertiser decided that she would refund the money she made on the transaction. She actually marked the dog up over $800.00 Yes I was a fool at the time. This person actually advertises to stop puppy mills on her site. And now sells designer dogs. whatever they are. I would advise everyone to stay away from this site also. I think we should tell are stories so we can spread the word on any places we have had problems with
