Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I right now am going to go the AKC paper trail route and am waiting for some calls back.
milliecorrales: I am well aware of discovery rules, but this is a place that would most definetly try to frustrate discovery and numerous privileges could apply to the documents accompanying the purchase of their puppies. I have no doubt that they would hold us up in motion practice trying to assert something ridiculous llike a trade secret or what not.
ssguzzy: actually Bruce & I have picketed the store along with numerous animal rights groups, other people who have had problems with them, and just dog lovers. I think in total we have prevented maybe 20 people from buying dogs there, but still I estimate they sell about 35-50 dogd per week (no joke) from $500-2500 each.
We will get them it just may take longer than I hoped!!! |
