First I want to apologize for the length of this post.. I just cannot condense it any better... thanks for understanding..
I bought a dog from this breeder, Deana Junk at
www.yorkiekiss.com. She told me she had a friend in Brazil whom she had known for years, and since she was Brazilian born this breeder was her mentor and co breeder.
Many people have mentors...she told me that once in a while, but not often, she ships in a Yorkie from her mentor who lives in Brazil. I kept in touch with her for approximately three months before I actually purchased a girl from her. Deanna sent me a paypal invoice for the amount of 2,200.00. I have a copy of the paypal request from her, I also have a copy of my receipt that I indeed paid that amount. I got my girl on July 26th. She was actually on the plane when I got a message from Deanna saying I better get to sleep as she knew I had a 4 hour drive to the airport, puppy was arriving at 7 a.m so in 10 hours she was to arrive.. I sent my hubby directly to bed as we had to leave at 3 a.m. for the drive to the airport. I still had to print all the paperwork that I would need to pick up our girl. I was shocked that she was on the plane prior to her letting me know...what would have happened if we had gone out of town to see our daughter or for whatever reason?? Thankfully, my puppy arrived safely, in a clean crate, bows in hair...what a darling she was.
With that said, she arrived without her protocol. (This is a copy that says the dog has been registered in my name, it has the name I picked for the dog, her registration number and the breeders name also.) In Brazil that paper is to go with puppy. Deanna had her breeder send her this paper so she has control whether or not you get it in the end. I had not received mine.
I had my girl about a month and Deanna came onto my msn and told me she had a boy. I was not actually looking at that moment in time, but I did say I was going away for 5 days and did she have a picture of him. She said no, but go and I will show you in 5 days, when you return.
When I got home and turned on my computer an msn message popped up with her saying she sold the boy. I questioned that, as I thought, why tell me then sell him?
She did not like being questioned. She got very upset with me. But then had the nerve to go on and on about how her breeder found him just for a perfect match with my girl, and how she had to get him from another breeder for the just the right match. Then, to add salt to the wound, she told me how adorable he was and how perfect and so on and so on. Again I questioned this. I could not understand if this dog was found, and was found to be a perfect match for my girl, and she made it sound like it was a bit of work on her mentor's part looking for me...why on earth would she sell him? I did not understand this at all.
She knew I was upset and then said to me well buy him right now!!! Ah duh, she just said he was sold, now I can buy him right now with no picture or anything about him? I told her I felt I was at an auction, higher bidder gets him.. Well that pissed her off! (her words)
She then sent me a message on my face book, oh yes she meets people and then wants to add them to her face book, telling me she is upset with me and will not look for a male for me.. I went back saying one word...OK...yet she then came back with more. She stated although she was pissed off with me, she would still send my girls papers to me...when indeed the breeder that had my address from shipping the dog could have sent them directly to me. Again having the papers sent to deanna gives her a feeling of control which she obviously needs desperately.
I left the situation be. I was not going to argue with this girl any longer.
In a few days I receive an email from someone named "Carla", asking me about my Brazilian girl, and who I got her from. She said that she saw her on my internet site. My website was not advertised on the internet (only my friends, family and Deana knew about my website) so I knew just who Carla really was. Also, she didnt notice that, although she used an alternate email address, her real name appeared on the email, in my inbox. I replied to her and told her I was not about to play these games and that I knew it was her...she came back with some back peddling excuses about wanting to keep me on my toes to see if I knew it was really her...5 minutes later, she pops up on my msn and her first message was if I wanted my papers I would have to pay her another $200.00 - as I owed her $100.00 (apparently people who sell and use paypal they pay a fee, she decided after the fact that I would pay that fee), and then she said $100.00 dollars for papers...which was to be included in the price for with the dog.
I also want to add that I paid $2,200.00 and have since discovered that her co breeder and others sell their yorkies for $750.00 for girls and $550.00 for boys.. she also claim's she does not make money, but her co breeder sends her gifts...these gifts are two yorkies at a time for her to sell. She told me she gets $3,000.00 each for them...and gets "gifts" quite often. Since joining YT, I have discovered she is what everyone calls a broker..she is in it for the money only, and from what happened to me, she needs control and brags about controlling her co breeder as in she prices the dogs that are being sold. She has the protocol and the pedigree shipped to her, rather than the new owner...another control issue.
Deanna played with my emotions, I had to block her from my facebook, had to block her from my msn, I had to change email address.. and cancel my website.
I did get my girls papers, and it took me from September to now. I have saved what she put on my facebook, I saved the msn conversation where she laughs at me, figuring I would not get my papers...she did not know me very well, for I was not going to allow a 21 year old call me nasty names, laugh at me...prey on me, and harass me.
I have my copy of her invoice requesting money. I have my copy of my paying her what she asked, I have saved the facebook comments, I have saved the bogus email...they all have a time stamp on them.
If Deanna Junk has done this to me, I know she has done it to others. And the final insult? When I received my little girl, I sent her a picture of me holding her, smiling away like any happy new parent. I have since lost this picture, and she has put it up on her website, with her watermark plastered all over it, making it looks like I am just another happy purchaser of one of her yorkies...amazing how she makes sure no one can steal her pictures from her site, but she has not problem with steeling from others..
I am writing this from my heart. I need to let it be known that I am not out for revenge, I just hope that by posting my experiences with her, that someone else will read this and not go through with her, what I did. There are so many great breeders out there that are not in it for just the money, as she so clearly is.
