Put yourself in the OP's position. You paid good $$ and are sent pictures of a pup that you fall in love with. Then after waiting and paying your hard earned $$ you get a dog that looks a bit ratty and so not like the dog you paid for and looks a lot bigger than the pup in the pictures you were sent. Then you try to contact the breeder and you get no response. Then you go that extra mile and contact the breeders vet and you get a recommendation of "that sure sounds like you had a dog switch on you"...how honestly would you feel. Personally I would have been as anxious as she was and worried.

I don't really feel that she said anything too crazy being as after speaking the vet and her initial observation the pup seemed to be a different one.

I think as long as she posted the correct information on here after squaring it away and apologizing for being frantic all should be fine.

You are very wrong! She stated facts before even contacting the breeder. SHE NEVER CONTACTED THE BREEDER FIRST! She herself states that she was being contacted by Glenda but she couldn't take the calls then. IF YOU ARE SO FRANTIC..YOU TALK TO THE BREEDER!

You do not go on a public forum, that when this breeders name is googled it will shows this thread. Yes it does raise questions for those who don't know this breeder. Some people might not even read the whole thread and at that point make a judgement about the breeder. Yes, she could loose sales and reputation ruined because of this post. The reason that everybody stands up for her is that she has never done anything like what is being claimed.

If I were Glenda, I would ask for the dog back. This lady might not be the right owner for "a dog". I have not seen a retraction of her statements, but she has kept very quiet. Why is that? Was she wrong? People like this make reputable breeders quit selling their quality dogs. In the end WE loose!
