Wow, I should have read this thread over 1 month ago as I just bought my Maddie from Denise. However, (fingers crossed) she's in good health and has a wonderful dispostion and is just the sweetest puppy! I couldn't imagine not having her in our home now! She's been checked out by my vet and all is well (knock on wood). However, admittedly, buying her was bit impulsive as I wanted a puppy that day (without doing further research
) so, I guess, pretty dumb on my part
. I did get lured in by the website but I did have that voice in my head telling me this women was creepy when I chatted with her on the phone and when I met with her (however I choose to ignore it)! She definitely is a saleswomen through and through. Nevertheless, the minute Maddie jumped into my lap, I was hooked. What everyone said (on this thread) is very accurate in how she goes about the whole process. She did bring out 3 female puppies for showing and took a long time in doing so.....The first she brought out, did look a bit sickly to me as I recall. She does carry on about the puppies not being registered giving her orchestrated speach as everyone on her has talked about. For me, I guess it didn't matter but I truly understand how this is important. I did sign an Agreement that includes a 1 year warranty period (from the date of birth). She does overcharge!! Maddie was $3,000k
However, my husband and I make a good living so this for us wasn't that big of deal. We love Maddie and we're so glad she came into our lives....be it by way of reseller who makes it off like she's a breeder
. I'm saddened that this women does this, however, I do take responsibility for not doing my homework and being too impulsive. I read this thread last night and went and gave Maddie extra hugs & kisses as I truly don't know what she went through. This saddens me the most! My poor baby!!
