I purchased a puppy from there. I am out 2 grand basically - and can only get a credit for my puppy. I went there on a recommendation from a friend - she got two great puppies there. Mine had ringworm and we returned it.

I feel very taken by this place after reading the reviews. I even tried contacting my local news only to find out that the place had changed names over the years to avoid bad press. The local news had already done an expose on this place.

Just a warning. And if anyone feel like 'rescuing' a puppy from there, you are more than welcome to have my credit. I wont ever use it - my family has been through enough right now.

I am contacting a lawyer and the ASPCA to see what type of recourse I have. I truly thought I was doing the right thing be going through what I thought was a reputable place (because of my friend and her two pups). I was willing to pay a lot to ensure a healthy puppy. I was so wrong. And I am so mad at myself for supporting a place like this.

I dont know how these people live with themselves.
