I had no idea at the time what a bad place that was and how many people were sold sick dogs. I use the word 'sick' lightly - many died.

Thanks to Yorkie Talk (who left my thread up) - many people contacted me and also another woman , & told their stories online and via private email. I personally spoke to many people who were just heartbroken and upset. Not only did they not have a dog - or spent thousands in vet bills -they were treated like s**t and never refunded for their loss or expenses.

Eventually Fox News got involved aired 3 segments about Brushy Creek Kennels and the dangers of buying pets online.

This is a so called breeder/BROKER that neglected dogs - misrepresented and sold different dogs to people who had chose one online - sold dogs with severe health issues - not to mention - he shot dogs and admitted it. He ran multiple websites all the while scamming people out of their money. If you type in Brushy Creek Kennels here you'll be reading for a week.

Don't know about Lisa and really don't care but she did work for him.

Fox News (The reporters name was David also) told me they had more calls about Brushy Creek Kennels the nights it aired than the whole ENRON fiasco if that tells you anything.

It also caught the attention of INSIDE EDITION. They jumped right in and did an undercover buy. They documented it from start to finish.

They also were shipped the WRONG DOG and the poor puppy had multiple health problems....just like what was being reported.

I took a big chance posting online about what I saw at Brushy Creek and don't regret a bit of it. I dont recall saying much about Lisa but to tell you the truth - she made ALOT of money being involved with David of Brushy Creek. You can't tell me she had no idea. If she didn't , then she must have had her head in the sand or he was just THAT good at scammig people.

I didn't mean to ramble - but that's pretty much how Yorkie Talk became involved. I commend the Admin here for allowing myself and the others that followed to tell their stories.
Wow a little YT history! Very interesting and I think I am going to read the thread to keep on learning and learning............. You rock!
