Should have known better something was a little off..."Where is her mommy?" I asked..."she is a show dog...she is being shown right now" I thought it seemed a little strange that she would already be "back to work" but I ignored my gut feeling and asked "do you have any pictures" She pulled up a couple of pictures of a gorgeous yorkie on her computer...yeah, still seemed weird...where were the home pics? STILL, my dumb self decided to buy my puppy (for 600 dollars) After all, I was in love. Signed a sheet of paper took the paper work she put in a little bag for me and went on with our new puppy on my lap in the car. Soooo, I got home and started looking over the paper work... Dames name dog gone lucky stacy...sires dog gone lucky dave from dog gone kennels in missouri! Wait a minute! I bought Shea from a farm in north west jersey! I look up these names online and no dogs are coming up or anything. So, I look up dog gone kennels missouri...what came up made me so sick to my stomach. Inspection citations and fines to this place because it is a puppy mill and was deemed unclean and unsafe! I was so nauseous. I felt so bad for my baby. I called the lady and she WOULD NOT call back. Then, I text her with the following, " How did you come to get this puppy? I just looked up online and she is from a puppy mill??!! I am so angry! I am so against puppy mills" she texts back "no. no puppy mill." thats it, thats all she says. So I questioned her against 10 times how she came to get this puppy. She doesnt answer. 5 days later she calls me and tells me shea was her friends dogs puppy and she bought the dog from there not knowing the dog was from a puppy mill. Listen, I know I was stupid for not looking into things, but I was not stupid enough to believe that. My puppy had a urinary tract infection when I got her, 2 parasites and ear mites. It took a long while to get her well! |
Yes, most likely a puppybroker

Just to make it even more sad, your baby is safe and loved with you now. What about all of the "breeding stock" back at that horrible mill!

May they all rot in he!!
I am so sorry that you also had a horrible experience when bought your little one from that broker. It is a lesson well learn and I thank you too for sharing so that others can learn.
