I have tried to get more information from these people to no avail. All of Terry's customers who I have spoken to personally have nothing but good things to say. Every search I've done has come back fine and I have done hours upon hours of searching since finding these few complaints.
I will say this, as far as staying in contact, I have had ZERO issues. Anytime I call or email, it is replied to in a timely fashion. She initiates contact with me on her own at least twice a week for updates, pictures, and videos. She is also fairly local to me and I am welcomed anytime to visit her home and my pup. I'm unsure what her recent internet issues were, but I've never had a problem speaking with her.
This whole thing is making my head spin. I don't want to support a "bad breeder", but I have had no one come forward with any real information of their claims. With me, Terry has been fantastic. I guess we shall see what happens once Sheldon comes home. |
I think w/ any breeder,
ANY, there are always going to be people who will interpret their experience with them as bad, and will feel the need to spread that information. Meanwhile, the "bad" interaction may have nothing whatsoever to do with being the breeder's fault -- we've seen it here before where someone just nails a breeder to a cross --only come to find out the breeder was not at fault in the least. Those are really regrettable situations bc that bad review stays on the net forever, even if inaccurate.
That said, we do hear of plenty of bad experiences that indeed truly are the fault of the breeder...but it's usually quite obvious in those cases.
It sounds like you're fairly weighing the info you're absorbing - and that's really all you can do, ya know? It's you who has to be happy at the end of the day.
Btw, *LOVE* the name Sheldon - way too cute! I love boy names so much.
