I purchased her from a "broker" in the Miami area that goes by the name of wizard of claws/puppies by the net. They insist that the purchase their puppies from select local breeders and place the dogs in homes thruout South Florida, USA and international homes. I paid $$$ for her and then took her to my vet who informed me of what bad reputation they have. After doing a little research on them this is what I found: www.stopwizardofclaws.com . And later when reviewing Ninna's AKC papers my heart sank to the floor when I noticed the name of the "select breeder" was the Halpains in Oklahoma - (9/27/2000) Animal Inventory - Adult breeding dogs - 93, Puppies 25.. Need in say more... So while she appears healthy for now, everytime I look at her I cannot see further than those gross images in my mind and how her life is at risk of some defect that may come up later in life. As you can see there have been many attempts to stop these people but as of today nothing...
If there is anything I can help out please please count me in. I would love to join with your efforts to make a difference, no matter how small... |
oh girl - Your vet knew what he was talking about didn't he ??? THE WOC needs to be permantly banned from even being around animals ...they just see them as a way to support themselves no matter what the cost to dogs lives....it IS sick isn't it that this country even lets this continue ???
I'm so glad you have a happy healthy girl..I can imagine what went thru your mind when you found out...which is why THESE BOARDS Are so good to get out information like this - no matter if it's our opinions or we know someone who has dealt with these kinds of people - the best buyer is an informed buyer and if no one talked about this - then it would just continue...business as usual.
And you CAN do something - you can email letters - I've done many myself....You just make a master letter - then copy and paste it to anyone you think may read it - even if they dont - the more that get out the better - it only takes ONE PERSON in power to get mad enough to get the ball rolling for stricter regulations for mass breeders
