You know the saying "with friends like these, who needs enemies"...

Of course you would expect someone on her payroll to come defend a greeder on a very old thread.

THOUSANDS of puppies and she's NOT a puppy mill? Yeah, right.

Pop quiz! What's the name of the dog she sold to me?????????

And plane rides only exacerbate what's already wrong. It doesn't cause parvo, ghiardia, coccidia and other parasites and viruses. This have incubation periods and are in the dog before the 2-3 hour plane ride. Besides,What do someone's looks have to do with your employer selling sick dogs?? And there's no way everyone here is lying..... You're the only person defending her. How do you sleep at night, knowing you work for a greedy, money grubbing individual who takes advantage of people, and worse yet, takes advantage of poor defenseless animals?
And who cares if the new dog pissed in the house? My pups have accidents. It's normal.

And it's YOU'RE. A contraction for you are. Your means something belonging to you. Learn to spell.

SoO i didnt think anything of it.. I got the next 2 in and kept em for 2 days they were fine, very very energetic.sold them and got the 4 in at once (2 chihuhuas for my sister who was selling them and 2 more yorkies!) when the yorkies got here one was very light and was shaking wouldnt come out and was very scared..he wouldnt drink anything..the other was complelty healthy Very energetic.. i told norma about the thin one she said he was just fine that he didnt know who i was he'd be fine.. during the night the puppy had Severe diahrea everywhere.. i woke up and he barfed.. called norma she said peptobizmal..gave it seemed to work a tad bit, he wouldnt eat or drink though.. told her that she said boil chicken (did that he ate a tiny bit) wouldnt drink though so i was syringing him with pedialight.. night goes and he keeps barfing and having SEVERE nasty smelling black diahrea.. she said its fine peptobizmal him.. next day comes HES EXTREMLY SICK!! wont walk, wont eat wont drink keeps shaking.. she calls her vet and he says its probally Giardia that she'll send me meds.. she told me stick him downstairs so i did.. i went downstairs and he just looked like he was dying, the meds didnt come so i said screw it im taking him to the vet and i dont care how much it cost (i dont have much money as it is, im 20 and have a 2 1/2 year old and 1 1/2 year old..) but i didnt care i was taking him.. i took him in and they were like "OMG he needs to be seen RIGHT AWAY!!" they took him estimated 700, they call me the next day and tells me he has PARVO!! i was histerically crying, i called norma and told her, she said its bullsh*T that he would have been dead already.. at that time i already knew it was all parvo *i didnt wanna belive it because she was VERY Convincing.* so he ran me up to 1000, and i had to sign him over to the vet because i couldnt afford it anymore, he was pouring blood barfing and diahrea still.. (the usda was involved after the older couple and the girl called about there dogs.. as well as the Framingham police department.. OMG i am screwed lol) so yeah 4 days goes by and my mom tells me the guy my sister sold the chihuhuas to the 9 week old got parvo and died!! =( its just a MESS.. norma said its all b*s and that they'd all be sick.. i keep texting her and she wont write back.. she took all her puppies off nextday pets and just WONT respond.. I end up having my puppy boots and the other puppy on quarenteen for god knows how long.. BOTH of them are fine by the way.. 2 vets said that they vacanation papers she sends are basically fake and to just throw them out, she told me she worms them and gives them there vacanations mind u she only has them for a few days because she gets the puppies that the pet stores dont want.. So i ended up with a 1000 vet bill, Vet bills for my puppy and the other puppy.. all in all its cost me a good 1500. which norma is not helping with.. oh and 2 people who want there money back which i dont have.. she deffintly screwed me good time.. i truthfully cannot believe someone could be like this.. i really really trusted her (exp with her having a A on the better business buero! *SP* anywho the little puppy that i paid 1000 for ended up living..checked in on him today.. and no one else siad there dogs have parvo.. Please please please NO ONE BUY FROM HER if u ever see her online again.. Trust what people say .. oH and my boots she said would only be 5-7 lbs at the most is now 9 and hes only 7 months..and the puppy i have thats 10 weeks is 4lbs!!!!!!
Please be aware this member is a complete liar. Did this breeder sell her parvo sick puppies or did they get it from the revolving door of animals she takes off craigslist and resells, who knows? Here's what she's left out- 2 yorkie pups she SOLD died of paro shortly ater she sold them...she herself did not deal with parvo puppies, she sold them to some poor lady. The MA Dept. of Agriculture was notified when she refused to refund this person's $, upon investigation she was taken to court by the state and ordered to CEASE and DESIST selling animals she did not breed herself. Early fall 2009 she was busted AGAIN by the state when a group of people she scammed found eachother and reported her to the state, who investigated and were able to piece together both people she had taken free/cheap animals from and then the people she SOLD these same animals to for profit. Not sure what happened to her after that...but her sob story here about 'poor me, my puppies died of parvo' is complete BUNK. i do not know if the breeder she's complaining about is where the poor pups got the parvo from, but i'm doubting it.....state investigation has found many of the animals she has been reselling have been underfed, flea infested, paraiste filled and sometimes seriuosly ill. She SOLD 2 yorkie pups with parvo and ignored the state's court order she stop reselling animals, only to be re-investigated the next year again. BEWARE OF THIS BROKER!!!!!


DO NOT SELL TO HER OR BUY FROM HER! Skeptical? Contact the Dept of Agriculture in Massaschusetts and inquire about her record with them!

Unlove yorkie

i got a puppy from granny puppies 12-8-2008. she was healthy for the most part. she wasnt sick when i got her but when i took her for a vet check we found out that she had a deformed rib. it would hurt her but it sticks out really bad. i tired to contact them to let them know her health status. there number was not working and the never responded to there email. the website we got it from was not working a few months later. i have read all the sad stories on about them i am glad i did. i was going to get another yorkie from them i am glad i saw this before i did. i wont want to bring a sick puppy home to my other 3 adult dogs.

This is actually close to me. Ran under Lone Pine Pets also. The website has been taken down. I am not sure if it was raided because nothing pulled up. Lots of bad reviews did show up.

Well this makes me sick. I bought a female Keeshond, Bella, from Norma and Ken. Bella was flown from AR to Chicago and then to Philadelphia on 8/31/08. I love this busy little girl. But now it turns out she may have a brain tumor and/or aggression epilepsy. Seeing the story of this woman and the auction of hundreds of dogs, the multiple kennel names etc really makes me ill. This info did not come up when I bought Bella- I looked, I'm an investigator by trade. This is despicable and to think I may have to put my dog down because of what she was born into. ( and yes I know Kees get epilepsy, all mine have had it to differing degrees but never the aggression component). So is this genetic or environment , we may never know, but I certainly have a guess.

And the photos I got of Bella's parents had no names...she doesn't know their names. Too many =puppy mill.

I wish all of you the best with your dogs .
