Bad Business Breeder! Shometoypuppies.com!! :mad: Hello all I wanted to let people who are interested in Yorkies to stay clar of this breeder in Missouri. They breed Yorkies and designer puppies. The advertise on nextdaypets.com and they have a website for their puppies shometoypuppies.com. I bought a puppy from them last month and she came sick. I had her for one day and had to take her to the vet. She had pneumonia and dual ear infections. SHe is very small and this is alot for her to deal with. She had to be hospitolized for one night so far, and be feed through a syringe. She is holding on but I am scared for her. Her breeder, KRISTY and CARL KING refused to take any responsibility for her illness and would not even refund the purchase price since she doubled that in her first two days with me at home. This is a bad business practice as she obviously did not get sick with me at my home in less than 12 hours!!! They have lots of puppies for sale on line and they do notstand behind their work. SHe basically told me that when she gave her to me she was fine!!!! Don't do business with these people as they have bad practices and obviously do not treat the puppies well if they get pneumonia!!!! Here is their contact information 417-234-5025 shometoypuppies@yahoo.com shometoypuppies.com |
So sorry about your bad experience. Hope your baby gets better. Paula:) Halle:aimeeyork Brutis:aimeeyork Oh and welcome to YT! |
Your breeder is a USDA commerical breeder and likely a puppymill. http://www.prisonersofgreed.org/lista.pdf I am sorry your puppy is sick and wish her a speedy recovery. |
puppy mill Hi I was searching the internet today and saw your article about Kristy and Karl King I bought two Cockerpoos from them about a year ago both of the puppies had health issues the first one had paracites and the second one had three types of worms these dogs where never socialized either they are afraid of everything including people. I complained to next day pets to have them removed from their website but they did nothing as long as they get paid they don,t care I would love to shut these two down I know now they are just another puppy mill Ken |
Agreed Hi Ken, I am sorry to hear about your pups, but I know exactly how you feel. I looked into it because I was tryign to sue them, however there is no "lemon" type law for breeders in the state of Misourri! Most states have a 7 day grace period law for health issues, but not where they are. I have contacted nextdaypets as well as that is where I found my Madison and they did little or nothing. It is frustrating because I didn't know that they were running a puppy mill until this happened to me either. I am just grateful that I got Madison and I nursed her to health. If it were not for me I am sure that her fate would have been certain in the conditions she was living and with her ilness. I wish that there were more we could do. Thanks for your post. Best of luck to you and your pups. Jessie |
y would u buy a dog of any type on the internet ? there are alot of reputable breeders in both Florida and Virginia ! |

In many ways I agree with you because there are alot of uncaring people out there. But, on the same hand I would like to say that not everyone who has their puppies on the internet are bad breeders or out to just take someones money. This isn't the first time I've heard bad things about the Kings and the condition of their puppies and I dread to think of what kind of enviroment the poor adults live in. I have even writen then before and ask'd them how the can peacefully sleep at night knowing that they purposely rip people off and knowing that their poor dogs suffer while they live in comfort. That being said I have sold several of my puppies via the internet and I can honestly say that I have never had a bad word said about me or my Yorkies. As well I can also say that I am one of the first people to get in a millers face and make sure they know what I think of them. All of this being said I just wanted to clarify that not all internet people who deal in Yorkies or any other type of sales are bad. Just like everything else we have to do our home work before we buy. I am very sorry for what your little pup is going thru and I pray that she makes a full and speedy recovery. |

I bought a pure bred yorkie and they sent me a mutt.. yes.. a mutt.. looked nothing like the picture.. this dog looked like a terrier mixed with poodle mixed with street dog!!! poor thing had bald spots.. VERY VERY SAD !!! i immediately called kristy and she did nothing.. she said "no refund.. i'm right, you're wrong, and that is that...!!" please DO NOT... DO NOT .. DO NOT.. do business with these people.. they have a website: yorkies ... REPORT THEM TO THE Better business bureau.. REPORT THEM TO nextdaypets.com (that is where they advertise)... Kristy King is a heartless biotch that is running a puppy mill and could give a rats ass about the dogs she sells...!! you have been warned people!!! |

Welcome to YT! If you need to find an excellent breeder this is a great place to start. Also tons of information about yorkies & their care - even a mix |
I am so sorry for what your baby is going through. I hope she will recover soon. |
I clicked on the link to the website, it has been diabled, but here are the listings on nextdaypets.com Puppies for Sale, Dogs for Sale The phone number listed is 417-935-5111 If you do a search for the phone number on Google, all kinds of listings come up. |
It seems like the people complaining here found the bad breeder on the "next day..." thing, maybe i better stay off from this place and keep looking. |
My cockapoo I hate to hear all of the bad stories about this breeder. I got a cockapoo from them in Jan 09 and I was one of the lucky ones. She didnt have any health problem and we love her to death, although, we realized she was not a true cockapoo when we got her. We are wanting another one for a compainon for Tybee but we wont go back to the same breeded. Does any one know if they are still selling puppies? If so have you found them listed anywhere? |
I'm sorry you had a bad experience! And I really hope your puppy gets better soon! |
Hello, I had the same issues with this breeder. I got my Kalix on 3-30-09 and he was suppose to be black and dark brown and remain those colors and not get over 5lbs. The day I got him from the airport he was so sick, I had him to the vet with in 10 hrs as we had to wait til morning. He was dehydrated had worms and so sick. Not only that he had a condition with his teeth that his K-9 were stabbing into his lower jaw. What a mess and we sent a lot of money to get all these concern evaluated. He is great now due to my care and quickness. He is 12.4lbs and is silver and tan. I love my baby. I wrote and called the vet who cleared him for transport on the plane and told him everything, I wrote in to the department of agriculture sending them all the papers from vet letting them know this was a birth defect and NO ONE did anything. I received NO money back on all the vet costs. I learned to never again buy a dog from a state that doesn't protect the purchaser. I did put my complaint into the department of agriculture and you can to, to make other aware. Once his baby teeth came out he was fine. I had him to a doogy dentist and all, it was a long haul. I am so sorry for all you went through and hope your baby is doing well. I would love to talk so please message me back. |
Hoping that your baby gets better quickly! I am so very sorry for your experience! I don't understand how some can go to sleep at night... Carrie & Tucker |
