Yep, that's her! Someone else was there when I was picking out my pup and they actually paid 2,000 for one of her pups without AKC paperwork!:eek:

When did you get your dog?

I am sooooooooooooooo sorry!!
 

OMG I am sooooooooooooooooooooo sorry. This makes me want to cry. The name on mine is Kelli Wilkins and the address is whited out but I can still read it. I called AKC and they verified Kelli Wilkins as the breeder by the litter number. I wonder if it is the same Kelli, just changed the last name for papers. The Sire and Dam are listed as Bryan's little DJ and Bryan's Sarah Jane. I puchased Mindy (now Sophie) under the puppy section. She is a big girl almost 4 lbs, but she is a sweet love. She is healthy except for Giarida and Coccidia common in puppies. Theresa actually told me that she thought she had Giardia so I brought a fecal sample to my vet when Sophie had her first vet appointment. I would check your pups BM's and take a sample to your vet. Sophie is one two different kinds of meds. She is fine and healthy otherwise. I did get to talk to Theresa after Sophie's vet appointment and she mentioned that she had already been on one of the meds for coccidia for a week already and she should have been fine. My vet said to continue meds and Theresa did not mention that fact to me when I picked her up on Friday. I for some reason trusted her. I should have checked my paperwork. I of course called her and left her a very nasty message and I am sure she will not call me back. I am trying to find a way to have her removed from Breeders dot net listing, but it seems that unless the person has a Kennel violation there is nothing they will do. I am contacting the Northern CA Yorkies association to file a complaint. There is not alot we can do , but the little we can do will help to get rid of Puppy Mills. Which puppy did you purchase? It might be my Sophie's sister Mandy?

I picked up my pup on this last Friday. I was there the Sunday before that to look at her.

§ 122200. Pedigree registry; representations; documentation; remedies

(a) A pet dealer shall not state, promise, or represent to the purchaser, directly or indirectly, that a dog is registered or capable of being registered with an animal pedigree registry organization, unless the pet dealer provides the purchaser with the documents necessary for that registration within 120 days following the date of sale of the dog.

(b) In the event that a pet dealer fails to provide the documents necessary for registration within 120 days following the date of sale, in violation of subdivision (a), the purchaser shall, upon written notice to the pet dealer, be entitled to retain the animal and receive a partial refund of 75 percent of the purchase price, plus sales tax, or return the dog along with all documentation previously provided the purchaser for a full refund, including sales tax.

You can sue her under this statute since she did falsifiy her pedigree papers, and recoup some of your costs.

Just to update everyone, I spoke with the original breeder on the phone who was very nice and sent me pics of Sophies parents (not cute, but I still love my girl) but they are a USDA approved canine breeding facility in Missouri. My pup originally sold for 800, I paid 1500. Theresa told the breeder that she was buying 3 pups for a friend Ha. I was also able to locate the breeder for another person who was fooled by her. That is why I can't stress enough to people to check your AKC paperwork before you leave the breeders house. This lady Theresa is simply a broker posing as a breeder. She buys puppies from all over and sells them at a huge profit for her. Sad. I wonder what she would have said if I looked at my papers at her house? Hmmmmm not too smart!

You are in luck? Are you aware of the disclosure law? She owes you 300% of the purchase price based on California law. Send me a PM and I will send you the law.

cheetobandita34 sweetie - your broker is buying puppy mill dogs :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: - I wouldn't believe a word she says - anyone that can do that is just plain greedy and coldhearted.

She is one of the reasons Mills thrive and I wish there was more you could do to shut her down. I would go after your money AND THE FACT that you were scammed. There are laws about disclosure....

I know it's a 'buyer beware' market - but it sounds like these freakin brokers are cleaning up....don't let this slide and keep talking about it so the next person won't get taken.

i almost used babydoll yorkies
 

im so sorry and thank you for the warning i almost used them as a breeder i
asked my friend to go with mr to la and she said why not find one here in her town cause im in north carolina and i was going to fly her out to la to help me but then i changed my mind about baby doll i just could not get this feeling i had telling me no so as of know im still looking i was thinking of using tanyastinytots i hear thats a nice place she was even onthe dog whisper that was funny

I am glad I could help! Who knows, she may very well somewhere have puppies that are AKC that were whelped from a dog that she owns. She was completely dishonest with me. She got someone else by telling them she got their dog from a "friend" (famous broker wording) That person could technically be a friend but the dog came all the way from the south. She also whited out the breeders address on the AKC paperwork which according to the AKC is a no, no. She also put our information in the transfer section of the paperwork right under where the original breeder sold the dog to her, which is completely untrue. I know I did not get my dog in August, but the end of September. The paperwork however reads as I bought the dog directly from the original breeder in August. Sad. If I ever get another Yorkie, I will take my sweet time finding someone can trust.

?????

I purchased my puppy from this breeder and she was really nice and honest. My pup was very healthy and I got all my paperwork, as promised. I am very happy with my purchase so I understand why anyone would say all these lies about her? If your puppy wasn't healthy, then you should have returned it. Doesn't she offer a guarantee? You should have brought the puppy back, not spread rumors about a legitimate breeder just cause you weren't happy with it...

Well, of course the health of the pup is important, anti-biotics normally work, but is the dishonesty that I experienced when purchasing this puppy. There are alot of dishonest people out there.

She is actually quite fortunate that so far she is not being sued for fraud. I have been told I have a definite case.

Asian Women & MyYorkieLuv,

I called the AKC and explained to them how my Dog Registration Application was altered. The breeders address was whited out and under the New Owner's Information the original name and address were also whited out and my name and address put it. They will not accept my Dog Registration Application. I bought a dog that was advertised as AKC Registered and I can not register her. Legitimate breeders do not do this.
