That is truly Sad!
 

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE guys do not use this lady who is actually now responding to our posts! Definitely do your homework before you pick the breeder and before you leave the breeders house with your paperwork. My pup too is now non registerable as she whited out the address on my paperwork too! Disgusting:mad:

Well I wonder who THIS could be??? hmmmm this is a no brainer :rolleyes:

Isn't That Funny
 

Cracks me up! LOL:rolleyes:

Dishonest
 

It will take lots of paperwork, but I think you can register her. And you're right, a legitimate breeder would not white out the information.
Contact the original breeder and have her contact AKC to find out what she can do to make it right for you. She is ultimately responsible for that baby, and to you, she chose to breed.
I have been reading the posts, and from my gut feeling if it matters..
To the original breeder... anyone wanting 3 puppies from the same litter is probably brokering. I have had someone wanting 2 puppies at the same time, one for themselves, and one for a family member and I get suspicious and check them out even more carefully, but if someone wanted 3... would be no way! But I think the original breeder had no idea there was anything going on.
Now it does happen and has happened to me several times that I purchase a female for breeding myself and it is not the quality I am looking for, or is too small to breed. I do find a great pet home for them, after contacting the breeder to give them the opportunity to get the pup back, but I am upfront with all information to all concerned, that way you would have had knowledge before even seeing the pup.
Now, the seller on the other hand is a broker... or in the very least, dishonest!! Honest breeders would never white out the breeder's name on the AKC papers, and would never bring out a female to tell you that she was the mom. She could have simply told you on the phone that she had a female available that she purchased that was too small to breed, give you the breeders name, and for goodness sake, not charge you double the amount she paid!! Then you could have had contact with the original breeder and decide for yourself if that is something you still wanted to do.
It is hard out there, a lot of times we have to go with gut feeling on both sides.. breeding and buying. We have to somewhat trust what people are telling us, and check them out the best we can, breeders and new owners. I personally am very happy that your baby has you!!

Have you checked the secton on here for puppies? there is one on here that has a male for sale fo $500.

Post #1.....Interesting?????

Registration
 

I did contact the original breeder. I called AKC and thru the registration number they were able to give me the name and address of the breeder. Then Cheetobandita34 helped me located her on the internet. I e-mailed her and explained how the registration papers were altered and how I thought Babydoll Yorkies was a puppy broker. She e-mailed me back defending Threasa of BabyDoll Yorkies calling her a very honest person. Then immediately Threasa e-mailed me accusing me of defaming her "good name". She said the only reason she whited out the breeders name was to protect the breeder????? So I doubt the breeder will help me in this case. She's the one that contacted Threasa of Babydoll Yorkies and told her what I had said.

.....

ahh...messed up the last post - rookie move!

I looked into getting a puppy from Theresa, we emailed a few times and spoke on the phone, but one of her contract stipulations (when I was looking) was that if the pup died within a year two vets (that I would pay for) would preform and autopsy and her vet would have the final say as to cause of death. I didn't get a good feeling - and she sold "teacups" which we all know do not exist according to the breed standard.

Oh Come on? We're not idiots here!! :mad: Post #1

Who invited him to the party????
 

Why does this person only get involved in controversial postings???? Oh, I get it........he feels right at home.....:)

Dina......I think he/she may think we havent figured it out....LOL

So sad that this is happening to you guys! I hope that you can get something back when all is said and done!

Thanks!
 

I wanted to thank you guys for all your support. Sophie is now almost six months old, weighs 6 lbs already (Yikes) but is healthy and a complete lovebug! If anything else. we have all learned to be extra careful when purchasing a pup! Truth is I also had a bad gut feeling when I first spoke to Theresa on the phone. Her phone manner was weird and I should have trusted my gut!:)

Hi --
We need your advice on what to do to protect others from the breeder we got our puppy from which was Simba;s Pride in Fallon Nevada. Our puppy was delivered to us at the state border listless and lethargic. We assumed it was the car trip etc. By the third day he was taken to the vet severly dehydrated from continual vomiting. The breeder told us she had two pups in the back of her car and one of them had thrown up a lot on the trip. However, she neglected to share this info when we paid for him and picked him up. Anyway our little guy almsot died the 4th day and was seizing. He had three of these episodes before Giardia and tape worm were diagnosed. The vet (vets) said he came with Giardia and that is what sent his system into shock. Finally the medication for Giardia that he took worked. The vet suspects that his mother is a carrier and said the tape worm is more common. Anyway in the beginning the breeder offered to help with expenses and or replace with a new pup if he died. We obviously had no interest in exchianging for another sick pup. Good news is our little guy survived ($2,200) later but now breeder will not help with bills. We have been legally advised that we have recourse as a clinically ill puppy voids any contract specifics to parasites but want to help others avoid the grief and suffering we endured.
Thanks for any advice you can give.

Wow
 

I am soooooooooo sorry for what you are going through. I almost got a pup from them! When I was initially looking I put up a post asking if anyone had a pup from them. There was one lady who said she did. I think her pup had a hernia and she thougt they might be a "Canine Breeding Facility" They always have pups! When I got Sophie (who unknowingly came from a puppy mill in Missouri) she had Giardia and Coccidia, which are common in pups. Although the pups should not have been sold until they were well. We went through a round of a couple of antibiotics and she ended up fine. Sophie also cannot seem to go for a car ride without throwing up. She gets car sick. Your pup however should not have been seizing. I am glad you were able to bring your pup to a vet. I am suprised your bill was that high???

You definitely have recourse. If you signed a contract you should be able to exchange your pup for a healthy one. I would report Simbas Pride to the proper authorities. (Not sure, others might know who) They should be looked into and shut down if they are selling sick pups. I think they are listed on breeders dot net. I would contact them and let them know what is going on. Breeders have to hold to a standard to stay listed with them. You also might want to contact the Nevada and Nor Cal Yorkie Breed Association and let them know. Put a couple of strong posts up here in Breeder Review and Breeder Talk. When I was going through all the drama after I purchased Sophie, I posted here and the support was overwhelming. The lady I bought her from is not shut down, but she is not technically a breeder, she is a broker. Just getting the word out was helpful. Word somehow got to her and she came on this site posing as a member. It was quite funny.

Once again I am sorry for what you are going through, and I am glad your baby is o.k. I know that my pup is really turning out to be a beautiful little girl and I love her tons even though she came from where she came from!

Hope That Helps!:aimeeyork
