Ohh that's a great idea! I bet if you call about a puppy, and then you get there to see the pup, and then ask to see the parents, they won't let you.

And the house was a wreck when I went and they had these pups out on a front porch!

I would not have a problem doing that at all

We only live 45 minutes or less from there and we go to Martinsville all the time

I also have a cell phone with a camera that someone could take pics (if possible) while the other was keeping her busy

In late September of 2006 I drove out to Martinsville, Indiana to Four Paws Kennel to purchase a Teacup Yorkie. Over the phone Lois Hancock said that the puppies had been to the vet and were current on all their shots and vaccinations. All sounded well, until I got there...

The room she keeps them in was very unsanitary and smelled. The beds and blankets that the puppies used looked like they were a million years old and had never been washed.

I was also amazed to find out that SHE is the one who administers the shots to the puppies! One puppy had a cough and she said to me that she just started giving them some antibiotic the other day, so the puppy should be fine.

All the poor puppies had beyond matted, knotted hair because of this awful tool she uses that she thinks is a proper brush/comb for the puppies!

She leaves HARD food out for the puppies to eat, but doesn't even WATCH the puppies to make sure they are eating. Let me remind you, some of these puppies do NOT have teeth yet! How are they suppose to eat HARD FOOD??!!!

Her puppies are malnourished and very sick!!!!

The next day after purchasing the Yorkie I knew something was not right with him. He was limp, very lethargic, and wasn't eating or drinking anything. Therefore, I rushed him into the vet, LESS THAN 24 HOURS after I had picked him up!

The vet came out and said if I would have been 15 min later, he would have DIED! They found him covered in FLEAS!!! He also had a PARASITE that was found in his stool. He had LOW BLOOD PRESSURE, which caused him to have a freezing cold body temp, even though I had him in blankets all night. He also had dangerously low Blood sugar levels that nearly killed him!

The next two days I spent over $1400 in vet bills alone! Not to mention the numerous amounts of antibiotics and vet visits that followed for the next 6 MONTHS!!!!!

I called her up that day and told her what had happened, and she BLAMED ME!!!!! She was incredibly rude and insisted that I DIDN'T take care of him and I caused the low blood sugar levels and almost killed him!

I told her that there is no possible way for someone who has had a puppy for 18 hours to be blamed for the condition that dog was in! His medical condition is something that stemmed way before I ever picked him up!

I told her I wanted her to pay for all of this and she said she wouldn't! She would give me a different puppy. Why would I give her back a puppy she almost killed?! Let alone, I didn't want another puppy from her.

Lois Hancock is a FRAUD and a horrible, dishonest person! She needs to be shut down considering she doesn't even know how to take care of a single puppy!!!

I am so sorry this happened to you. How is your puppy now? What is his name?

I would like to welcome you to YorkieTalk. Please consider posting an introduction as a separate thread in general discussion, so that we can all welcome you properly.

PS...we LOVE photos!

yougetthesmiles · 02-23-2008, 03:31 PM

I'm so sorry that you did not find YT before you bought your baby. I pray your baby is healthy now.

Did you take her to small claims court?

I agree, something needs to be done about this nasty person!

Welcome to YT! I hope you stay here and join us, this is such a wonderful forum with so many caring people.

I would love to see photos of your lil one.

Curlybaby · 02-23-2008, 03:33 PM

Thank you for the concern. He is actually doing great now, after I nursed him back to health. The vet had even told me a year later that he really didn't think that he was going to make it because of how sick he was.

His name is Romeo... She just really needs to be stopped. I do like the idea of Fox news, they do go in with their own hidden cameras into places/business' and expose people and places. I wish they would do that with this lady.

I will look into making that post you mentioned. I just joined YorkieTalk and Ripoffreport today because I want this lady stopped.
