| Post his info here and see if anyone has heard of him. Also to give people here head's up not to get a dog from him since he is breeding to supply pet stores. |

| You can get a free report on your puppy's breeder, any complaints, USDA inspection reports, etc, here: PetShopPuppies.org You can also look your breeder up on the USDA "puppy mill" list as 99.9% of pet store puppies come from midwest mills. http://prisonersofgreed.org/ListA2006.pdf |

They always say they don't buy from puppy mills, but they do. Are you sure you looked at the right state? Don't look in your state (California?) because they are imported into the state, usually from Missouri or Oklahoma. The report will tell you everything you want to know, though. | |

| I'll give the list another look...I went to the state of arizona since in the certificate of the UCA registration it says that the sire and dam is the same breeder and they are from arizona Quote:

Did you try just Googling the breeder's name? | |
