| I've never heard of them but by the sounds of it.. I don't think I would want to deal with them. I can't imagine a breeder (if it is one) going through the expense of raising them just to sell them for $99.. unlike it is what Tammy said, no shots or anything..

| All of our puppies come with a Lifetime Guarantee and are protected for life against theft, loss, or natural disaster with Microchip Identification. We do not allow the puppies to leave us until they are at least 8 weeks old. All our puppies are raised in a loving family environment. Yea.... okay.

| It says from $99 or starting at. I saw one yorkie that was in the $300 range. If you google it it comes up with bull dogs and then some.

| If you click on the puppies it tells more including price. There is one for $224 and free shipping????? Now how can they do that? Another place says shipping is $250, but most of the yorkies I clicked on said free shipping and when you figure that has to cost them at least a couple of hundred, how could they make even enough money to break even on vet care and food? Very strange......

| i cant find any complaints or reviews on them i couldnt locate them on the BBB the puppies are really cute but i have no clue how they are doing this at these prices i was concerned to see that it could take 6 months to get the registration papers. requardless they arent coming from breeders, this is a pet shop so they are probably getting them from puppy mills, and on the guarantee all i saw them stating was if the puppy was unfit, nothing about genetic defects. you also HAVE to feed them the food and vitamins they choose and you HAVE to have proof of feeding it to get a replacement pup, if something happens. |

1. In the event of the death of the pet within 1 year from its birth due to genetics, the Seller shall replace the pet with another of equivalent value at no cost to you. 2.The buyer has 14 days after purchase to return the puppy for full refund if found unfit for sell by a licensed veterinary. 3. In the event of the death of the pet, due to genetics, after the 1 year of birth, the Seller shall issue a kennel credit in the amount of thirty five percent (35%) of the original cost towards the purchase of a replacement pet of equivalent value. " They even have a percentage allowed for pets that die due to accidents and those who are lost or stolen. But I did not care for that part about having to feed them only Wellness and the supplements they write in the papers, as well as keeping all receipts for food and supplements. Can you image the shoeboxes full of receipts you would accumulate over the life of a dog? Maybe they figure n one will really keep themall so they can void their warranty? IDK I cannot figure this site out. The prices are just amazing if they are for real.

| You probably send money and never get a puppy. That's the only way they could make money on that deal.

| There is another website like this called affordablepup.com. I was looking at them when searching for Ranger, but decided that I would like pup that I have met their parents and have seen pictures of past siblings. I never found out if they were legit, but they were getting like 20 puppies in a week and I couldn't think of any way they were doing it besides puppy mills.
