I am praying that this time, something can be done! This has been going on for so many miserable years ... it's high time it is noticed by an authority who actually cares and will get something done! There are so many good people who have tried in the past and yet it continues.

What a mess. The yorkies don't even look like they are purebreeds.

I say pull out the big guns and go national. Contact Fox News Channel. It would be all over from there!

I hope one day he will be closed down. Take Care for now, Tracey

I bought a expensive 12 weeks old "teacup" from Steve in March of this year. I was clueless of no such thing as a teacup but bought the hype. He wasn't suppose to be over 3 lbs. Today my 8 month old dog is about 12-13 lbs and still growing. I promise you he looks like a silky and has a terrible overbite and a 3 inch or more tail. He was so sick when I got him and had diarrhea for the first 10 days and had to be put on antibodtics. He was lifeless for the first 2 weeks. I cannot tell you the anguish and disgust that breeder has put me through with false advertisement. I love my dog and he is healthy although I too have to watch his trachea but I wanted a smaller dog. I didn't get what I WANTED AND PAID DEAR FOR MY DOG. Actually from what I read on the brothers Steve was in the business first and got his brother Jeff in it. I so want these guys out of business. I am glad my dog is now healthy and away from such abuse.

Im glad your baby is ok now.

BaxtersMommy · 09-18-2009, 06:41 PM

I have to be honest, I would love to slap the crap out of these two guys. (just sayin)

inabowbina · 09-18-2009, 07:22 PM

how awful. you can tell though that he is a puppy mill by how many dogs he has for sale on his website. That is a huge clue. And they are all in the same outfits and area of the house where they take their pictures. when looking on the internet at puppies for sale i like seeing different pictures of the puppies that are for sale in different environments in the house and yard i like seeing the parents too. he has so many puppies for sale that is the biggest clue people need to know about. a litter or two is normal but he has so many. i feel so bad for the babies. all we can do for them is educate the public not to buy from him.

Thank God YOU got him! Some people sadly would not have kept him. Bless you for loving him!
I am sorry that you got ripped off like that. So sad that people make money like that...off of the backs of God's creatures. Too lazy physically and mentally to make a decent living. Trust that karma will get them one day!

I agree.

Omg I can not believe the things I am reading about this. When me and my husband drove up to this place. This lady came out to with a puppy in her arms. We had already purchased him through the web site. He was 6months old and he cost $600. I love my little norbie he only weighs 4.7lbs. He is so sweet. I started crying when I read the post about this place clinching norbie close to my heart. I can't imagine him ever livin in a condition like that. I asked her if we could see the other dogs and she said no you've already paid for this one and Steve is not home today he is the one that runs the shop. I said ok so this is norbie and she was puzzled. I said norbie... The name you have him listed under on your website. She said oh yea. Me an my husband got in the car drove away and I told him I think that was a puppy mill but norbie was so cute and I couldn't take him back to that place if I had to.

Dukendaisy · 07-30-2013, 09:04 AM

Omg I'm in tears imagining what these innocent angels have to go through. I am praying that they have been shut down and their poor dogs given vet treatment and fostercare. These bastards should be forced to live in the same conditions as they forced on these poor dogs!!!!!!

I agree that there is a very special section in hell for these "people"!!!!!

Blessings to everyone who worked hard to get these guys shut down. What is the latest info on them? Have the animals been rescued? Are the brothers shut down?
