2Ditto | 06-07-2011 07:10 PM | Thanks to all!! :rolleyes: I really opened a can of worms!! I bought a dog from this woman, whom I trusted and was duped into meeting her in a parking lot. I know, very stupid - but you'd be surprised how many people are that gullible. I bought a cute little yorkie female from Samyra that turned out to be full of round worms, coccidia, giardia and parvo. Needless to say, it infected my other dogs who also died. It was a very, very painful lesson for me, and I have recently discovered more information on this woman on www.ripoffreport.com and http://edmonton.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20081222/edm_HOLD_puppybroker_081223/20081223/?hub=EdmontonHome
She had ads for puppies on Kijiji.ca in the Ardrossan area running earlier this week. I would never recommend anyone to her, and hope that the people who bought puppies from her this time got lucky. Obviously, from the reports above, Samyra breeds dogs - sounds like it is a puppy mill, although I haven't personally been there - and also finds breeders to assist her in 'brokering' dogs. These are not illegal activities, but it is against the law to own animals and not take care of them!! She violeated the Animal Protection Act when she sold me a dog that was so obviously ill and in dire need of veterinary care. Unfortunately, as hard as we tried to save the little sweetheart, she passed away regardless. She, as well as my other dogs passed away under veterinary care, while receiving medications intravenously. :( The diseases infected everything, and we mourned for a very, very long time. I am so shocked and angry to find out that this woman has been doing this to dogs and people for YEARS!!
I believe it is also very wrong of her to post people's private information on the internet, as she has done. No scruples, no respect for laws, nasty, nasty, nasty. I REALLY hope you will all look at the links above and warn people not to be duped into "meeting" someone to purchase a puppy.
Thanks to all for reading, and enjoy your little yorkie angels!!
