Its so scary buying a puppy without seeing everything. But sometimes they are in other states. My nina is fine and healthy, but I will be very nervous doing the shipping thing for my second one. Is it wrong to get one shipped if you have done your research??

Thanks for the update. Is there a possibility of reairing the segment to the entire state of Texas....it would be wonderful if it could be aired Nation wide.

Excellent story!!! I sent response, but refuse to put my email address or last name on it.

Thanks for all you have done to uncover this whole mess. Now we have a few more places like that for you to uncover!! LOL

Great doings here, hope he is put out of business for good!

The story on Inside Edition made me cry for the family in San Francisco. How can anyone think it's ok to breed unhealthy dogs and sell them knowing the animal is not well?

A young child should not be subject to that type of hard reality lesson! It's supposed to be the happiest time of their young lives with good memories!

This man and many other breeders like him - regardless of breed or animal is just plain sick.

I applaud you all at Fox News. Expose them! Thank you for airing the story. I look forward to the local report on the 20th!

I so agree and that family went thru TWO sick dogs.....this whole story is a big EYE OPENER for anyone that buys online. There are great breeders out there.... but the NOT great are making a bundle on internet sales and it's a 'buyer beware' market......

The ones who really suffer are the sick little puppies....Anything that helps put an end to that can only be a GOOD THING so HATS OFF TO FOX NEWS w/David & Randy

i just hope that other kennels who sell sick puppies see this and stop what they are doing.
thanks so much for doing this for us and all the people out there who have purchase a sick puppy

I will be sure to check it out online.

After we got our boy, I tried everything to get the "breeder" (and I use the term loosely) shut down. Unfortunately, at least in Illinois, it's hard to shut someone down who has a license. At the time, I was a member of the media and I had backing of several animal org officers. It was all to no avail.

I can only hope that all these years later maybe they are gone.

We didn't buy Ozzie -- we ransomed him. And I'm so glad we did. He is one of the sweetest little guys ever.

That experience was a complete opposite to the first Yorkie we had. He came from a great breeder who carefully screened buyers and even went and got back some of her dogs when she found out about abuse! Unfortunately, she died before we were looking for another puppy.
