Did anyone else get an email from Jeff Dane - Page 5 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Alliec1 · 10-24-2006, 10:48 AM

What really gets me is that in his website source code, in the metatags (the things that make your website come up on search engines)..he's got 6883 terms listed!! Most websites have <100, IF that. This right away is telling you that his #1 prerogative is make as much $$ as fast as he can.

I think you're right it's probably just those of us with websites.

I'm sure there is someone out there that loves him - he needs to be grateful for that and leave everyone alone. From what I can see he's still pumping out puppies like crazy though some are smart enough to walk away.

I feel bad for the dogs. If he sold people healthy puppies - he wouldn't have the problems he has.

LMAO

Villette. Have you sent him your financial statement? You can't get blood out of a turnip.

He can sue me and take everything I have. A whole lot of nuttin.

Can we get a restraining order against him for stalking?

vainchick5 · 10-24-2006, 11:11 AM

Considering buying a pup from

Yorkiepup.com (Jeff Dane)?

Consider the facts below.

1 - My first-hand experience.

Jeff is a puppy mill breeder who

presents himself online as a

compassionate and responsible

person, but once he has your

money, you're pretty much an

annoyance to him.
I bought a pup from him. It

died in 2 weeks from a

vet-confirmed birth defect. Jeff

was rude, uncaring, and blew up

when we asked for compensation for

the 700.00 in vet bills. Sound

like a compassionate person to

you?

2 - Do a google search on him.

See the SPAM that he posts

advertising his business. Also

take note that "other people"

often post on his behalf, but

textually sound a lot like Jeff

himself. Also note that Jeff

sells farm equipment. If somebody

starts speaking out against him on

a bulletin board, suddenly the

thread is spammed with a bunch of

farm-equipment information, and

the thread is locked. Also look

at the source code of his website,

might be of interest. His writing

presents him as more of a psycho

than a compassionate breeder.

3 - Jeff was previously in the

monster-truck biz, until he quit

because it wasn't lucrative enough

(all info taken from online

research, i.e. GOOGLE). So he got

into a more lucrative business -

puppy mills. In his words, "MONEY

MOTIVATES!!"

4 - After one day of posting these

messages, I have been contacted by

several other people who have had

similar experiences in buying his

puppies.

BE SMART. DON'T GIVE YOUR MONEY

TO A CON-MAN.

feel free to email me =)

We bought a dog a year ago from Jeff. My daughters yorkie pup died last year from another breeder. We thought we found a good breeder in Jeff. Paid a $1000 for Bart (notice all his pups have a rotation of names) He knew how important it was NOT to get a sick puppy. He did seem to rush us at his house. Not two hours after leaving on the trip home we heard a strange cough. We called him immediately. "He didn't have a cough at in my care." Told me to give him some baby cough med. Monday took him to the vet sure enough he had kennel cough. Long story short. This took 3 months to clear up and $1500 in vet bills. He almost died. Between the vet and I we had to give him nebulizer treatments w/meds 3 times a day. Anytime I called Jeff he was rude, said the vets were in it for money. My vet felt sorry for us and stopped charging. He's a great puppy now. But when we want to add another yorkie - we won't go back to Jeff.

For everyone clueless on teacups, Jeff Dane explains that there really is a teacup yorkie!

http://www.yorkiepup.com/teacupword.html

Don't be fooled by those breeders who tell you otherwise!

Oh and despite what the AKC site claims, standard is anything over 6lbs!

I will be getting all the contact information on the posters that have slandered me and It will be turned over to the law firm we have on retainer. Please make it clear to all the others on that site, I have the money and legal team to stop these posters once I have their contact information,,,, and I am in the process of hunting that information down today.

JDL, Luvmybabies, Chestersmom, JiggityJig, vainchick5 and red98vett are at the top of that list right now. We will also be seeking monetary damages from these posters and are requesting Yorkie Talk seal the web posts these people have written

He did send some pictures of his kennels and himself and it does look pretty clean and he does have teeth

, but why the cages?? Thats the sad part...

his teeth could be fake.. My MIL has some and I didnt even know, till a yr after I was married to my Hubby.. she is a smoker, so even her rake teeth where a yellow color.... They looked realy to me...nothing wrong with people who have them.. I know when i get really old and all my teeth fall out, I will get them as well

JeanieK · 10-24-2006, 11:22 AM

With all of these experiences, I wonder why there aren't more complaints to the BBB.

Miss_Sara · 10-24-2006, 11:25 AM

What a terrible person
I didn't know about the stuff on him here
but I had definitly seen his website and thought it looked RIDICULOUS
and knew I would never get a dog from him.

btw, are all his dogs supposed to be purebred?
some of them look like something happened and the dogs got mixed up
and he lied about it on the registration maybe
idk if that happened
just seems likely

(waiting for my nasty email, Jeff)

it's very immature of him to handle his buisness this way
I mean even though he's in it for the money
he should be more proffessional.

busted by the AKC eh?

Anyone remember that breeders site from a loooong time ago that actually mentioned this website....something like "ask those YT broads" or something...

JiggityJig · 10-24-2006, 11:37 AM

Must be a slow dog-selling day if he has time to get so flustered about what only ONE (according to him!

) little site on the wide, wide web is saying about him.

One thing is obvious girls....you've got him on the run. He forgot the first rule of bluffing: "Never let them see you're afraid".

If he has time to be on here sending out threatening emails, then maybe his business is taking a hit. Which would mean that word is getting out.
