| Never mind, it looks like all of their "alternate" sites have been shut down as well.

| They were named Puppy Boutique when I bought Jewel, and they had several names when you look them up under the BBB. My husband would kill me too... LOL I have Teddy(Dad), JewJew(Mom), Brandi(Daughter) and Beau(Son). She had 6 pups but I could only talk my husband into keeping two. The rest are with good friends or family where I can keep an eye on them. |

| Yep, Puppy Boutique is the name of the kennel in Pembroke Pines where they keep the dogs. Most of their business was through online sales. They had www.wizardofclaws.com, www.puppiesforsalebynet.com and their newest one that I found was This web site is no longer avail. All had the same phone # and website design.

| Lets hope and pray they stay closed down and that the rest get caught so no other babies will have to go through that cruelty. BTW your babies are beautiful! |

| So glad to hear they were shut down. I have known about Wizard of Claws for years. For a novice, their website looked wonderful but a total lie. They keep turning up under different names but maybe this time....here's hoping. We all were uneducated at one point, my Bella I got in Florida when we were down visiting and I should have known better. She was supposed to be my little girl, they told me 3.5 lbs, she is 8.5 and I know she is mixed with maltese. |

| Rescue yorkies in Seffner I checked on them today and they are all in foster care. My understand is that the woman they took them from is not going to sign them all over. She will need to go to court and argue it with the judge. I don't believe a hearing has been scheduled yet. |

Ralphie was supposed to be small as well and he is a little over 7 pounds (which is still small). I am sooo happy that he is bigger than planned, the crazy stinker would have never survived all the jumps, falls, leaps, etc. that he puts himself through .

Anyway, yes, we get puppy fever. I am over that after having fostered these rescue dogs for years now. I now cringe when someone uses the term teacup. | |

| Pet stores I live in Mass. and all of the pet stores in the Malls around me have closed, best thing that ever happened. I would go in to see the puppies[if you love puppies, you cant go by without stopping in] and they had big puppies that should have been sold running in a nice yar, instead they were stuffed in these small pens,going to the bathroom and I would tell one of the employees that this one pooped in the pen and is eating it,they dont belong in malls and thry dont belong stuffed in crated begging to get out,I would get sick after being in there. |

| My husband purchased Lexi from a Pet Store and surprised me with her. One week later she was at the Vet with pneumonia and coccidia. The Vet told me after she got better that she didn't think Lexi was going to make it. We called the Pet Store owner and he said to bring the puppy back and he would give me another one. I suspected they would euthanize her ( this was validated by others on this website) so we demanded he pay the Vet bills. The Pet Store owner did and we kept her. She has such a sweet disposition and is a joy. I would like to see tighter regulations and those in place to ENFORCE the regulations. |
