I purchased a dog from this breeder who came to me with a severe heart condition. Instead of refunding my money then sent me another sick puppy who has a brain condition. Be ware buying a dog from them. I personally know of three sick dogs from three different litters. Mine can not be the only ones. The parents with the traits for these congential defects are still being bred!

Being a close friend of Kathleen's I can say I've been there the entire time for the whole ordeal. All the time, money and heart she put into these dogs is quite amazing. For this person to say she was lieing is ridiculous. Sent two dogs with separate problems? hmmm....something's going wrong here. What does she benefit from lieing anyways? She wasn't given money or anything for it. For someone to be breeding unhealthy dogs and putting them through all this pain and misery is terrible. Someone should put a stop to this.

You tied to convince me Spike's heart problem could go away, and never offered my money back until today, just another puppy. And as for the second dog, perfectly healthy? An english bulldog who is 2 lbs at 2 1/2 months is perfectly healthy? Normal dogs would have been between 8-15 lbs and you should know that! She doesnt have brain damage, she has HYRDROCEPHALUS! A congenital defect she has had since birth, that will be duplicated again in future litters. Don't forget the demodex, OCD and joint problems. I know for a fact that the first dogs parents have produced more dogs with heart conditions becuase I was denied one because she had a murmor.

katheline is not telling the whole story.she knew before she purchased the puppy of his heart condition. we informed her as soon as we returned from our veterinary clinic and informed of what we knew and what the vet. had said. we then offered her money back or to choose another pup. she wanted to talk to her boyfriend and veterinary. she called back in 2 hrs. and wanted him anyway so we shipped him. she took him to her vet. and he informed her of his condition and probably wouldn't get better. she called us and we asked her to send the puppy back and we would send her money back. she did not want to do that, she wanted to keep him. we felt bad so we let them pick another pup. she said she wanted a female, thats what she really wanted the first time, but joey wanted the male. she recieved her other pup and checked out fine with her vet.,several months later she informed us she had brain damage. our vet checked her out thourghly head to toe, said she was in great health, no problems, now she has brain damage. we still offer her, her money back as soon as she ships the puppy's back. we have offered several times, they have always refused. she has lied about sick dogs. we are inspected by the veterinary' usda' and akc.if you would like there phone numbers i will be glad to give them to you. we also have proof to back us up if you are interested. this complaint is invalid.
