PuppySpot Group breeder experience

I'm sure there are customers out there who have had a great experience with puppyspot. com but from a breeder's perspective, this place is an absolute joke. They have a team of salespeople who collect everything but your social security number to "approve" you to be able to sell on their site. Pedigree documents, pictures of the living quarters, pictures of sire and dam, proof that they're being seen by a vet (All great things for buyers). But once they collect that information and you become an "approved breeder" you'll never hear from them again. Countless calls unreturned, just as many emails never acknowledged. Promises about waitlisted clients, and celebrities seeking your puppy are all lies. We listed 7 puppies from our litter, collectively they amassed over 20, 000 views.. Not one inquiry was received. On top of that I couldn't tell if the counts were even accurate because the would fluctuate up to 300 views up and down every day.

Buyers beware, there is over $2, 000 in markup by these guys, forcing honest breeders to take lower prices because they won't budge on their profit margins. I've read several horror stories - do your research before buying. Ill never do (This type of business) with anyone whose hand I can't shake.

The best part of working with these con artists was marking the puppies sold before they could, by doing my own marketing and making personal connections with my new owners.

Breeders this place is a scam to collect all you information and provide you no servoce whatsoever. Beware.

The reason I really wanted to use PuppySpot to place my English Bulldog puppies was they are sold "Pet Only." This way I feel they are going to families that really want them as family members not large breeders.

PuppySpot works hard to make a customer happy. You are paying THOUSANDS more than what myself as a breeder sell these puppies for outside. I offer a one year health guarantee. PuppySpot holds the breeder accountable for the health of the puppy. I fully understand this but if there are any issues PuppySpot comes right back to the breeder. They aren't offering you something special on top of what most breeders provide. I stand behind my puppies.

What they don't realize is they also work for the breeder. They have a mindset that we're here because our puppies can't sell otherwise. In order for me to furnish you with healthy, playful and excellent bloodlines I put a lot of work and spend a lot of money. To have quality dogs they really need to work with a breeder. Not all puppies have the same excellent bloodlines. Please research the heritage of the puppy you're considering. There are some English Bulldog puppies on their site I wouldn't ever consider buying. A purebred dog doesn't always mean your getting the best bloodline available.

It appears everyone works in a different office. There is no organization and no one knows what the other person has done or said. My last puppy was supposed to be at the airport at 10 am. A late night email changed this to 6 am. I wouldn't even have known this but I happen to look at my email around 4. I call to double check this because it's a 45 minute drive to the airport. I was there at 6 am just to find out it was 10. Now I'm looking at a 4 hour wait. They are not honest. The flight chaperone called me to say she missed her flight and she couldn't make it there in time for the 10 am flight. They told me she did not miss her flight and it was my fault I didn't meet her at 10 am. The chaperone called me directly to tell me so in detail. The travel delays a customer may experience may have nothing to do with the breeder getting the puppy to you. It's a complete lack of coordination of any of the arrangements. I lost the sale on this puppy because the customer was so upset about her not being delivered when told.

At the health check if there are any health issues or cosmetic issues they cancel the sale. Ok I can understand that but sometimes it's a simple issue that can be remedied. They cancelled the sale on one of mine then called me to say the buyer backed out. That was just a flat out lie. They didn't even contact me to discuss anything before just cancelling the sale. Why not work with the breeder and discuss what the issue is? They have a vet assistant instead of a licensed vet. Some common issues are inherent to the breed but easily fixed within a couple days.

If you want a quality dog for THOUSANDS LESS start looking online for breeders. Go to AKC Marketplace, look at FB Clubs especially for Bulldogs. Ask for references on breeder. Make sure you get a health guarantee. Make sure the breeder has completed health checks on adults before breeding. In my opinion try to find small in home breeders not large kennels. I'm not going to breed bulldogs if they aren't inside snoring and laying around my feet. If you do look to buy from a kennel find out about their facilities. There are definitely good ones where the owners truly care and became breeders for the love of the breed.

Just do your homework and you can find the perfect puppy. There are breeders looking specifically to place their babies with loving families.

I find it interesting that they require so much information about you but won't share it with a potential buyer.
I was interested in a puppy and asked for the AKC number of the pup so I could do some research. Wanted to see both parents and the breeding facility where they were raised! Instead of giving me the information I requested I got a hard sell..
this puppy won't last long! You need to move fast to reserve her, etc? When I wanted the information listed above. Got an email saying I could have her at a reduced price! REALLY! This is highly suspect in my opinion! If you can not get the info listed above... don't buy!
Never got the info I was seeking!

With all the marketing they do on their website saying these are AKC registered puppies, why won't they give you the AKC number?

3 horror stories here. By honest people scammed by puppyspot

Luigi. Ciuffardihorrible store and horrible st... Horrible store and horrible staff! I can not express how much damage this store has done to my family and I through their sleazy business. To begin, we purchased a supposedly "healthy" german sheppard from the store in february. Right when we got him home, we noticed he was throwing up food, so we scheduled him to visit the store's vet (Like stated on the store's contract) on their next operating date. The vet said he was fine and that it was probably due to his age and that he'd grow out of it. Two weeks have past and nothing has changed, we took him to our personal vet and he was diagnosed with megaesophagus. Throughout his life he will have to visit the hospital and he will require constant attention due to pheumonia developing from this hereditary disorder. Right away after visiting the vet, we went to the store to report our finding and request a refund. The store manager, immediately told us to wait for her outside. We waited for about 20 minutes before she came out and told us to call or text her after the business closes so we could discuss this matter the next day. We called her right at closing and she failed to answer, we texted her and she told us to bring in our copy of the documents the next day. Right when we delivered them, she told us that the owner would contact the next day. We explained how we couldn't wait any longer due to the dog's illness and requested to talk to the owner. She said he wasn't in right now, so we requested to talk to him by phone. She immediately became furious and said no, that she wouldn't give us his number. We said, we didn't need his number, that if she called on the store's phone and let us talk to him, it would be fine. She then threatened to call the cops on us if we didn't leave the store. We refused to leave without a refund and she called the cops. The cops removed us from the store and put a verbal restraining order on us from coming back to the store until the owner invited us back to exchange the dog. Days past before we talked to the store manager once again by phone, only to tell us that we didn't qualify for a refund due to our contract. She mentioned how the owner was "such a nice guy" that he'd let us exchange our dog for another one. We requested a golden retriever as a replacement, and she said that she didn't know if that would work because they are worth more than a german sheppard. We did research at pet stores around the area and determined this to be completely false. After this conversation, she never called us back. We began filing a lawsuit against this company and ended up on the reality court show, the people's court. The court shortly decided that the store wasn't at fault due to their contract. Their contract states that a pet may not be returned for a full refund, only an exchange, if there is a sickness detected by their own vet within 48 hours of purchase. First off, stating that your own vet is the only person who can say that your dog is sick is pretty shady. Second, megaesophagues is a birth defect, not a sickness, thus rendering that statement irrelevant. Third, florida law states that if an owner finds a birth defect in their puppy within a year, they are entitled to a full refund. My recommendation is to pay the extra money when it comes down to adopting a pet into your family. Please save yourself from the stress and work and do not purchase a dog from this corrupt business!

I went into the puppy spot with my husband with the sole intention to just look at the dogs for fun. I picked up a miniature schnauzer with no real intention of buying but after 10 minutes of holding him I was starting to feel like I should buy him. I am not an impulse buyer by any means and so I checked the account to see how much we had... I went outside to think and when I saw another couple looking at this same puppy I realized that I had to take him home. We signed some papers, spent 527.18 and we're told we would receive his breeding papers in the mail in about 2 weeks. That should have been my first indication that something wasnt right but we took him home anyways. That night he developed a cough and in doing some research I found out he had kennel cough. Tuesday the 17th so my husband took him for the exam and the vet stated that he was fine, just had kennel cough, and gave us medication. I also had my husband ask about the luxated patella (Grade 1) that I noticed on the original paperwork. The doctor said that he would grow out of this and with the meds his cough cleared up fairly quickly. All seemed well for a while. I was so excited and loved bowzer like a kid. What happened next was so heartbreaking. Sunday morning at about 2am he started having seizures. My husband and I woke up to a very odd kind of strangled yelping noise; when we looked into bowzers cage he was seizing. The first one was very short and fairly minimal so I figured this was some sort of fluke. No more than 2 hours later the same thing only worse. We took him to the emergency vet. They gave him an iv, charcoal, and other medications; told us when we left there that morning to take him to boggy creek animal clinic. We went straight there where they continued treatment. I was took him home around 9am. He seemed much more like his little puppy self so I thought this might just be ok. At about 10 am he started seizing again; this seizure was horrible. I rushed him back to boggy creek animal clinic. The vet told us that if it had been anything toxic he would have started to improve so it had to be a liver shunt, which is a birth defect. They kept him for the day. I picked him up at 5pm and all was fine till about 9pm when he had another seizure. His last seizure, we took him to the emergency vet again and decided to put him to sleep. Any other decision would have been too painful on our part and too cruel to my bowzer. When my husband and I went back for a refund the manager made copies of all our paperwork and said that she would have the owner call us back. We told her we would wait and did, for 2.5 hours. We also had to drive to get the paperwork of the 48 hour exam because their fax ""wasn't working"". When I returned I had lost a great deal of patience and told her that there was no reason I should have to wait and I would make a huge deal out of this if I didn't speak to the owner. She said that he would call the following morning. Which he didnt, he didnt get a hold of us untill friday the 11th and only then said, very rudly, we needed to provide a state necropsy report for him to issue a refund. Did I mention that we never received our breeding paperwork? Have picked up the next best thing (After all this was a birth defect) left him yet another message which has not been returned. By this point my husband has contacted wftv channel 9, the bbb and we are preparing to take him to small claims court. Channel 9 is going to investigate because this whole thing never should have happened in the first place and we are not the first people who bought from this place that this has happened to. This puppy mill will be shut down as soon as we can manage it because this entire thing is unacceptable! We are still waiting on a phone call. —

Never buy a puppy from this store! And if you dont believe me just go to yelp and google and read the other reviews... Wish I had done that first. Emilyinorlando01/17/2017 don't support irresponsible pet stores! They need to make serious changes - clean up the store and take better care of their puppies. I went in and saw puppies with feces all over them and fleas. The prices are slightly above average, and the puppies seem unhealthy. Don't support this business.

Puppyspot has kennels and puppymills sending them photos of puppies and puppyspot posts the photos of the puppies. One of puppyspots main head quarters is in utah. How many of you can quess why? The amish must be so excited and increasing their breeding dogs at leaps and bounds. Lol. Puppyspot doesn't sees the puppies in person, and simply posts photos sent...

PuppySpot Group Scam

My mother purchased a German Rottweiler from this company-well a least they said it was a German Rottweiler. My children and I were waiting at her house for the arrival of the newest family member, he was flown in from Texas, and little did I know that once he arrived home I would spend the next 3 hours picking over 150+ fleas from this 8 week old baby. I worked at a vet office for 8 years and this puppy was one of the worst cases I have ever seen. Since he was too young to treat with any flea medication, I placed him in a sink of warm water so that the fleas would travel to his head, their were so many they were crawling in his eyes, ears, mouth, his skin looked like it was moving. His ears were full of ear mites and yeast; he has worms and bacteria in his stool. I wish I would have known prior to the purchase so I could have done some research on this company. I have no doubt this baby came from a puppy mill-do not order your next family member through this company.

I wanted everyone to know that this company does not want to give information about the breeders and/or where the puppies are coming from. I also wanted to say that many people buy puppies/dogs from pet stores that come from puppy mills. This company does deal with kennels/puppy mills and you the consumer need to do your homework. If you decide to purchase a puppy from this site then please research everything carefully. All of your questions should be answered and no company should be tip toeing around your concerns. You are spending a lot of money and and you have the right to know what you are getting into.

My niece called this outfit today. I have owned and bred dogs for over 50 years and advised her to talk to the breeder directly before purchasing a dog via this website. They don't care what kind of home the dog is going to, they did not screen her at all, I think they are brokers for puppy mill puppies. There is no concern for where the dog is going, and they make it difficult to speak directly to the breeder. Think long and hard before you utilize these folks.

Please go to a few local shelters. Look into the eyes of the dogs who are condemned to die because there is no-one to love them. Notice how many are purebreds. Next go to petfinders.com and search for whatever it is you've been breeding for over 50 years. There are a lot, huh? They're all in shelters or rescues. Please consider having your dogs spayed and neutered. Your keeping 7 new puppies a year from the population could mean 7 shelter dogs find homes. I know 7 a year doesn't seem like a lot, but it adds up. If 10 Backyard Breeders each have 7 pups a year, guess what? That's 70 dogs. Just something to think about.

This puppy mill via the web makes me so sad and angry! When will people wake up and realize that for every healthy, cute little pup they 'order' there are two or three or more who were sick and ill treated and didn't 'make it'? What if we started selling children like this? Would that be tolerated?

There should be more at stake for both company and potential owner than just clicking a .com or dialing a 1-800 number to receive a LIVING CREATURE!

Only a fool with too much money (or too much credit-no money) would buy a puppy, site unseen, just from an internet ad. Just read all the stuff on this site and others like it having to do with puppy hawkers and you'll get a real sense of what a huge scam this has become.

PuppySpot Group Terrible mistake

I too almost made the mistake of buying a puppy from this site and I'm glad I did some researching and realized that this is not the best way to adopt/buy a puppy. When I contacted the company with some questions about a particular breed I was interested in, they sent me an email with paperwork for credit card authorization! I hadn't even gotten my questions answered and they were already pressuring me to get my paperwork submitted to them. They have little invested in the welfare of the puppy and alot invested in making a profit. Even though the breeder was located in the same area as I was living in, they would not allow me to meet or see the puppies in person before commiting to buying one. It is very important that when you buy a puppy you are able to see the breeding facilities, the dame and the sire, and to see the litter. Anyone who denies you from being able to meet with the breeder brings up a red flag. I am fortunate now to have found a breeder who is honest and is not out to make a profit, and she is also against this site. She is looking out for the welfare of her pups and makes sure that potential puppy parents have the means (time and love) to provide for the puppy. She has also educated me about certification APR, AKC etc.. and have provided reading material. In my opinion, that is what a breeder should be willing to do, which is provide you with all the answers to the questions you have about the puppy you are purchasing. Buying a puppy is afterall an emotional, financial, and mental commitment and you deserve to be well-informed in all aspects. Buypuppiesdirect.com was pushy and tried to sell their puppies to whoever they can, above all else they are looking to make a profit and thus I agree with the first review that they are the ringleaders of puppymills. I was very apprehensive about buying a puppy from this site and Im glad that I trusted my instincts and declined to do business with them.
