Beware of this breeder ..Bought a puppy from pat at alluwee labradors and it has been diagnosed with severe bilateral hip dysplasia at 7 months old. Ofa chief of veterinary services confirmed the diagnosis and when he looked into her ofa certifications was unable to verify the certifications she claimed. Any reputable breeder would have immediately refunded the money as this is genetic. She had no concern or compassion. Simply stated she didn't have to do anything. Horrible person let alone breeder. Do not buy anything from this person, she is dishonest and breeding poor quality dogs and selling at top dollar to unsuspecting families. Nothing but misery will come from dealing with this woman.

Her newest scheme is to list the dogs under her husband John's name and contact so as not to associate with Alluwee Labradors. They are one in the same - John and Patricia Beatrice of Ashburnham, MA.

Her newest scheme is to list the puppies under her husband's name John. They are one in the same - John and Patricia Beatrice of Ashburnham, MA. They took down their website and disconnected their phone in hopes to avoid reprecussions. Do your homework and know who you're buying from - NOT THEM!

Newest update: changed her name from Patricia Beatrice to Trishia Rice online and changed her email from labsforme@comcast.net to perfectlabpuppy@gmail.com. Do your homework as she's crafty in hiding her identity for a reason. DISHONEST through and through. If she or her husband give you directions leading to 261 Stowell Rd in Ashburnham, MA to purchase a pup - that's them.

Indeed same litter. I truely hope you're one of the lucky ones...minor dysplasia instead of severe. Just be aware and look for the signs of dysplasia in both hips and elbows which this litter is prone to. Also be aware, you'll never rectify with this woman as she doesn't care about her animals or yours.

Linda..i sent you an email under complaint board if you want more info. I originated this complaint because I knew there would be other unfortunate dogs from this litter. My beloved Bear was diagnosed at 7 months but the signs were there from the start. I've been through all the emotions that you're about to begin. I'm so sorry for all of us that were taken by this woman, but ever more sad for the dogs. The specialist that looked at Bear and his xrays had little good to say. He needs total hip replacement and they made it clear that this may/may not be beneficial for him. He would be in pain for all of his life, hopefully the surgery would minimize it somewhat. The outlook was very bleak. Keep in mind surgery is approx $10k with surgery and pain pills and therapy and possible more surgeries with complications.

I contacted OFFA, and got response from Chief of Veterinary Services who confirmed the pedigree was FAKE, all her certifications are FAKE. NO OFA certifications on file. I contacted CERF, certification is FAKE. I contacted AKC, who is very difficult to get to help from, they assume no responsibility of course, so you have to be persistent and the DNA profiles are FAKE. I doubt the litter was ever registered with AKC. I was unable to get AKC to verify the litter. As I mentioned before, she has no business license in the town of Ashburnham, and no kennel license. I wouldn't be surprised if there's other major issues with her. Fraud is difficult to prove in court, so get a real good ANIMAL lawyer. If anyone else finds out more on her please post for all of us.

Correctly put Linda. She's not a breeder. I've been in contact with a breeder who shows her dogs, does have Champion lines, and was a competition judge. In her career, she told me she has only had one dog that OFA certified as excellent. She has been coaching me about all the red flags that PAT has. She's about as disgusted as a breeder can get when someone does something like this and doesn't take responsibility in any way, shape or form. I thank God some of these posts have healthy pets. They simply don't understand the anguish we're going through because she lied about everything. She's not a good person at all. Thanks carowren for the Facebook page info.

Everyone who has purchased a pup from Pat should write/contact Attorney General's office. Once they have "enough" complaints about her, it will trigger an investigation. By number of complaints already listed here, and this doesn't account for folks who haven't found this website, there should certainly be enough.
