Beverly Hills Puppies

We did not sell a puppy to Mr. Michael Maida. We have had no sale conversations with Mr. Maida. Mr. Maida did not pay us any money for a puppy. We did not have verbal or written contract with Mr. Maida. The first and only conversation that we had with Mr. Maida was last week when he called us. We were at our kennel and the telephone conversation was cut off. Mr. Maida is misdirecting his claim by contacting us for the alleged parvo case of his puppy.

As breeders we sell retail and wholesale. All of the puppies that we sell, as required by Florida law are examined by a licensed veterinarian and certified by a health certificate indicating that the puppy is fit to be sold. All of our puppies are vaccinated against PARVO. There is a possibility that we may have sold a puppy wholesale and then the puppy was re-sold to Mr. Maida. If this is the case Mr. Maida should contact the firm that sold him the puppy.

With respect to the Parvo, if the puppy Mr. Maida received is a puppy from us and the puppy had PARVO all of our other puppies we have had PARVO. We have not had any cases of PARVO for years. We repeat all of our other puppies have not had Parvo and have not been ill.

From our years of experience in the industry, there are a good portion of veterinarians that immediately indicate that a puppy has parvo when there is vomiting or diarrhea or blood in the stool. In some cases there is parvo but in other cases the veterinarians tend to abuse of the situation as a result of charging excessive money for treating the puppy. Since the owner does not know better and because the puppy is sick the owner is forced to pay the excessive veterinarian costs.

In summation, we are not directly responsible for any alleged illness to a puppy that we did not sell to Mr. Maida.

It's sad how we have to disappoint our children because these sick people are sending sick dogs and lying out the ###! We have caught him in his lies! I want to know how to stop this evilness from continuing. I think the profiles made that take up for him are fake! We can't find any info on his so called vets! he is not registered with the BBB like he says. His facebook is so private and filtered he makes sure he protects his ###! he won't return phone calls. What can we do? BEWARE OF MARTIN LEON AND BEVERLY HILLS PUPPIES!1

MARTIN YOU ARE A DISGRACEEE TO THE ANIMAL BREEDING INDUSTRY.

FUNNY YOU DONT SEEM TO KNOW ANY OF THE POEPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT UR FRAUD HORRIBLE BUSINESS YOU ARE RUNNING.. I BET IF I WROTE A FABULOUS REVIEW ABOUT YOU YOU WOULD KNOW MY NAME DATE OF BIRTH AND ADDRESS BET YOU WOULD EVEN KNOW MY HAIR COLOR. YOUR PATHETIC AND I WILL NOT LET ANYONE I SEEL INTERESTED IN YOUR PUPPIES PURCHASE ANY OF THEM IF ITS THE LAST THING I DO… I WOULD LOVE TO TAKE ALL YOUR DOGS FROM YOU NO ANIMAL DESERVES THE LIFE YOU GIVE THEM THERE BETTER OFF DEAD BEFORE THEY EVEN COME OUT OF THE POOR MOTHER.

We do not know who this person is. In our internet world today it is very unfortunate that anybody can post an untrue complaint and this is nothing that we can do. We always keep our promises as stated on our warranty. Our warranty is posted on our website site. Our warranty clears states our guarantees.

I purchased a Bull Terrier from BHP and she is 5 years old today. About 2 months after we had her, she contracted mange, which was VERY costly to fix. After doing research, I found it is passed on to puppies through the mothers milk and that this breed is prone to mange. After 3 months of having to deal with vet visits, many different medications and a lot of money she was cured. We love our dog and feel blessed that she is in our lives, but I fear if anyone that doesn't have the money or time to help the dog through this process would have given up and disposed of it...it was extremely costly! As much as we love our dog and the breed, we would not purchase from here again. I would do much better research and demand to meet the mother and father of the pup prior to purchase. I can't state on the fact that this is a mill, because we met Mr. Leon at his house to view only the one puppy i had picked out online. He was very kind and the transaction went well. It's not his fault that our dog contracted mange, but I am curious as to where all the puppies that i see online are housed? I may have thought twice had i seen that vision.

I bought a French bulldog puppy back in June 2013. She is beautiful and healthy. We are very pleased and do not having any complaints. Don't having read these comments until after the purchase DID have me concerned but she is a happy and healthy dog.

How can one person guarantree a puppy's health? Thats like blaming a doctor for a baby born with a disease. It happens. Dogs get sick I highly doubt that this operation would be still in operation today if it were so bad. And who's gonna write a good review. if someone does receive a good puppy there so happy its not sick after reading all of your ### ones that they forget to write a review. there's no way he would still be in business. My dog is on its way and i have done weeks of research. Im confident ill recieve a great pup!

Joe from Boston

Wow, these days anybody can post a complaint. It does not matter if it is true or not. This is totally incredible. My wife and I have purchased two puppies from Martin and Gloria. They are very decent and honest people. They are the best! I have seen their operation and have been to their home. They know a lot about puppies and they treat their puppies excellent. I very highly recommend Martin and Gloria.

Thinking about purchasing bull terrier puppy from Beverlyhillspuppies.com. Definetly secound guessing if I should or not due to all the complaints that I have recently read! Has anyone had a good experience in recieval of a healthy puppy from the breeder?

Martin, I agree with you. Since you are looking for dogs to sell, you must be a broker. One of those who encourages puppy mills to operate. Shame on you! Get a real life and a real job. One that doesn't encourage animal cruelty or place one of your sickly animals with an unsuspecting buyer.

COMPLETELY ERRONEOUS AND MISLEADING

Let us scrutinize the internet which is relative new to our society and the laws that allow complaints to be posted without proving the allegations. In the internet world anybody can post a complaint without proving any allegation.

Let me be impeccably clear, we do not know the writer of this complaint. The allegations referred to are totally incorrect and false. It is not proper or correct for the internet to allow an anonymous person to post a complaint that contains allegations that has not been proven.

In the case referred to in this alleged complaint, the writer has failed to identify his or her contact information. By writing something that is not true or correct our legal system allows us to sue for defamatory or libelous statements. In this case the writer of this statement has deliberately not included his or her contact information.

Puppy Mills
By Martin Roy Leon, B.S.L., J.D., LL.M

Definition

There is no legal definition of the term “puppy mill.” However, it can be described as a large-scale commercial dog breeding operation where profit is given a higher priority than the well-being of the dogs. The health of the dogs is disregarded in order to maintain a low overhead and maximize profits. Veterinary care, nutrition, socialization, integrity of the breed/breed standard and sanitation are substandard in comparison to responsible breeders, who place the utmost importance on these aspects of husbandry. Illness, diseases, fearful behavior, and lack of socialization with humans and other animals are not uncommon characteristics of dogs from puppy mills. Breeding is performed without consideration for maintenance of genetic quality/breed standards, resulting in the passage of hereditary conditions and diseases from generation to generation. Female dogs are bred at every opportunity with little to no recovery time between litters, until they are no longer physically able to reproduce. Puppies are typically sold through pet shops and marketed as young as 8 weeks of age. The accuracy of their pedigree and purebred status is sometimes questionable (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals).

Conditions inside puppy mills have been documented for decades, with some of the most appalling scenes including dogs that are emaciated and near death from malnourishment, and dogs suffering from a variety of health issues ranging from Parvovirus to heartworm and flea, tick, and parasite infestations to severe dental disease that has led to rotting teeth and jaws (Prisoners of Greed). Dogs are housed in extremely small enclosures, where they live out their entire lives. Under current US law, an average sized Beagle could legally live out his entire life in a cage about the size of an average dishwasher (Mainline Animal Rescue).

I bought a puppy from Mr Leon 3 days ago that is supposed to be an AKC bullterrier, however whenever the puppy arrived at The airport, I noticed something strange. His ears are not standing up as they were in the photo but they are laying flat and he looks more like a Jack Russell or a dachshund. Upon taking him to the vet yesterday, the veterinarian told me he does not look at all like a full-blooded English bull terrier. He looked more like a hound or hound mix maybe with some Maltese in him. I was very upset about this so I emailed Mr. Leon a nice letter asking him if he could please send me pictures of the parents or explain why the puppy is only 4 1/2 pounds at eight weeks old. Putting him at around 13 pounds fully grown. Here are some pictures of him.

I bought a puppy from him over 2 years ago she was 7 months at the time. I had a slightly bad feeling about him when my friend asked where the parents were & he said Georgia. But his wife got very upset & tearful when I took the puppy so that made me feel a bit better ?! Jellybean started having convulsions about a month after I got her home to the Bahamas but they are well controlled on medication. Now she obviously has hip dysplasia but is not in any pain. Apparently all bulldogs have some level of hip dysplasia but getting her back to Miami for a consultation/ surgery is not without complications & expense. I have her taking supplements & she never shows signs of pain, I worry about her seizure issue with surgery ...but mostly I wonder if the bugger Martin Leon knew about these issues. I love her to death, she is totally spoilt & pampered so what do you do just let her have a good life, but I have a bad gut feeling she may not be with us for many years.

We did not sell a puppy to Mr. Michael Maida. We have had no sale conversations with Mr. Maida. Mr. Maida did not pay us any money for a puppy. We did not have verbal or written contract with Mr. Maida. The first and only conversation that we had with Mr. Maida was last week when he called us.

If this is the case Mr. Maida should contact the firm that sold him the puppy.

There are two sides to every issue. Let us scrutinize the internet which is relative new to our society and the laws that allow complaints to be posted without proving the allegations. In the internet world anybody can post a complaint without proving any allegation.

Please respond Thank You

I bought a puppy from him last December. When I got him everything was fine. After three months he got diagnosed with a condition that he will have for life called Hypoplasia of Trachea. His wind pipe is two small. We than had to get surgery that cost $1600 that would not fix the problem just help him breath. After that I got him insured. A few months after his first diagnoses the vet diagnosed with a torn ligament in his nee and bad hips. So once again I had to put him in for another surgery before the age of one. The vet did not want to do hip surgery because bulldogs do not recover well. I called Martin when he got diagnosed with the first condition, he said I could send the dog back at my expense and get a new puppy. I got so sick of dealing with him I stopped calling after a couple months. That being said he was three months old at the time. The dog had a health grantee and clearly that is not the case with my dog. I am in different country and it is hard to resolve a problem from so far away. I would not recommend this breeder to anyone.

First, we are very sad her hear that a puppy that we sold has died. Second, it is our intent to always resolve any dilemmas with our buyer.

This is in response to a complaint posted on 02/28/2009, pertaining to a English Bulldog that was purchased on January 29, 2009. First, this complain does not have a name of who placed.

We can only assume that this puppy was the one shipped to Minnesota. Since the person that placed the complaint did not wish to reveal her or his name; I will not reveal what I believe the name to be of the person that may have placed the complaint.

First, this puppy was shipped with a Florida health certificate signed by a licensed veterinarian. Dr. Jose A. Romano, D.V.M. examined and certified that the puppy was in good health. The buyer was required to have the puppy examined with 72 working hours after the arrival of the puppy.

The telephone call made to me from the buyer on February 19, 2009 the puppy was in good spirits and in good health up until the moment he died. It was my understanding from the buyer a veterinarian the examined the puppy right after he died. It was further my understanding that the veterinarian was not sure the cause of death.

We are for the first time becoming aware that apparently the puppy died because of Acute Pulmonary Edema. This and all of our puppies are shipped with a PAWS warranty that covers up to $1000.00 of medical bills within the first 90 days after arrival. If this puppy had medical issues, why was the puppy not taken for medical treatment?

We would be very interested in seeing the medical reports from the veterinarian that diagnosed that the puppy had died of Acute Pulmonary Edema. NO REPORTS HAVE BEEN SEET TO US BY THE BUYER.
“Symptoms of pulmonary edema include difficulty breathing, coughing up blood, excessive sweating, anxiety, and pale skin. A classic sign of pulmonary edema is the production of pink frothy sputum. If left untreated, it can lead to coma and even death, in general, due to its main complication of hypoxia. If pulmonary edema has been developing gradually, symptoms of fluid overload may be elicited. These include nocturia (frequent urination at night), ankle edema (swelling of the legs, in general, of the "pitting" variety, wherein the skin is slow to return to normal when pressed upon), orthopnea (inability to lie down flat due to breathlessness), and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea (episodes of severe sudden breathlessness at night).”
If proper medical reports are supplied to us we will ship a puppy of her or his choice free of charge, shipping and every included.

In summation, we are now receiving conflicting reports of what transpired with this puppy shipped to Minnesota. The buyer indicated one set of facts and this complaint indicates different facts. We would like to resolve this situation, but we have never been forwarded any medical reports. The buyer never told us that the puppy died because of pulmonary edema. Rather the buyer told us that the puppy was fine up until the moment he died and that the medical doctor did not give a cause of death.

In our website: www.beverlyhillspuppies.com we very clearly state our conditions of our warranty. We will leave this case open pending proper medical report to substantiate the cause of death. Again, if the proper medical documents are sent to us we are prepared to ship another puppy of the choice of the buyer free of charge, shipping included.
