The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.

This company does not act ethically. They do not pay breeders for puppies delivered and they do not pay employees on puppies they sell. Employees are given a dollar amount for each puppy they sell. This comes out of the fee the puppy buyer pays to receive a puppy. The owners of the company change numbers in their system so that employees aren't given credit for what they sell - these employees work on straight commission and are required to week 43 hours per week. The puppies are very expensive and it is a hard sell so when even one sale is taken away from an employee, it makes a big difference. They claim to be upfront but behind closed doors, there is something else going on. The sales manager walked off the job after 5 1/2 years, in part because he was not paid for his work. The owners talk bout how to make the rent, utilities and coffee maker products payment in front of employees so there is no sense of security in this business. Just a little behind-the-scenes insight for potential customers - be VERY careful.

What a joke! People stay away from BREEDERHQ! I'm a breeder who they sold one of my puppies...had it vet ck'd, microchipped and flown out.I out 300.00 plus out of my pocket. They have not paid me my money! They won't return any of my calls, answer emails...nothing! I spoke to the buyers who rec'd my puppy and they are absolutly happy with there baby. They are so mad I haven't gotten my money from them when they paid over 2000.00 for the pup 3 weeks before they rec'd it. I could kick my own butt for sending this pup without money in hand...but the buyers were so excited on there new baby I just couldn't let them down. My puppy has a wonderful loving home and even if I never get my money I'm happy she is where she is. Just think if I wouldn't have shipped the pup?The buyers who spent over 2000.00 would be out of money and no pup. I hope this Complaint will save any breeders from advertising and any buyers from buying thru this company.

I heard their office has moved again and they are now in another area of Hollywood or maybe Davie, Florida. Showcase Breeders has several websites now like Showcase Bulldog Breeders or Showcase Yorkie Breeders with the domains like bulldogs.showcasebreeders.com
Showcasebreeders.com and the people who run the site are linked to many other bogus puppy sites like breedernetwork.com and puppyhq.net breedersdirect.com premiumbreeders.com
Please do not fall for the "we are so great" and "we only have good breeders' type lingo. It's all a scam and in my opinion Vincent Chhabra is noting but a first class scam artist. Again, you can see that PuppyHQ and Showcase Breeders have the same dogs with the same ID numbers! How long can this go on, does nobody care about the puppies?

Hey, check out the puppies on PuppyHQ.net and then check out the puppies on ShowcaseBreeders.com Looks like another site up and running with the same pups. I have no clue who is running Showcase Breeders, but there seems to be the same pups so I am guessing it must be the new PuppyHQ.net / BreederNetwork.com / BreedersDirect.com / PremiumBreeders.com and whatever other name they may have used on the past. Ironically enough, I stumbled across the ShowcaseBreeder site and did not even think it was the same related. But, looks like Chaabra is at it again! Please post if you find out if they are in fact related. I know they have to be, but if anyone has more info on this new site, please warn anyone you can.

Looks like PuppyHQ.Net is up and running. They even have a Facebook page promoting the pups they are trying to sell. Looks like it's time to make some easy "Christmas Puppy" money by selling to families looking to get a dog for Christmas. Buyer Beware!
Here is the FB page: http://www.facebook.com/PuppyHQ

I do not recommend purchasing a puppy from BREEDERS HQ. We purchased a male black and white shih-tzu and paid 1, 334.00 dollars for him He was shipped from Rose, Oklahoma. I noticed his mouth did not look right shortly after he came to us.
His lips do not come together and his tongue hangs to one side. I took him to a dog dentist and the diagnosis was WRY MOUTH. Consequently, his teeth on one side of his mouth are always showing. and his tongue hangs to one side. The only way it can be corrected is braces according to the doggie dentist. He is the third shih-tzu we have owned . Our other two doggies were rescue doggies. Never again will we deal with a breeder.

Well, it looks like they now can add PuppyHQ.net to the list of sites they are using!
Puppies, school, and drug sales!
americanonlinehigh.com
americanhighschool.info
puppyhq.net
drhq.com
and so on...

Puppy HQ
Puppy Headquarters
Puppyhq.net

all the same stuff as breederhq.com or Breeder Headquarters
Buyers beware and do your research before buying a dog. there are so many to rescue, but if you MUST buy one, make sure you do to the breeder yourself. TRUST ME!

I have heard that they are doing the puppy site and school site. BreederHQ.com and Americanonlinehigh.com I am not sure if the drhq.com site is running or not. When my friend left the company she said it was being talked about like it was the next big thing, but nothing was being done in the office. She said that Vincent was talking about some pharmacy that he bought to ship the drugs from and there was a doctor that would come in and out of the office every week to help start it I guess. The names are registered with CareHQ.com and that site takes you to drhq.com for the doctor stuff or rxhq.com which looks like the drug ordering site. I am really not sure how this company is supposed to work, but it seemed like he is back in the drug business.

I have to agree. This sounds just like the way every company in that office was run.. Breeders Direct, then Premium Breeders, then Breeder Network and now BreederHQ.com as well as American High School. Yes they also run a high school from there and a mail order drug company and doctor network drhq.com very sad they are still treating people that way!
