Little Ripple Farm reviews and complaints

This is my second complaint about the two Welsh Ponies that Bernadette Pupilla/Garcia, had picked up from my farm in May. (See first complaint please).
The trucking company that picked up the two ponies in May, showed up here with the small, grey gelding Maranatha Arabesque. I had to walk out to the road to get him from the truck, as my driveway is too narrow near the entrance for an 18 wheeler. The driver was a nice man named Michael, that described in detail about the loading of my pony at Little Ripple Farm. According to him, both Bernadette and her husband were there, also some other young man and a couple other people. Bernadette was screaming and yelling at my pony, ropes were used, scary noises made, etc. etc. Needless to say Arabesque was difficult to load and scared to death. Now remember, I loaded this "crazy" pony myself with a broken leg when he left here, and he walked right on without hesitation, and that was at midnight at the end of my driveway in the road.
Now my sweet, kind pony is terrified of people. I can only catch him out in a paddock, if I corner him now, but he lets me lead him etc. without too much fear, after I have the halter on. But anyone else that comes near him, puts him into a state of pure fear and panic.
So If you want your pony trained, I highly suggest that you stay away from Little Ripple Farm. Also Arabesque has an injury across his nose that looks to be a few weeks old. He was either hit with a whip or thin crop very hard across the nose, to produce a scar like this. I will upload a pic taken the day after Arabesque arrived home, of his injury.

We bought our beautiful corgi Lily on Saturday April 23, 2011 from a breeder named Bernadette Garcia. During our visit she was very nice, talked a good talk, pretty much was a great sales woman. We brought our puppy home and she was very lethargic, which we chalked up to depression from leaving her brothers/sisters. Unfortunately Lily grew very ill Sunday, not even 24 hours after we brought her home. We rushed her to the vet the next day, as good parents would, and to our surprise Lily was ill with parasites, was dehydrated, has a yeast infection in her eye and is extremely lethargic. We have Lily for 6 days so far and have been at the vet a total of 5 times. I called the breeder asking her for some help, she insisted I return the dog for a refund. Anyone who owns a pet knows that there is a love and bond formed, and I REFUSE to return my Lily. My fiance and I want to nurse her back to health, she is our baby now. During a heated conversation with Bernadette she insisted I bring back HER dog and told me that I am killing the dog. I have done nothing but take the best care of my girl. Later that evening she left me a nasty/threatening text. BUYER BEWARE, SHE HAS NO INTEREST IN HER DOGS RATHER INTEREST IN MAKING MONEY. SHE IS A LIAR, LYING SEVERAL TIMES DURING OUR CONVERSATION ABOUT HOW THE DOG HAS BEEN TO THE VET AND IS HEALTHY. I called her vet and to our surprise her vet has NEVER seen any of the puppies. One lie after another. A good breeder would want to help make the puppy better, a good breeder WOULD HAVE brought the puppy to a vet. She said she hopes I get whats coming to me and that she wishes she never met me, perhaps because I have exposed the type of person she is. I love Lily and we will get what is coming to us, our Lily will make a full recovery and she will be with us as our family grows. BEWARE!
