This puppy mill was going by the name Secret Garden Pomeranians. Ania also changed her name to Anna. She said that she changed due to people using her puppies photos from her Facebook page. The real truth is that she is a puppy mill. She buys dogs from other breeders, sells the puppy and then when she is finished with the female dog she gets rid of it and starts the process again. She has sold many dogs with health issues. This woman is out of Cook Minnesota. Please check out scam report and this site for true reviews

Couldn’t agree more. Not surprised to see she is still going strong with her ways. God was looking out for my Pom I purchased from her- Pippi has been in the best care and has been given the proper supplements to counteract Anita, Anna, Secret Garden 10,000 Lakes whatever name she uses to cover her tracks.

Definitely agree. A deposit was made of 500.00 almost 3 yrs ago. Finally after a long wait she offers a puppy for 6000 when I request DNA results of parents she got a attitude & stated you have to pay for quality. Long story short she blocked me & kept my deposit

Well a cute puppy doesn’t mean it’s quality!

A ethical breeder would share DNA results with buyer. Definitely feel scammed.

The Issues have all been resolved. The breeder returned the deposit. As for the complainant I am unable to remove or edit. I hope the original complaint I made no longer affects someone’s decision to purchase from 10,000 Lakes Pomeranians because she produces beautiful pups.

and has put a lot of efforts into her business. We all have our moments for quick decisions & some times they don’t end up in our best interest. But I would definitely purchase one of her babies if I had the opportunity.

Wonderful, ethical breeder. Anna's dog are beautiful, happy and heathy . I have 4 babies from Anna and I can't tell you enough how wonderful they are. I visited 10.000 Lakes Pomeranians in person each time I was getting a puppy and she is NOT a puppy mill. All dogs live in a house with Anna and her family. Anna makes sure that each puppy is vet checked, well socialized and she even starts them potty training before they leave to their new homes. Whoever wrote the original report is a liar.

I just purchased a puppy from 10, 000 Lakes Pomeranians. I got a very healthy, well socialized, "perfect" puppy as my Veternarinan said at his first visit. Anna loves her Pomeranians, not a puppy mill at all! I think this is the same person that registered a complaint when Anna was known as Secret Garden Pomeranians. There seems to be some kind of vendetta this person has against her. When considering the length she has been breeding Pomeranians, her number of personally owned sires and dams, the number of complaints against her (as 10, 000 Lakes Pomeranians and Secret Garden Pomeranians) she seemed to have a great amount of credibility. I investigated Pomeranians breeders for months intensely. 10, 000 Lakes Pomeranians came up as my first choice time and time again. My Pom will be my Service Dog. I met with my SD licensed trainer yesterday to evaluate the puppy I just purchased, now just 3 months old. He has evaluated hundreds of dogs to become service dogs. In his opinion, my Pom I purchased from Anna will make a wonderful Service Dog - physically, socially, his trainability and possesses great intelligence. If he had any hesitation he would have had told me so blantantly, he also trained my last 2 Service Dogs. She also was very patient and compassionate with me at a time when I was grieving the loss of my last Service Dog. I did not make it easy on her all the time. I truly believe that a buyer would not regret buying from Anna, I know I don't.

This breeder has been attacked as many other reputable breeder by people who hate to see other people's success. There is a FB group of breeder haters. Multiple breeders have been attacked countrywide. The person who wrote this lousy post must have not seen a puppy mill . I purchase 4 dogs from this wonderful breeder and I was at her house multiple times visiting my babies as they were growing . Her poms have better condition than I have myself in my house lol. Clean, brushed, friendly, happy and spoiled. Every breeder buys dogs from other breeders to get new bloodlines, and if they don't work for their program they have to resell them . Not all dogs can be used as breeding dogs and this can be determined then the dogs are bigger. Luckily this wonderful lady is not a dog collector and she cares where her dogs go after she retires them from her breeding program. The argument from a hater person who wrote the review above is silly . I have not met more loving, devoted and honest breeder than Ania or Anna Schelde. BTW Anna and Ania are 2 names that she always have been using . Her friends know that, Ania for friends and Anna in her documents . So here is is a prove of another silly accusation . The person who wrote that post has never had any physical contact with the breeder or her dogs.
