Diva Chihuahuas review: Sick puppy scam 8

Alysia (Lisa) D. Turner of "Diva chihuauas" sold me a puppy that cam down with Parvo. It died three days later and she will not return my calls. Similar stories to this about the same person are on the internet. Do not buy a pet from this person! She misleads consumers and is running a puppy mill. Unfortunately, KY does not have very many laws pertaining to breeders of animals and therefore, consumers must be very vigilant. DO NOT PURCHASE A PUPPY FROM ALYSIA (LISA) TURNER.

Hi, I've bought two from her and love them dearly. I lost one a couple of months ago at the age of 10 and still have my other one. I would love to get another from her but cannot find her website anymore. Can someone help me with that?

Lisa (Alysia) Turner sold me a Maltese puppy that came down with Parvo a day later. The vet said it was absolutely the breeder's fault. When I call her she either does not return my calls or has someone else answer and say she is not there.

I have proof.. My mothers dog is the one who got demo mange, as well as him not being full blooded.. by looking at him now, he's obviously a weenie dog chi mix, not only that but he also had parvo. I reported her to the ASPCA as well as peta when i found that there were other puppies dying from Parvo from her. BTW, Demo mange is from the PARENT.. so yes, it is her fault. She wont let you go to her house to pick the puppies up.. Hmm wonder why?

IM WONDERING IF THIS IS JUST BREEDER WARS GOING ON OR CYBER BULLYING
UNLESS YOU HAVE PROOF OF A TRANSACTION DO NOT POST.
I HAVE SINCE FOUND SEVERAL BREEDERS WITH WRITE UPS AND THE SAME POSTINGS
WHICH MAKE THIS A BOGUS SITE WHERE ANYONE CAN POST ANYTHING AT ANYTIME
WITH NO PROOF. VERY SAD.

I have bought from her several times. I have talked to her references and seen them in person. I dont know about all the other stuff Alysia was supposed to say about her husband and everything, she never mentioned it. All i know is I have wonderful dogs and puppies that i have got from her recently. Im not saying you didnt get a sick dog. Just saying it could easily happen to anyone..

The type of breeder that has many customers that love her dogs. SHE HAS PEOPLE THAT BUY LITTERS AT A TIME BECAUSE THEY LOVE HER PUPPIES! I had to meet her at the same time she was meeting a lady buying out a litter and talked to her. She said that she always bought as many as Lisa would let her. I think the woman resells them, but still! She loves the puppies and only buys from Lisa (or thats what the lady said)
And i read some of those and they sound about like the same complaint from the same people. So one or 2 accidents. A tiny puppy can get parvo VERY EASY! I will be buying from her again and i would tell anyone else to. It is a chance you are taking when buying a small dog.

I have been to Alysia's house. SHE KEEPS HER DOGS INSIDE! I also bought a Chihuahua off of her and loved her. She was so nice to me. Any business will have some downfalls or mishaps. But I have seen her house and her dogs in her house. I personally think she is wonderful and treats her dogs like she does her kids. Several of my co-workers and friends have bought from her as well. All of our pups are wonderful. You really just have to know what it takes to raise a tiny puppy. They can die from anything when they are tiny. They can die from being HELD TOO MUCH. they can die from a SUGAR DROP. They can die from STRESS. and btw. parvo is very easy to get. A pup can get it and die the next day when they are tiny. You can pack it in on your shoes or anything. So it could have been her doing, but it could not have been also. All i know is i have got a wonderful healthy dog now, and so do many of my co-workers and friends. I will buy from her again!

I just bought a beautiful tiny Yorkie for my wife. Lisa was a pleasure to deal with and did everything that i asked of her. My transaction was wonderful, and I for one would definitely buy and advise anyone to buy a healthy well taken care of puppy from Lisa. John Cassotta
