Hoobly

Hello everyone, I just wanted to share my positive experience so far posting my beautiful fur babies on this site. Fortunately I've had a great experience. I have posted on other sites as well. This site though I have gotten the most responses and results from the responses. I would definitely recommend this site for future sellers and buyers. I'm happy my fur babies are going to great homes. It's a good feeling. I have yet to endure a possible scammer, I know they're out there. I'm on the lookout. There's always a possibility, which ruins the experience for everyone. However some positive feedback is always a pleasure to see too. 😊🙏

I was in contact with this person, that then went to text messages. We agreed on a puppy I wanted to purchase. I put money down and then she had one issue after another, hot water heater exploded, was in a car accident, etc. I sent her additional money to help with her bills in the promise she would meet me half way that weekend for me to pick up the puppy and pay the remainder of the fee. I spoke with her everyday, including sunday, the day of pick up. Her last message was we hit the highway and but need to stop for gas. I drove over 2 hours and she stopped responding, never showed up and hasnt responded since. She has multiple ads running now to scam more people. I am happy to provide screen shots of the conversations.

I was added to a group called hoobly pet Indiana Michigan and Ohio on face book. And it seems to me they are making your website look bad by using your name for the group. I was trying to rehome some pups and this administrator of the group asked if she could have 2 of them for 140 when I was asking 100 a pup. She ended up posting another post asking for in search of pup 100 or less. Which I don't have screen shots of it was deleted before I could. But I want you to be aware of what was going on a

s I assume they are part of a puppy mill pr something if they are trying to get pups like they were trying. I was going to give them 2 and they were asking for a 3rd. I will add my messages with her.

9/21/23 I could not down load or replace kittens pictures in my ad, this seems to be a technical issue. The pictures will not save to my ad. I need these pictures to show customers what kitten they want to buy. I t is now 9/28/23 and no one has fixed the issue or contacted me about it. I have sent multiple complaints. I have used this site for years, could you please notify hoobly to fix the issue

I tried loading pictures onto my ad and then saving them through hoobly site but the site will not save them they do not show up in the ad when I try to replace the picture there's something wrong with the site trying to load the image so customers can see the kittens for sale please if you could fix this so I'm able to sell my kittens I would really appreciate it

I was banned and convicted without trial or reason. There are people that hate and want me not be able to sell my puppy’s so they can buy them cheap and when i’m in crisis mode. Because i’ll be stuck with 8 pups. Happened july 25 5pm.

I had my mobile number deemed as spam and had to prove i did nothing wrong. To avoid this i have to get a burner number. And then my burner number gets deemed as spam just so i lose customers and have to sell to the real scammer that buy my puppy’s at way bellow retail cost.

Only for them to sell them at a higher cost.

Hoobly will not answer my messages or complaints. As i see that 300 people complained and only 1 was resolved. This kind of behaviour and no reason given or a way to prove you innocent until proven guilty. They make you guilty and can’t prove your innocence.

stephyyorkies.com is a complete scam. They advertise Yorkies for sale and say they are out of Princeton WVA. Do not fall for any of it. I drove to the address they gave and the person there said they he had a lot of people showing up at his door. He has no puppies.

I drove to Princeton on Sunday July 23rd and went to the address they gave me. I had already given them a $250 deposit. They sent me emails and of course they had a website. They even sent me a photo of a drivers license (see below)

When I checked the website today the price on the puppies had gone up.

Hello I reached out to Dubord Great Danes about a puppy last month on June 1st. I gave a $500 non refundable deposit for the puppy I had picked with the total price of the puppy being $1500. She wanted to tack on another $200 to hold her longer for boarding fees since I was unable to pick her up when she wanted her picked up. However she had other puppies that she had to board that did not have buyers. I have never heard of such a practice to charge boarding fees to hold a dog another 2 weeks. So she wanted a total of $1700 to hold her for an extra 2 weeks. In good faith I gave an extra $500 deposit until the final payment was provided at pick up. So the boarder had $1000 I had provided her. When I was unable to provide the last $700 she then listed her remaining puppies (to include the one I had deposited $1000 on) she listed the remaining puppies for $1000. When I asked her about listing the puppies for $1000, the same amount I gave a deposit on, she told me those were for the puppies that were not initially adopted or for the ones that didn’t follow through. She put up a fight about returning the second $500 deposit past the $500 non refundable fee. She kept $200 for boarding and only returned $300 of the second $500 deposit. I have never run into such a morally unethical breeder that is supposedly reputable. She changed her price 2 different times and tried to avoid giving back the second deposit I had made and still didn’t give it all back. Breeders like her made this whole thing awful. Note: I tried uploading photos of all of this. If they don’t come through I can send to an email address.

On June 25th I traveled to Akron Ohio to put a down payment on a split face Merle pittbull puppy I did so and on July 12 your member of 14 yrs states she not gonna sell me the puppy I have a signed contract for the down payment and rest due at pickup. It seems to me this member uses this to obtain money from unknowing people with the hopes to get the puppy they traveled to pick out and then they back out of the sale not good business for your site

Some stud service woman emailed me regarding if I wanted to use her Off breed dog to breed with my AKC english golden female. I politely told her thank you for the offer, but I am looking for a pure bred ACK english stud for my dam so the puppies can be registered...

she was rude... I replied back to her she didnt need to be that way and good luck in her stud service though. She immediately sent another email with a attitude telling me she was reporting me...

This profile user contacted me, I replied no thank you and she got all bent out of shape -

people that are like this shouldnt be contacting other users and then getting all rude cause their dogs services arent wanted.

This lady is taking peoples money and not selling anything She also takes deposits and no where on her ad does it state non refundable! So after you pay on a kitten she never meets you she ignores you and you can’t get in touch with her She is stealing from people and I wish Hoobly will take her ads OFF. She is scamming people big time I’m one of them. I gave her a 1500 deposit and she ghosted me and No kitten. Her ad states $1500 a kitten but I was buying kittens for $3000 a piece. I have text to prove everything! She worries the hell out of you u til she gets your money and then Nothing She’s nothing but a LIAR and SCAMMER! Please do has part and ban her! Stacey Koeback is her name 10434 Indian Rd Gloucester Va 2306 I have lost a lot of money and had to explain to children why this woman is such a winch and won’t sell kittens. I honestly don’t think she has kittens to sell she just taking money and using pictures So please BAn her!

Thank you

Louise

Yes, I would like to report designerpups1 for selling Pavo sick puppies. In her ad that I purchased a Merrill Chihuahua from she states they were vet checked up-to-date on shots and dewormed on May 20. I purchased this puppy and was told I could bring it back or she would pay any additional cost should the pup become I’ll . I paid $1400 for this puppy. .

May 22 Monday the dog got deathly ill. I had to rush it to the vet where it was diagnosed with Pavo, I contacted her as she has over 15+ puppiesand dogs at her home and informed her that this puppy had Pavo and that she needed to take those ads down. She asked that I keep her posted on the health of Gigi - I didn’t received a text from her the next day, informing me that I can purchase pumps on Amazon to force feed the part to keep it hydrated. And then I could YouTube how to do it - this raised red flags to me as I wonder if this is what she does to keep her dogs looking healthy until she can get them sold that is if they don’t die before

I told her I would let her know how the pup

Was doing and a decision and then we would move forward with whatever decision

on May 25 my puppy died. I contacted her and she basically told me sorry for your loss since then she’s changed her number and she still has these sick puppies posted on your classified ads. I have reported her to the dog welfare, as well as Toledo Humane Society for cruelty to animals. The living conditions of this place is not in good standing either either way she’s trying to sell and make money off of sick dogs. This is not OK.

Was messaging back and forth with the user mrwllm8278 about purchasing a mainecoon kitten, I received more pictures of her all looked professionally taken and even reverse image searched them on google and found nothing. he seemed legit and had good communication skills at first. i sent a holding fee and a delivery fee since i live over 3 hours away from cincinnati ohio. he even was replying me after i sent the holding and delivery payments which made me believe it wasn’t going to be a scam since i figured i would have been blocked already. I have not heard from him once today which is when I was supposed to meet him to pick her up and i believe i am now blocked.

On 03/27 I sent $250 to Kinsey Archer hpkinsl5896 for a puppy and communicated back and forth through the phone number listed [protected] for several days. A week later when I tried to contact her the phone was disconnected. She said she was from Columbus Ohio and even sent me new photos of the dachshund puppy I “supposedly” purchased. I know I’ll never see the money , but it’s just so sad to me someone would be so evil to scam people about a puppy.☹️

I purchased a morkie puppy from bpdogs25. I was told the puppy had been to the vet the exact day I purchased her. (3/14/2023) I got the puppy home and she had a hacking/gagging cough. I recently had to put my family dog down, and has decided to get this new puppy to help our broken hearts. The cough had us worried so we took her to our family vet the very next day. (3/15/2023) Upon examination, it was found the puppy has tapeworm and mites. She was placed on 3 medications. Also, it was reported puppy was microchipped. Per our vet, the microchip was not able to be found. I have reached out to bpdogs25 and have not received a response. I am sickened that anyone would take advantage of an already grieving family. $900 to have a sick puppy and to spend $139 the very next day for sickness. It is shameful.

lslgld0580 This username has posted chihuahua puppies for sale. I sent them a $75 deposit and drove 2 hours to be stood up. They turned their phone off and won’t respond to any messages. I’m going to talk to the police about it but I think goodly should take down their post. I’m sure it’s already happened to a few other people as well. Whatever you do, don’t let them scam someone else. It was a waste of my time and I’m probably out the money but if there’s anything I can do, I will do it. It makes legitimate breeders look bad.
