I urge anyone who is considering purchasing a puppy from this person to do their research and speak to other people who may have purchased puppies from this person. I hope this review helps even one person avoid the heartache that my family has experienced.
My mom purchased two puppies from this person in the past two years and both have passed away.
The first puppy, Pouncey was just a year and a half old. After several attacks on another dog and a diagnosis of rage disorder the dog had to be put to sleep. Only after the dog had been bread did the breeder come forth with the fact that the dogs father and some litter mates had been put down for exhibiting symptoms of rage disorder. This person also mentioned that her mother said never to say the words "Springer Rage" out-loud.
The second puppy came to my mom in January of 2018. She had significant health issues including a seizure disorder and mange. One night in January 2019, my mom came home from work, found that Bell was unwell, called the vet and within 30 min Bell had passed away.
The puppies that came out of this pair are also riddled with health issues. One has an undescended testicle and one has bi lateral kidney dysplasia - a death sentence. When Pouncey was diagnosed with rage disorder the proper contact was made with each person that bought a puppy for breeding purposes. They were advised that the puppy should not be bread and that would be refunded their breeding rights fee and compensated for spaying and neutering or they could send the dog back. When the breeder was advised that everyone had been notified in a responsible manner, she said, let me ask my mom what she does, I know she's never said anything about rage disorder to people before Incase they get scared.
Please do your due diligence and ask for references. There are a ton of health issues being kept from families and that needs to stop. I know that everything looks great on the various facebook pages but there are very shady breeding practices being driven by financial gain. The dogs that get bit by snakes? Not the case, they had to be put down because they exhibited signs of springer rage.
DO NOT BUY from this breeder. RUN! She sold me a sickly puppy. I asked her to take back the puppy and refund me. She sent a refund ($950) via PayPal. When she left with the puppy she called PayPal and told them it was a fraudulent transaction and the payment was cancelled.
She has the puppy and my $950. She is a crook and runs a puppy mill. Several people who bought her puppies let me know that they were displeased and their puppies were sick.
DO NOT buy from Krossroad Kennels...Tori Liudermilk
I just put down $400 cash deposit on my puppy last saturday, to pic him up this saturday, she called me on thursday to tell me that my puppy choked on his food and passed away, now wondering should i get my refund and not buy from her, if she doest give me a refund law enforcement will be at her residence to resolve the matter.
in 1998 I purchased a puppy from Jerry Duncan a breeder in Manchester Tn. my Springer Solomon had springer rage at times and it wasnt pretty overall he was a good dog and lived to be 13 1/2 years old.
Any breeder has good and bad reviews, and Im sure any breeder has lots of losses with pups, my cousin in Illinois breeds GSPs he losses pups every year just a common thing, Ive visited Krossroads Springers last week and all her dogs had great dispositions, so that being said you cant please everybody.
when my puppy died last week she called me and has been very supportive.
Just went through a 3 week ordeal with this breeder first puppy died before i got him, picked out a second pup from another litter and was to pick him up yesterday. Tori Loudermilk at Krossroads Springers would not return my calls about picking up my second pup. My girlfriend Amy got ahold of her mother, all the pups in her litters have been killed by parvo! she told me my first pup choked on his food which was a lie, they both died from parvo! Im waiting for my $500 Deposit to come back if she doesnt return it I will sue her in court and she will be paying more than $500. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS BREEDER! she is a lier and is running a puppy mill of sick puppies.
I got a new male pup from a breeder in Villa Rica, Ga yesterday, she told me the same story about Krossroads Springers from 6 yrs ago that her puppy choked on her food and died which was a lie also, they have a parvo problem there and need to stop all breeding for at least 10 years Wildwood kennel is a great breeder and the pup i have now is no comparison to the sick pups Tori is unloading to people! Beware of buying a pup from her, she will be reported and shut down!
The girls Mother stepped in and sent me my $500 deposit back to me, I got it today. People please check out breeders before you buy a puppy Ive learned a good lesson from this, if I would have seen these reviews about her i never would have put the first depost down, she has over 12 adult dogs living in her house and the two litters she had in the house all died also, its ok to be a breeder but you cant have that many dogs in a house, nothing but a breeding ground for disease. She posted on Facebook she has shut down breeding till they find the cause.
Even after all the pups dying she is still breeding and selling pups. People go to her facebook site and look I cant believe this woman is still breeding dogs after having a parvo outbreak.
PLEASE DONT BUY A PUPPY FROM THIS BREEDER!
Parvo stays around for a long time, you will get a sick puppy and it will die after you get it home, please find another breeder dont go through what happened to me with her.
