This woman set up a contract on her website that is probably the worst grammatical offense in human history. Not only that; she likes to pick and choose which parts she gets to adhere to! She set up a standard seeming contract for a $100.00 deposit, and the rest of the payment for a puppy due when the puppy left for his new home. She then allowed me to drive (waaaay) out of my way to visit him on a near weekly basis after the puppy was born, and used the opportunity to add stipulations such as only being able to use her vet so that she could keep getting her club discount, and how she would get back on the price, but we'd also have to chip in for the puppy's mother's c section. I thought I was going crazy and started scanning the contract, but could find nothing about either of those two things. The price of the c section that I would have to chip in was $150.00! When I questioned the price/ legality of that she ignored my messages for three weeks, and then listed the puppy I had put a deposit on as back on sale! She took my money and ran, and then finally messaged me back this week bashing with me with every obscenity she could come up with effectively calling me a cheapskate for questioning having to fork over an additional $150.00. It's just unprofessional communication, both the name calling, and not being honest upfront about her contract.

My experience with Sonia has been wonderful. She loves and cares deeply about her dogs and is very selective who her dogs go to. Personally, i admire a person like her who doesn't give a crap what anyone else thinks. She has her priorities right - her dogs best interest front and center. All her dogs are beautiful. She is a busy lady being a one woman show and sometimes you might have to wait for a response but it is well worth it. and she always says if you haven't heard from her to follow up and she doesn't care how many times you contact her. Put yourself in her place, you have 20 dogs and mostly puppies who need care, all the clean up, puppy pads, vet visits..its a very busy job. we love our Jasmine and feel so lucky Sonia let us take her. She is a smart and very beautiful dog and i have no regrets other than I wish I could have 5 of her dogs! thank you Sonia!
I also have one of Sonia puppies. She was and still is an amazing person. He is now a year old and fabulous. Loves his 4 yr old sister ..another shihtzu. I would but from her again. Thank you Sonia.
