I bought a bulldog from Robin almost a year ago. I talked to Robin several times about this, and she truly seemed like she cared. The pup came to us very sick. The vet report says she was mauled, had an eye infection, feet infection and she was had deformity of the front legs. They said she wouldn't live to be an old dog because of the pain of the arthritis she would surely develop.
Robin, seem genuinely concerned for us. She offered us a replacement pup if we sent her back - of course like all others we and our 5 kids fell in love with "Lucy". After months of my continually complaining to her about the pups condition with her legs, and sending her x-rays, and dr. reports - she did in fact offer to send us another pup free and let us keep Lucy, as she would be no good to anyone else.
Months went by, she kept saying we couldn't have any of the dogs on the site, because they weren't hers to give me - she must have finally got tired of me and said she had one. Several more weeks went by and one excuse and another, until she said he was ready. Then she couldn't arrange for a ride for the pup to the airport - so I have a relative in the state who said she could get it. Then that fell through - Robin charged me an extra $250 for her to hire someone to take my free puppy to the airport, along with $300 shipping charge. So my free pup was now $550. He didn't arrive after 3 trips to the airport (2 1/2 hours away). He was now lost! We did finally get him. He was no 8 week old pup. He was 12 pounds. Lucy was 5 pounds when she arrived! This pup has a long tail. She assured us he was an english bulldog not an Olde english, but he looks like a Boxer to us.
Lucy is almost a year now, Brutus is only 7 months. Lucy has demodex (mange), Glaucoma (she is almost blind in both eyes) and has severe front leg deformity. Brutus is long legged, long tailed, large muzzeled, no wrinkles, with Demodex (mange) as well. He is Lucy's guide dog of sorts.
But, we are making the best of it! We love them, and will know better in the future. I hope all the stories I've read are not true about Robin's charater. She seemed so nice to us, but the truth is in the dogs we have. I'm sure not every dog born is perfect, but I got a sick one and a strange looking one. lol
Fondly,
Kris Foxworthy and family
I agree, there are much better ways in dealing with unhappy people than calling them idiots. I love my two dogs, but I don't love the bills that have come with the fact that they are far from perfect. I also don't love the fact that when I let Lucy outside, I have to make sure to be standing right beside her so that she doesn't run into the door (as she can't see it anymore). Did I mention Lucy is not yet a year old?
We saved our money for over a year to get this pup, now we have to scrimp and save everyday to afford her medications. As Glaucoma is a very painful disease.
Anyone who needs picture proof, please feel free to email me.
I'm very happy to have found this site, it makes me feel better to let others know the flip side of buying a puppy online.
Thanks for reading.
Kris
###? That just isn't called for! You know everything in my posting is correct! YOU KNOW it. I didn't say one thing even resembling a lie! You absolutely know you charged me $550 for my FREE replacement pup. You only let us keep the other free one because she is crippled - and now blind! You couldn't breed her.
I don't deserve your miserable name calling. I simply offered my story for everyone else to enjoy.
I got a crappy sick dog from ROBIN SCHULDER or REICH - and she let me keep the little crippled blind thing so I could accumulate all the bills. Then she let me have a free one for $550 after being put off for months on end. All I said negative was that I had to pay when you said you had such compassion, and that my new FREE pup was not an english - but an OLDE english.
You encouraged us to breed them - there is NO way I would do that to some other inocent people knowing that the mange and glaucoma are passed on by breeding.
What language you use! Do you kiss your kids with that MOUTH?
I hope more people read what you wrote. You'll end your own business that way.

WOW - I received a picture of Danielle's "bulldog" purchased from BULLDOGSRUS and I've never seen anything like it! She explains that it looks like an OLDE english or a Boxer, and boy oh boy she is NOT KIDDING.
Her dog has longer legs than my neighbor's Black Lab! NO joke. To me he resembles a boxer or even a Pit. I'm telling you that a stray dog got ahold of that female.
Please is you have any doubts, just ask Danielle for a picture. A picture is worth a MILLION words. I personally would be parked on the door of someone that sold me a dog that looked like that.
Again, WOW...
Ruth,
I'm sorry you can't remember what I wrote - but I never said that my beautiful bullie looked like a boxer. I said Danielle's did. Mine is truly a bulldog in all sense of the word. I can't believe that you can't see anything wrong with her legs. I truly can't believe that. Again, anyone who wants to see a picture let me know. And yes $550 is a lot to a person with a large family, the point was it was supposed to be FREE. I shouldn't have had to come up with another penny. Enough said. No beefs with you Ruth, just get my info. right if your going to disagree with it. Kris
Good luck to all who get a puppy from these people. I hope you have 3 jobs to pay for the vet bills you will inquire.
I'm so glad there are happy stories out there. I hate to think everyone had a story like ours.
Gee do you think Gurtie is impressed? lol
One suggestion - when you tell someone that you will send them a puppy of equal quality as a replacement, please make sure it is of equal quality, and please don't tell them they will get it for free because you are so compassionate, without the understanding that they will have to pay an additional $250 for a ride to the airport.
It made us so angry that you just kept adding on charges for us to get the other pup. We surely didn't have to pay any extra to get the first pup sent to us.
And Michael, we kept the first pup because she was ours from the minute we laid eyes on her. We love her even with her disabilities. These are living things, not "just dogs". Thank you for letting us keep her, but shame on you for sending her to begin with. Do you not think kids will attach from the start?
The second pup nowhere near has the looks of the first one - he is an OLDE english. I was expecting a show quality look like the first (she is so pretty)minus the crippled legs. He isn't - but he was only $550 right?
I hope you are more careful about the pups you sell, or the terms you use when selling them. If anything I hope that some good comes out of all of this. A lesson learned by all.
I'm the newest member of your club! Wish I weren't. My lovely Ice20 is out of service with the exact same problem as stated above! I've been without any fridge at all for over a week now. I have 5 kids and no food. Sears wouldn't hurry shipping up because they said "it wasn't a matter of life or death", as put by Dave in Arizona.
I paid $3200 for mine with the extended warranty. OUCH!
I hope this doesn't happen again.
That's right Jessica!
Mine have both had the "mange" since I got them. Add Glaucoma to the list. Don't you love "the papers" they give out? I didn't even get them for the "replacement" pup they sent me.
Anyone out there with the offer of a REPLACEMENT pup - don't take it - they are of no better quality.
Michael has threatened me with legal action for my comments, but they are all 100% true. And, I don't scare easily.
I have been told that my 2nd bulldog - my very well be an english bulldog (which I didn't think) - but the quality is extremely BAD. My vet stated that the mange is controlled only by NOT breeding. Did you get that Robinmichaelperry? Don't breed them - your passing on the bad trates, over and over again.
AND MICHEALROBINPERRY, I don't want anything from you! I don't want to SETTLE anything. I simply will continue to tell people my experience.
One more thing, Michael has many of my nice emails to them, he'd probably like to share with the world. Go ahead! I AM NICE! I didn't get mad until the "FREE" pup got sick. Then I thought about how they dupped me for more money for the same crap quality of dog.
BUYERS BEWARE! Look on better sites, like Champbulldogs.com or Bigbulldogs.com - they have beautiful dogs with great qualities.
Hhmmmmm, still waiting :)
Took Lucy to the vet today - spent over $120 on her meds.
Michael, keep me posted.
Kris
Day 13 still haven't fixed this fridge! I listen the the ice maker open and close 24 hours a day! It is horrible.
The part still is on back order!
Usually the lies are coming from the people trying to get something for nothing, not the people who want your business. They have no reason to lie.
I have been without a refrigerator for 13 days now! I bought a Maytag h20. Supposed to be a wonderful item - NOT!
They came out, ordered the part - said as soon as it got to me to give them a call and they'd be out to fix it. The part still hasn't come. How does one live without a fridge for 13 days with 5 kids? Don't ask - it is nearly impossible.
As it happens, the part is on backorder. Is that because there have been too many others that are broken the exact same way as mine? YES - look on the complaintsboard under Maytag.
I've been told since it isn't a matter of "LIFE OR DEATH" (by Sears Rep. David in Arizona) that it is not a priority no matter how much I spent on the fridge or the extended warranty.
I will think twice before shopping again at Sears.
They may be here in 4 more days, so they say.
Sears Customer Service Sucks!
Michael,
Is there some particular reason that I've been the only one ignored? You've settled with everyone, sent me an email that you wanted to make things right, then you drop off the face of the earth...
I do expect to hear from you, I am still out here waiting to see if you really do keep your word. I've emailed you directly with no response. Whats going on?
After months of getting No where at all! I decided to take care of business.
Robin and her "Attorney" husband Michael, are LIARS.
We had an arrangement or settlement that I was to be repaid for the shipping of the second dog that they sent me. I shouldn't have ever had to pay for him in the first place. He was sent to replace the deformed nearly blind dog the had already sent us.
Out of the kindness of their hearts they let us keep the first dog, to whom the vet asked us to put down at 8 weeks old. We have 5 children that fell in love with her and we could not kill her.
After months of asking Robin to hold up to her end of the bargain and actually send the 2nd dog - she did. She charged us $250 for shipping and another $250 to rent a van to get the dog to the airport (so we've been told). I don't know about anyone out there but a little crate will even fit in a sports car, let alone a police car.
After more months of arguing over the condition of the dogs, and the cost of the shipping, they decided to be nice and refund $500 of the costs we have acquired.
GREAT! No problem!
Michael being the great Attorney that he is, should know that banks don't accept conditional checks. He sent me a cashiers check with a "book" written on the payer's signature line. I deposited it, my bank sent it back to me. They told me that banks cannot take "conditional checks". I sent back the contract signed, and the check. They said they'd send it out the next day... That was May 20. It still has not arrived.
Since the check episode, the second dog now has come out with the same eye disease that the first one has. The surgery is $1200!
I asked them if they thought it was fair that they sent me 2 duds? Why should I have to pay for the genetic defects that she is breeding. I asked them to help pay for part of the 2nd dogs surgery, which I thought was totally fare.
"Michael" responded that I was in BREACH of CONTRACT and he would be sewing me. Well Michael, I don't have a law degree, but I do know that the contract is null and void if the check never got cashed... Not a lawyer, but not stupid either.
They have yet to send me a replacement check. I'm sure they don't intend to. I have contacted all Agencies I can think of. And an in the process of LEGAL ACTION myself.
If anyone needs more info on these rotten breeders please do not hesitate to ask. HMMM - I looked up Attorney's in New York and there is no Michael Schulder.
Well, now I hear the check is LOST in the mail... Not buying it, but an trying to be calm.
The check has been lost for nearly a month now - he claims the bank has to do a trace - I called the bank, they can trace it, stop payment and replace it all in about 3 minutes they told me.
Sounds like a STALLING to me.
I'm so sad to hear about the sick puppies (mini Yorkies) dieing... It is so hard on the families especially with children when this happens. At least
mine are alive.
Maybe the check will come today... lol... I won't hold my breath.
Michael Schulder or Robin Schulder made me a settlement offer to put an end to all of this. It's been over two months since this started and they are still stalling. I'm now taking them to court to get ALL the money I'm out with the cost of the TWO messed up dogs they sent us.
The little $500 they offered but never sent, is not going to cut it now. They will sued not only for the shipping they were going to refund me, but the cost of the first dog, all her bills and surgery, and the second dogs bills and pending surgery.
They have strung me along for long enough! They claim to have sent me a check and the old story that it was lost in the mail. Michael also claims that the bank needs 6 months to place a hold on the check before they can reissue another one. I called them and they didn't say that at all.
Apparently, they think I'm stupid. They sent me a contract that stated I want to say anymore on this board, I was to contact the BBB and tell them of a settlement, and also contact the Attorney General's office. This contract was all pending I cash a check. They did sign this! I have a copy of the contract signed by them and no check. They accuse me of BREACH of CONTRACT, but in fact they are in BREACH...
They also have another site to watch out for - RBULLDOGSRUS... She is selling Micro Mini Yorkies. I have heard from a few people not happy with them as well. Read the complaints by a Kathy, she had one die from them, they replaced it and the second one died as well.
They also use different email addresses - Bulldogsale1@aol.com and MichaelSchulder1@aol.com and a new one I found, Darron3638@aol.com. I wonder who Darron is. I think Michael the attorney has a couple of alias names. One of which I don't believe is actually and Attorney. Isn't it funny that Robin makes habits of marrying Attorney's. One that there is no record of and one that has done or is still doing time.
These breeders need to stop breeding! They are selling crappy, genetic malformed pups. They are rude, constantly sending threatening letters and Robin with her vulgar language.
I have tried to be nice to these people, sending them pictures and nice emails of our progress with the bad breed dogs. They have come a long way but still one needs surgery. I figured you catch a lot more bears with honey. To no avail! Nothing works.
They refuse to keep their word.
IF YOU HAVEN'T BOUGHT A DOG FROM THEM - DON'T... STAY AWAY FROM THEM. IT IS VERY UNLIKELY YOU'LL GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.
I know some of you have wonderful dogs, I know, I've read it all - this is my complaint... I have a right to my complaint - It is completely valid. I don't need to hear anymore great stories, it doesn't make my story end happily ever after.
Well, so the story continues...
As of today they have no plans of sending me the promised check! Actually, I don't want it anyways. This way I can continue to let everyone know what a horrible distribution center she is running. I'd call her a breeder, but then she'd actually have to do some of the breeding instead of just buying them from Hungary.
Back to the "so called settlement check". I asked them over and over what the check number was for the so called check they sent me, and they could not produce one. Why? Because they never got a second check.
A nice reader of this site in So. CA has offered to help me out in the process of getting my money back. Her husband is an attorney, and says he will take care of all this. It appears that Robin has lied to her as well. Something about her dogs "used" to be Grand Champions and "used" to be registered with AKC. But aren't anymore. She is contacting the AKC to verify the names of the dogs with them. Otherwise she's going to get it for false advertising. She printed out the descriptions.
Seeing as how my second dog "the replacement" has now come down with genetic diseases, I do intend to sue - in accordance with their contract they should send me a new dog (again) - can you imagine getting stuck with a third deformity? There is no way I'd take another piece of garbage bred dog from them. But the law will give me ALL my money back...
They seriously should of just sent the hush money - because this is going to cost them so much more.
Has anyone checked out the Better Business Bureau report on them? It's growing leaps and bounds. Also check with the Attorney General in New York on these people (to whom some of them are made up). Michael now answers to Darron, and Robin's new email is to Micheal's work email - called Darron3638@aol.com... Strange. Hmmm where do Perry, Joanna, John and an Aunt come in to play? Are you all just Robin?
Back to the point - I have one dog mostly blind now - Lucy, and now the second dog, from another litter they sent me Brutus is going blind! What did you do to these dogs?
You people or person will be stopped. I promise, I won't let anyone else get taken for the thousands of dollars you got from me!
Kathy,
The reason "Danielle" knew all of the story is because she is ROBIN/MICHAEL/DARRON - maybe even pretending to be Perry while he's in the slammer!
She is heartless and cruel! I've have people view her site and find me here on the complaints board to tell me their stories. One vet viewed her pictures and wrote to me that they contacted the SPCA about what they said were sick puppies. When I looked at the recent pictures I can see what they are talking about. I got out my dogs baby pictures - and viewed the exact same thing. i.e. the runny noses, and the lumps between the toes.
When enough people complain, she will be stopped!
Have you seen that she is back to selling French Bulldogs... Claimes to have the parents on site. Just how many damn dogs does she have in her house? She claims to have all the parents of all the bulldogs, and now the Yorkies? House must SMELL great!
Along with all the cute designer pups - they are also still on the internet selling GUARD dogs! Can you imagine, a house with Doberman's, Rott's, and Micro Mini Yorkies?
Kathy, you really must get in touch with the Better Business Bureau, and Attorney General's office. They do check into these complaints.
****Coming Soon******
I've contacted a web master, that is going to make us a web site. We can put all of our complaints on there and show pictures. The pictures of my dogs will curl your hair.
Hey Robin
What good is a check that you can't cash? Look for my new web site coming soon. The world will see my Lucy and Brutus. If that doesn't stop people from buying your dogs, I don't know what will.
Also, I heard from a vet that says they contacted you! Are you selling sick puppies again? She said she can see they are sick from your pictures.
You are a cruel cruel person. The hate you must have for animals is unreal. To allow this cruelty to go on and on. It is sooo cruel to bring these animals into this world, that you know are going to have genetic problems. And you know they will. The breeding and rebreeding just for money!
Oh you will be stopped - we will all see to it. No dog deserves this.
We've been trying for a long time to put them out of business - she admits she's a business woman in many of her postings. They are crooks and dirtbags. I have two sick dogs from them!
Keep up the complaining! It can't hurt. You forgot to mention her make believe husband Michael, the NY lawyer that took her last name when they got married.
She is so stupid.
Wow!
You'd actually go back to her. Good luck, at least you've read it all in advance. You know what your getting into. I received an email 3 days ago from another unhappy "customer" of hers. Claimed he bought a Yorkie and got it home and ended up in the emergency for another $900... He feels lied to as well.
It's nice to hear that some of her crappy inbred mutts aren't giving everyone horrible vet bills. I hope that you continue to have healthy wonderful dogs.
As for me and many others, we will push on. Keep after this witch to stop selling these creatures she calls SHOW QUALITY, from CHAMPION LINES. Lets ask her to show us proof of all these shows the parents have won. Lets see proof of these CHAMPION LINES she keeps referring to. She must have 30 females on site to produce all of these pups she sells.
This just makes me crazy!
You haven't heard the last of us yet Robin, Darron, Michael and Perry.
Thanks for all your insite Christina - that makes it all better now doesn't it?
People sometimes have valid complaints. You yourself say you were looking for a bully breeder. Well, we all thought we found one. Apparently, it's a good thing we all wrote what we did. It stopped you from going there didnt it? Or in the least it made you look.
Let us complain to the world - it's the only way to stop the thing she is selling.
Oh Robin, stop pretending to be other people the jig is up! We all now know that you are 99% of all "the happy" postings you have on the board. We'll all leave you alone when you pay our vet bills, and stop selling dogs.
You're not a responsible breeder, your a broker of sick animals that thrives on the Internet to sell not only deformed, but sick dogs.
Oh Robin,
Pick a name and stick with it. Do you have all the personalities and voices in your head to go with all the names you pick? Your just angry your time as a "breeder" is coming to an end. Your sites sicken me as well as others. But if it's me you want to deal with directly - then lets GO. I'm in it for the long haul.
As far a loving my second "free" dog... Of course I love him or I'd have sent his manged ### back to you as well. I have now 2 sorry looking english bulldogs. He was free because the other is crippled. Oh thanks so much for all the vet bills. You cant rip a pet out of 5 kids arms, it just can't happen. You claim to have so many children now in all your sites, (although we know it's just one - totally irrelevant, I just hate liars no matter how small) that I'm sure you wouldn't want to break his heart.
I hate that you keep calling him a "free" dog Robin. What about $550 is free... And all Lucy's vet bills, that is not free. You signed a contract stating you'd give me back that $550 but you went back on all your contracts now haven't you.
You think I need help? Your so funny... The only help I need is putting you out of business. And that is happening as we speak. So keep sending in your little love letters about yourself, we all get a kick out of them. Keep pretending your new husband is Michael, keep pretending you have lots of kids and life is great. Because when the group of us is said and done, all you'll have is memories of when you used to sell dogs.
Crack pot, no not me - your getting confused with what you smoke out of.
I'll tell you what Robin,
You stand by your contract with me and everyone else, and I'll leave you alone.
Seems fair to me.
Respond to that.
