Chinese crested puppy buyers beware!
Well they deal in others too: "Nosam Kennels proudly produces German Shorthaired Pointers (GSPs) and Hungarian Vizslas, bred for both performance in the field and companionship at home." From www.nosamkennels.com
Long story its time this stops with people sending thousands just to be lied and wonder if the dog they bought is even the right dog. And be denied the basics in a purchase of an AKC CH like vet records or shot info for 6 months just to be defamed for asking!
I'm writing this and will post screenshots as to the conversations but basically so no other first time buyer has to go through this just trying to get a pet and a dog that I plan on doing a family outings with. Happy times and this whole situation it's just really sours me and it just I'm so disappointed in writing this that it didn't have to be like. Especially when you see all the logos of AKC breeder of Merit and supposedly this person Sirra Combs and Marie Davis judges and this is a BUSINESS. This is just gone from sketchy to defamatory.
>I saw puppies advertised that I liked for the last couple years on Qilin Chinese cresteds Facebook business page and I saw a Junior's dog offered that was 4 years old so I approached them about buying a chocolate puff puppy and the Juniors dog. Long story short with only three pictures to go on of a flaccid puppy that was supposed to be top show quality there was a lot of pressure for money. When I finally relented to send the money the next morning when I showed my husband that night the word chocolate was removed from the dog's ad. I understand dogs change color. But the breeder was insisting it would stay dark. So why REMOVE word chocolate?
The 4-year-old femake chinese crested for sale and messages on Qilins chinese cresteds Facebook from Sierra Combs was an AKC Champion and would be up to date on her shots day of delivery and also UKC shown by her son. With the words changing on the puppy to be honest I got leary. But my relative went ahead and bought the four year old in April of this year.
Since I saw she actually got a dog I approached again about buying a puppy. So then all the sketch things happened again. This time there was a lot of excuses not going to give papers at all as basically they couldn't. I I said I'd sign a contract and show in altered conformation ukc as I had no desire to breed.
That wasn't good enough. I had also asked them to pick the puppy they thought it was was more show quality and the sex didn't matter. I also made the mistake of asking them is it normal to take six months to get your AKC papers transferred. As it took from April to October for the owner to get the papers on the older four-year-old.
So of course everything went downhill from there. There was Sierra Combs goes on this big rant on the Qilin chinese crested messages about how she just sold the dog for her friend her name wasn't on the papers she had nothing to do with the transaction. But that's all lies.
I will show screenshots as she told me her son had been showning her last year in ukc and they just hadn't transferred yet and it'd been over a year they owned this dog and it's in text to the owner. At that point I hadn't compared notes but in talking with the owner it seems they still did not have shot records or any rabies info and couldn't get that UKC number so she can show in a show next weekend that closes tomorrow oct 17th.
When texting Sierra combs shes ghosted.
So Sarah Combs from Quinlan Chinese Crested proceeds to ignore the fact she said the dog was supposed to be up to date on all shots and text to the owner and to me at the time she was trying to sell it to me and makes accusations implying the owner must be neglecting the dog as she hadn't got her shots yet in 6 months.
Then she types of big passage on her Quinlan Chinese Crested Facebook business page about people just trying to get dogs to breed and that had nothing to do with anything of this so she had posted in the last 2 weeks about people accusing her switching papers I think the last name was Cunningham and another person she refunded the deposit cuz they also did not get the dog they bought or had got different pictures then what they sent money on she tried to black out the names but was defaming the people there too. These are all people just trying to buy a puppy agreeing to alter it so none of that applied to this big Rampage about people trying to sneak breeding by showing the dog.
Literally I know the owner of the four-year-old is begging for the UKC number to show and was concerned in givibg a whole new set of shots and it can affect a small dogs health. Its risky to over vaccinate.
I'll post and you can read how Sierra combs from Qilin chinese cresteds and Nosam kennels is withholding just the basics in sellibg a dog that was advertised on the chinese crested site of Qinlin and Sierra Combs and her husband Alexander met in louisville metro to conduct the sale. They were supposed to have her medications. Dog food. Vet shots info. The owner got a busted pink leash and promises. here we are 6 months later...and they are saying shes neglecting the dog as she didnt get shots. What pathetic excuses. I shoukd known by the non taped chinese crested ears on pictures of scared pups w no videos...this in my opinion is just people making thousands and who knows what you end up with. Ukc couldnt even confirm this dog was ever shown. Im Her owner...sole owner as sierra saying she co owned was a lie ..had a different chinese crested entered. Not the 4 yr old. Sierra combs wasnt on her papers as co owner.
The owner paid in full. So to withholding shot records besides ukc number really puts the dog at risk. Why risk the dogs health by over vaccinating? They just cared about cash. Shame on Qilin Chinese cresteds for the unprofessional money grubbing.
This is based on my experience and my opinion after dealing with them over a year.

Country of complaint: United States

Recommendation: go elsewhere, dont loose your joy on what should be a great experience

Why didnt you just send provide the vaccination records in the last 4 months when asked? Sierra Combs said you, Marie Davis, and she run Qinlin chinese cresteds and she owned a gun dog kennel too. She had bought her and had her shipped in from Mt. for him to show, her son, in jrs. She provided the picture of him winning Group 3 with a dog that won in the Aug. 9th, 2024 Mason Dixon Dog Club UKC show. Sierra said the dog in the picture (thats public on your instagram btw and was used only as it was in her sale of this chinese crested Akc Ch. so I'd be careful with accusations). Sierra Combs also texted and messaged 6 times she was utd on her vaccinations. In Aug, Sept, Oct the Qinlin Chinese Crested Facebook page was requested to please send vaccination proof and her UKC number. From the shot records you obviously owned her from June 2024 til April 12, 2025. YOU OWNED HER.

So why did Sierra Combs say she "just sold her for a friend?" Sierra Combs said she bought her, but then "she never owned her.'

As a self-proclaimed "Premier Breeder of Chinese Cresteds", I hope you do keep records. How can one update shots if they have no clue of any previous shots? It risks the dogs immunity and health to over vaccinate.

How can you show a dog in UKC if you do not have the number she was shown under? As a SELLING point, she was sent a picture of a Jrs showing a dog with " He has only shown her in UKC"..and a following picture with her breeder finishing her AKC Ch. Very clearly representing these as the same dog, as she wanted an experienced Jrs dog.

As a self-proclaimed "Primier Chinese Crested breeder" I will ask you one question, are you claiming that dog in the pic with the junior winning the Group 3 (used to up her price as a Jrs. dog and pointed in ukc) is the dog that was recieved? I would love to hear your answer on that.

As to switching photos, colors, and double talk and sketchy practices and Sierra just contradicting herself, and outright lying in writing is what upset me, not only to me but the person who gave you the benefit of the doubt and just kept waiting up to 6 months. It took this to see any shot records. Thank you for the crash course on applying for a ukc pl number. But akc and ukc both need the owner of record or if a jr, their guardian to be able to register the dog. As a selling point, she was supposed to be the dog in the picture with the child jr. Is that why you want it down? Its public on your instagram and was used as a representation of the dog she was buying as ukc group placing.

Is that the dog she bought? Feel free to include the whole complaint its public record. And it clearly states 181 days x 25.00 a day is what adds up to the amount.
Alexander Combs of Nosam kennels took the cash and handed over the dog. Sierra said shed have vaccination records, food, and her medications. She got a busted pink leash. Thats it, instead.
Excuse any typos, I am sure that is the equivalent of switch and baiting buyers, you know, theft by deception or just plain fraud in my opinion by misrepresentation.

On Thurs, when you tried to contact her, she was in Tn with the dogs breeder at the Nashville/Murpheesboro shows. A little late when she just wanted the dogs vaccination and ukc number so she wouldnt loose her supposed points by getting a whole new TL.

Maybe you guys should get your stories straight. But putting in text "no contract", then lying to BBB and the Attny General that since there was no contract, there was no transaction, hence gaslighting you basically didnt sell her from the way its worded. I can post the response I saw on public record with all the screenshots pretty much showing thats false. Since you are so hip on grammar, when you write a letter theres supposed to be a persons name who wrote it. Not just a basic footer. Marie Davis of Qilin Chinese Cresteds was not at the transaction, Sierra and Alexander Combs of Nosam Kennels were.

But circling back to the public picture from your instagram https://www.instagram.com/qilinchinesecrested/p/C-dI0rOAZPZ/ that everyone can see without parental consent and used to sell the dog as ukc group placing and pointed, IS THAT THE DOG THAT WAS SENT? Answer that truthfully.

I did prob get too upset when I heard after 6 months, she just got the akc transfer completed but still no vaccinations, ukc number, or rabies. WHY? If the ukc number and vacc. records not withheld, it wouldnt have looked intentional. You ghosted her, and Sierra did. I will post ALL communication and texts, and pictures of the akc ch from a baby and all her wins. Take a poll if its the same dog? If you'd like?

I think waiting 6 months while no response to repeated requests so she can use the dog for the purpose she bought her was more than generous. She said she wanted the info to show her month and month.
Gee, she owned her a week finally, shes already entered to show.

But, lets answer the question: did she get the SAME dog in the ukc group placing picture?

I approached you twice about buying a puppy. I backed out the first time on the female chocolate puff chinese cresteds puppy named Milky Way because as soon as I agreed to send the money, you removed the word "chocolate" from her listing. That was sketchy. As a "prime liar", oh, I mean "premier" chinese crested breeder you knew she would white out and was a sable.

My experience and how you treated me, plus the contradicting facts and downright dishonesty in something as a business you were selling, and in trying to buy something you offerered for sale is what my reviews are based on. They are based on me as a buyer and your actions as a seller.

I would not trust your recordkeeping.

I did not ask if she did not get the dog as named. I asked if the minor, who you have included by sending a picture with him in a representation of the dog offered for sale, holding the group 3 ribbon to imply the dog purchased is that dog in the picture. Was the dog that won at Mason Dixon Dog Club on Aug 9 2024 a group 3 w the jr., the same dog? I think the dog in the picture is a different dog to represent a dog that could be handled by a child, had been shown and won ukc points.

Post how to get a PL ukc number all you want, to veer from the truth- if she was to get a new Pl number the dog would lose her ukc points. They blend them if ownership changes. The minor was listed as owner.
Until Oct, 6 months later, you have not produced the vaccination records, ukc or rabies info. So yes, when you withhold the info for 6 months, and ghost the person and badmouth her because she waited giving you the benefit of the doubt.

I based my reviews based on my experience in buying a product your business had for sale. As it was a relative of mine, and couldve been me, I hate the way you treated them.

Also, as I have a young child, I have to note that you offered a "jrs dog" with a pic of that dog supposedly winning group 3. AFTER the cash handed to Alexander Combs and he handed the leash over, from Nosam kennels, the buyer informed she will kill birds, cats, puppies, and especially another female crested if shes alone with it or it gets in her crate. It was an Easter event and walking the dog to the car I was told she growled at every kid, esp. young girls.
THIS KNOWINGLY you send to a home that has birds, older dogs, and you wouldve sent to me w a young daughter?

The owner is livid at how traumatized this dog is and what you did to this dog- so I am sure you will be hearing from her. In fact, I will be a witness.

+People shouldnt have to beg, be ghosted, drama etc to just get a transaction completed with the info promised.
You DIDNT CARE if the dog was dangerous to children, birds, cats, puppies, other cresteds as to YOUR ENVIROMENT and what it did to her. Thank god her new owner is experienced with dogs that have been traumatized. I guess the poor thing paid the price for no puppies produced in your puppy factory. Did you ever thing the stress and environment was why? Did you damage her doing backwoods AI w tubes?

OH- and yes, "typos" are way worse that your actions, but you are right, no one takes you seriously if you have a typo.
IRONIC that when a LLC or any business has to publish its address to be transparent that the address on your puppy farm has a typo to be misleading. Just like everything else in your "business practices". The typo on the street, publically on a website, makes it hard to find as its not correct.
But, you said it, typos make people "not take you serious". You would know.

Sierra Combs said the cresteds are her minor sons, so why there is not an llc?, and Sierra said SHE owns a gun dogs kennel. As his parent, and all the kennels/ bird and dogs business same address (being slippery) they are intertwined.

But yes, my reviews and description of what I experienced directly, witnessed, read, or saw and my opinion on what I heard as I was going to partner in the purchases of what your businesses were selling is what I based my opinions on your business actions, dealings, information versus fact, and swapping pictures or info to make a sale.
Milkyway you told me would be dark chocolate, knowing she would white out. I didnt know any better and thought I could trust an honest response in a breeder experienced in their puppies and how they develop. Now its been pointed out, the white emerging, once you clipped placed showed that. You chose to try to represent her as a chocolate. Thats why when money was coming you hurry and took the identifying word "chocolate" off, so when she turned out to be a different color upon arrival or very soon after the word cholocate was gone.

Anyway, NONE OF THIS wouldve happened if you had just produced what you said was "included" with the sale of the "JRS" AKC CH female chinese crested. You were paid in full, but refused to supply what was needed to finalize the sale. From what I hear/witness/saw. My opinion only. Dont ghost people, lie and then slander them- as this drama couldve been avoided. Just my opinion.

_Plus there is NO WAY to get this summer and time back, as JRS a short time period, that was lost in trying to complete the transaction when you ghosted the buyer. I would suggest punitive damages too, myself. You robbed them of a lot of joy, and she bought the dog to show this summer. You prevented that. Suggesting she show under your name or the minors, is ludicrious. Were you going to pay fees?

There is no use chasing a snake to ask why it bit you.
But you can warn others of the experience to provide a safe enviroment for future buyers. If paid in full, its your responsibility to give them what was included in the purchase in full. Snake.

"Furthermore, if you are not the individual who purchased the dog, your statements are hearsay."
Ironic you state that Marie Davis.
Applying that logic, all of YOUR statements would be hearsay unless you want to clarify how you were involved?
-Sierra Combs was who set the terms of the sale, place, day etc and Sierra Combs was who withheld all the things said to be delivered that day
-Sierra Combs was who was writing through the Qilin Chinese Crested facebook page as she identified herself as in cresteds with her mom, and had purchased the akc ch for her son
-Sierra Combs was who also stated she owned a gun dog kennel, NoSam, and she and her husband also had game birds and they also ran gun dog classes etc at the NoSam kennel (oh, interesting on the www.nosamkennels.com site says its "50 acres" with a "facility" but the address (publical info for a business) says it 34 acres with a 795 foot trailer on it. Facts sorry that are easy to look up. Interesting that when people tend to lie about small things, they usually lie about big things too.
-Sierra Combs was who talked on the phone and texted from about the sale of the chinese crested female akc ch.
-Sierra Combs was who said, after her husband took the cash and handed over the dog, and (they secured cash) that the dog who had just resided with them in their gun dog training enviroment (with puppies around in 5 breeds etc) would kill birds, would kill other female dogs or puppies esp. if they got into her crate, would kill cats or anything she could, and was not good with children. That was demonstrated at her growling at the young children w Easter baskets walking by I was told.
****KNOWING this, it Sierra Combs who after owning this dog at least June 2024 til April 12 2025, sold it as a Jrs dog into a home with birds, pets, and to be shown around other animals and children.
How is that a responsible AKC Breeder of Merit?
Thats why I am upset too, I would have bought that dog along with a puppy if you hadnt hurried up and switched out the info on the puppy so I just didnt send money on Milky Way. You never said no. You did know that a dog that you say is a bird/other female cresteds/puppy killer you placed into a home that they rehabilitate and work with bird sanctuaries?

To be honest, the owner said she "appreciates" I am outraged for her, the treatment of her as just someone who saw an Akc chinese crested offered for sale and chinese crested puppies for sale in Kentucky on your Qilin site. But is upset as she doesnt want to embarrass breeder and is more hurt at giving you the benefit of the doubt when she was being ghosted, then you badmouth behind her back in writing her saying shes "neglecting the dog if she had her 6 months no shots". That was unprofessional and very low character, she had the right to ask for what was said was included in her purchase. HERE is the first time she has seen any medical records! You post here, instead of send to her when requested in writing so she could use the dog as purchased in July, Aug., Sept, Oct. When she kept texting or asking for shot records, ukc, rabies and chip info- you ghosted her.
Then have the gall to blame the puppy buyer, then slander and talk down about her. Thats why I am upset.
Seeing how you withhold crucial health information, risking the dogs health by over vaccinating and willing to forfeit her ukc points by "just get another pl number", formed my opinion that you do not care about the dogs at all. If she hadnt paid in full, she wouldnt have the dog. So on the flip side, if you didnt give her everything that comes with the dog by law (what you said was included) even her medications or food as stated, the transaction was not complete until you did.
But she has asked me to take this down, I think if you were to apologize I would. As quite a few things Sierra Combs is stating has come back to her. Even someone at a show asking about the transaction, when there are no catalogs to identify the dog. As they just had a bad one with you also.

As long as you get the money, in my opinion you dont care. I base my opinion on seeing a dog that was traumatized from being in your care for 10 months and my dealing with you. I wouldnt trust the recordkeeping, or getting any records for that matter. Even comparing the records that took 6 months to finally be sent. Only after a bad review. Not upon delivery when paid in full, or the 6 months in the owner asking for what she paid for. I am so glad your hurrying and altering the sales copy on the puppy I was buying made me turn away with cold feet. Plus, you almost guarantee the chinese crested puppies you offer for sale will have drop ears and what a shame. 5 mins a day to tape the ears UP, not yoda style out. So it does make me question all your breeds you sell: chinese cresteds, German Shorthaired Pointers (GSPs) and Hungarian Vizslas, Bracco Italiano and why so many movies on the youtube channel but for the cresteds only 2-4 pics.
Anyway, this was my experience and my opinion based on dealing with the Qilin Chinese Cresteds Facebook Page about the purchase of a female hairy hairless hhl chinese crested and akc chinese crested puppies for sale from the www.qilinchinesecresteds.com and Sierra Combs who said she owned www.NoSamkennels.com and my impression from a buyer. Marie Davis you claim everything I say is hearsay, but you werent the one in all this either. It was Sierra Combs who AKC says is not on Qilin but NoSam kennels but then after she puts in writing that she bought the hhl chinese crested female for HER son to show the previous year to show, that she had shipped by airplane from MT. Sierra Combs said she didnt have video of her son showing the akc CH, but provided the same public instagram picture that was on the Qilin Chinese Crested Facebook page that was supposed to be a representation she was experienced as a Jrs dog. That show picture was from August 9, 2024 of Sierra's son with the dog for sale. Sierra also she said tried to breed her in that 9 months and was unsuccessful. Sierra Combs said she was up to date on shots. Sierra claimed in several texts and Fb msgs she was up to date on shots, but rabies due soon. The day of the sale, I was shown a text where Sierra Combs from her phone, the same thats public on https://www.pupvine.com/chinese-crested-breeders/ that has the ol' "Ky plus Fl" locations to be able to charge shipping, but when asked in person Sierra said all the puppies were here like she didnt know why she was asked that imho. But its not in "Exie". is it? Did we get as advertised? Def pet producers. But will kill other cresteds, birds, cats, puppies, and agressive towards children. You know, a "Jrs dog" for sale.

" But there’s nothing mythical or unusual about Qilin Chinese Crested puppies. They’re simply great dogs with even better temperaments and equally good health.
What’s so great about Qilin Chinese Cresteds is that they have two locations, one in Kentucky and one in Florida. They’re all classified as pet-quality dogs, but I must add that they have superior quality for simple family pets.

As I was asked to remove these, if a written apology on paper was sent (with an explanation of why it took 6 months to close the transaction with the vaccination records finally, as AKC and UKC helped her get the papers and registration finalized, not you) and explains why you acted as irresponsible breeders by not providing the information as asked but ghosted her instead, I'd take down this. If you could explain why you treated puppy buyers this way?

Update by kitty wells

I wrote this agency to ask that my review be edited to the part that I was directly involved in as she can do her own review, right when I was going to purchase a "chocolate puppy" and send money, the verbage on the puppies ad changed. My nickname is Kitty. Any pictures used were from a business website and already public, even though youve removed them I have screenshots from Instagram etc. Any addresses mentioned were from a business or public entity.
Its ignorance of the internet, or if you use something publically ie business listing or business site, its freedom of information.
Stealing from personal, non business facebook pages to slander, harrass, or defame, buying photos to do the same or ridicule or basic ignorance in facts or making up your own rules or facts. I'm out.
If "no contact" is intiated for you to keep contacting is actually not legal.
To breed a dog that youre only claiming has had one shot in 4 years: irresponsible.
Many breeders start taping ears at 2 weeks, 8 weeks is way to late. From what Ive read.
And if 2 dogs are clear in testing and bred, the pups are clear. From genetics.
I did request that everything that I was not involved in, be removed.
I would suggest that anything not involving me, as I do not own, bought, or transferred anything: I attempted to buy a pup, you changed the wording. I tried again, thinking I jumped the gun, then you started defaming and slandered someone who was waiting for vet info, so I backed out again. Your daughter said you and her did the cresteds, so you two are in business or it was presented as such in writing. I am not in business with anyone.

Funny how stories change — good thing I keep records! As far as paperwork goes, everything was provided at the time of pickup. Once the dog leaves my care, it’s the new owner’s responsibility to submit or follow through with any registration transfers or documentation on their end. Along with updating vaccines — I can’t force anyone to send in transfers at a certain time.

One minute you’re the owner of the dog, and the next you’re claiming it’s a relative’s? Also, if you or your relative got the dog in April 2025, it hasn’t even been a year—especially since you just stated six months ago that you or your relative got the dog. Which is it? If it’s a relative’s dog, then you didn’t buy it yourself and are just spreading hearsay.

It’s not my job to teach anyone how to do an online transfer of AKC papers or read the UKC rules on TL numbers. A UKC Temporary Listing (TL) number is non-transferable; however, any performance achievements gained with a TL number can be transferred to a permanent registration or Performance Listing (PL) number once you apply for one. A UKC TL Number (Temporary Listing Number) is received almost instantly, within 10 minutes of applying online. The TL Number is delivered via email after you submit the online application and pay the $20 fee. Just to clarify, AKC does not require registration papers to participate in Junior Showmanship.

I do find it interesting, however, that six months later there are suddenly claims of paperwork being sent, yet there are no messages or proof indicating that this occurred at the time. According to your screenshot on another review, it shows that the records were transferred. How, then, did you suddenly obtain this information? Are there any photos or documentation showing where it was sent to you afterward?

A reminder that leaving reviews for businesses that were not involved in your transaction is not only unfair — it can also be considered defamatory or fraudulent. Reviews must reflect actual experiences with the business itself. Posting misleading or false information can violate both platform policies and the law.

Posting photos of a minor without consent is not acceptable. It’s a violation of privacy and, depending on the situation, can be illegal. Please take any such content down right away. A minor child’s hobbies or activities are private and do not concern anyone outside their family. Participation in those activities does not reflect on, or imply any choices or involvement from, a separate business entity.

To clarify, I had previously declined to place a puppy with full AKC registration with this individual (or a family member) because I was not comfortable entering into a co-ownership arrangement. It’s unfortunate that negative reviews appeared only after that decision. The timing speaks for itself.

If you assumed this post was just about you and showing versus breeding, that probably says more about you than than you’d like. You are not the only person that has asked. I am allowed to clarify my rules for my puppies. Those who don't like them can purchase a puppy elsewhere.

If you want your reviews to be taken seriously, it helps to use proper grammar next time.

Have the day you deserve.

Also, if we’re going to focus solely on money, let’s talk about how you or your family member are requesting $4,700 for a dog while claiming you only cared for it for six months After you were given info to transfer the dog in the parking lot and you have zero proof that they were withheld—other than your own failure to send them in. If you voluntarily took the dog and did not incur legitimate costs or have a contract specifying fees, demanding $4,700 could be extortion or unjust enrichment, not a lawful claim.

You are welcome to DNA test the dog with the AKC to confirm that it matches the parents on file for the dog— no one is stopping you. No dogs were ever swapped, and that’s a bold and unfounded accusation.

The minor showing the dog has zero involvement in any of this, and attempting to drag a child or their family’s business into this situation because they show a different breed is both inappropriate and disappointing and shows your true colors.

As stated previously, TL numbers are not transferable. Nothing was withheld — including AKC information. A FACT anyone can check with UKC themselves.

You (or the buyer) simply chose not to submit the paperwork until after being denied the purchase of a second dog.

Furthermore, if you are not the individual who purchased the dog, your statements are hearsay.
You, Kitty/Daphne Wells, have never done business with Qilin. You only inquired about purchasing a puppy, and I exercised my legal right to decline that sale. The very next day, you began posting reviews and involving unrelated businesses and a minor in an attempt to stir controversy.

It’s also true that none of you have ever done business with Nosam Kennels. That’s not an opinion — it’s a fact. Leaving a negative review about a business over something unrelated to an actual business transaction is false representation and misleading to the public.

So I guess that means I could go leave reviews on your business even though I’ve never used your services? That would be unethical, though — just because I think someone’s a lousy person doesn’t give me the right to post false reviews about their business.

It’s disappointing to see yet more false claims being circulated. No dog has ever been “sold as a different dog.” Facts speak louder than gossip.

The dog being accused of being “switched” is the exact same one brought to the show on October 26th, 2025 by the reviewer— the very same dog that was clearly advertised. You be the judge: I even purchased the show photos and compared them to the photos of the dog that was purchased. They match exactly. The woman in the photo is the original purchaser.

After placing one dog with this individual—a dog registered to a friend and shown by a minor—we decided we did not wish to work with them further and exercised our legal right not to sell them another dog. That decision immediately preceded the false accusations and negative reviews that began appearing online.

It should also be noted that this individual has repeatedly attempted to obtain multiple dogs using different names and accounts, apparently for a breeding operation that was undisclosed. During one attempted transaction, a FaceTime call confirmed that the person posing under a different name was, in fact, the same individual. These actions demonstrate clear misrepresentation and intent inconsistent with the disclosures made at the time of sale.

After these failed attempts to acquire additional dogs, this false narrative was constructed. That is precisely why we chose to disengage and decline any further business or contractual agreements with this person.

For context, this same individual has produced over 78 dogs under the name Sakkarra Chinese Cresteds—without completing the essential health tests required for responsible breeding, including PRA, PLL, patella, and heart screenings. Yet, they continue to attack breeders who actually follow proper health and registration protocols. Their behavior appears motivated by an intent to discredit competitors rather than any genuine welfare concern.

Purchasing a dog without disclosing participation in a breeding program or ownership of multiple dogs raises serious concerns about honesty and credibility. How can any subsequent claims be taken at face value?

Worse yet, this situation has escalated beyond this program. The same individual has now targeted another and involved a minor, who merely showed the dog in competition. That level of conduct is not only unethical but deeply inappropriate.

The facts are simple:

The dog in question is the same animal that was originally shown by a JR and sold.

The dog lived with multiple other dogs of different ages and sex, with the breeder, the original owner and while being shown by the minor without issues.

The buyer chose not to register the dog until after their attempts to purchase additional dogs were unsuccessful.

The dog was disclosed as sterile (unable to produce puppies) prior to sale.

When the buyer realized they could not use the dog for breeding, they became upset and began spreading false information to harm our reputation.

As for claims of neglect or abuse — no factual evidence supports them. The dog lived with other dogs, was shown by a minor, and previously resided in a home with children. Those who have worked directly with the breeder accused of abuse have consistently reported excellent care, training, and transparency. Their practices not only meet but exceed breed-club standards — standards the accuser has not demonstrated in their own operation.

Making defamatory claims of this nature shows a lack of understanding and raises serious questions about the accuser’s motives. These falsehoods not only damage reputations but have caused measurable harm and lost revenue. A Cease and Desist order has already been issued on behalf of the affected business.

Finally, regarding behavior concerns — the environment plays a significant role in a dog’s temperament and conduct. If any issues have arisen since the sale, that is likely a reflection of current conditions rather than the dog’s upbringing or care prior to leaving our home. None of the previous homes have ever reported such accusations. The dog lived with kids prior to her arrival to be shown.

Do you realize how inappropriate it is to look up someone’s home? That’s not curiosity — that’s stalking behavior. Looking up a person’s property information crosses a very clear line. It’s invasive, unnecessary, and flat-out creepy.

For the record, you were not the individual who purchased the dog, which means much of what you’ve stated is secondhand and speculative. That’s exactly what the term “hearsay” means. You are repeating stories told to you by someone else while presenting them as fact — and that’s both misleading and inappropriate. The buyer in question received what was agreed upon, including registration and records, all of which can be verified directly with the registry. You were never part of that transaction, and your repeated involvement only makes this appear personal rather than factual.

There’s absolutely no legitimate reason to dig into someone’s personal life like that. They know what property they own, and it has nothing to do with you or anyone else. What kind of home they live in is none of your business. Those remarks have no bearing on the topic and cross a clear line of decency. It’s invasive, and frankly, it speaks more about your intentions than ours.

And for the record, anyone who has actually been to their home can confirm it is definitely not a trailer and I'm pretty sure they know what their deed says. Maybe take a moment to reflect — this kind of obsession says a lot more about you than it does about them. Sounds like pure jealousy to me. Making false claims about someone’s home or property when you’ve never even been there clearly shows you’re not interested in facts — only in stirring up drama. It’s inappropriate, invasive, and completely uncalled for.

Just so it’s clear: ear taping is the buyer’s responsibility after purchase. Puppies’ ears can go up and down after moving to a new home or during teething — continued taping is often needed. When buyers follow our instructions the ears usually stand into adulthood; our adult dogs all have correct ear set and we have many photos of pups that matured correctly. If someone decided not to continue taping, that was their choice — not ours. Puppies tape has to be taken off to be bathed and like any good breeder puppies are bathed weekly and groomed and the tape is removed so the ears can breathe. Most good breeders also take photos of clean puppies. Also puppies ears are not able to be taped until they are 6-8 weeks of age so of course there would have photos of younger puppies without taped ears. I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make other than spreading falsehoods and grasping at straws to do even that. Anyone can look at the dozens of photos of past puppies and see that those who continued taping ears have puppies with standing ears.

I have nothing to apologize for, as I’ve done nothing wrong. I’ve been transparent and truthful from the start. Proof is in the pudding and its all posted here.

I sincerely hope that any breeders considering future collaborations with you take the time to look at the full context before selling you a puppy. The way certain information has been twisted and shared — including content involving a minor, not providing truthful details about other animals in your care, your intentions with purchase— has been deeply concerning. It’s important for everyone in this community to value honesty, professionalism, and respect in how they represent themselves and others.

Due to serious safety concerns regarding a minor — including the unauthorized sharing of their photos and slanderous statements — I have formally reported this matter to AKC and UKC. I trust these organizations will review the situation and take appropriate action. Your behavior in this matter is completely unsportsmanlike and unacceptable.

Additionally, it is not my responsibility to help someone register a dog. Information and guidance are available through the registry, which is why UKC and AKC have helplines — buyers are expected to read and follow the rules themselves.

PER AKC----The new owner's responsibilities
Complete the transfer by submitting the transfer to AKC--This can be done online.
Pay any required fees. The new owner is responsible for completing their section and submitting the form with the fee to the American Kennel Club, according to the AKC website.

PER UKC-- The dog owner is responsible for obtaining a Temporary Listing (TL) number, as they need it to enter their dog in certain events if it is not yet permanently registered with a kennel club like the United Kennel Club (UKC). The owner is responsible for ensuring all requirements are met with the relevant registry, which may include paying the fee and providing the necessary information. Even after obtaining a TL number, the owner is still responsible for pursuing permanent registration if they wish to make any wins or points permanent.

Here also are the dogs UKC points prior to transfer on the TL that was used for the Junior to show the dog to prove the dog was shown and DID earn points. So your comments that "there are no catalogs to identify the dog" OR that the dog was never actually shown are also flat out LIES. I also confirmed with UKC and have the email record showing the TL number that goes with these points prior to you Transferring the dog to a PL number.

Yes, I am fully aware you use multiple nicknames and have done so when trying to buy dogs under false pretenses. That is exactly why I did not move forward with selling you a puppy.

You also keep insisting that “Qilin” is in her name, which is false. It isn’t her business name, none of the dogs are in her name, and she never gave you her Gundog kennel name. You obtained that on your own because you found where her child showed the dog.

Having her son handle dogs for other breeders does not mean she breeds that breed. Junior handlers and professional handlers regularly show dogs for others—handling different breeds is how they gain experience. That is not a crime, and it doesn’t make your assumptions true.

And again: if you truly believed the dog was abused or mistreated, why did you never bring any of these claims up before you were denied a puppy? Not once in the past 7 months did you make a single complaint about the dog, its condition, or anything else. These accusations only started after we told you we would not be selling you a puppy or entering into any sort of co-ownership with you. The timing speaks for itself.

If the dog is “so aggressive,” then why did you enter it in a show, surrounded by dogs, handlers, families, and children? Why would you knowingly put others at risk if you actually believed your own claims?

And no—no one “misspelled addresses to hide things.” You most likely typed it incorrectly yourself, considering your consistent spelling and grammatical errors. No ads were changed, either, and you have absolutely no proof of that. You keep making accusations without anything to back them up, just like the rest of your claims.

The no-contact order was submitted on their behalf for their business, not mine. When you left a review about my kennel, I had every right to respond and defend myself against the things you were claiming.
