Thought I was purchasing two beautiful toy shar-pei puppies, but what a surprise I got. One is a mix breed, and the other has to be put down.

These are not the dogs I purchased. Contacted the vet that signed the Health Certificate and sent him photo's he advised that these were not the dogs he saw, so they are taking different dogs in for health clearance and shipping the sick dogs out. I get NO phone calls returned. PLEASE DONT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU.

The beautiful pictures on puppy find are not what you will receive.

Below are pictures of the female, the 8 week old puppy with the pink roses was the one I was to get, the picture is what I received. The last picture is the male I received.

Monetary Loss: $2146.

Location: Memphis, Tennessee

The same exact thing happened to us. We drove 8 hours to get "Pink Lilac" from these people and it wasn't even the correct puppy.

My mother still took the puppy and sadly it had worms. The puppy died within two hours of getting home.

They will not return our calls. They are nothing but scammers.

I want you know that I also got took just 2 weeks ago and they are slick as can be. We bought a red doberman and of course the registration was falsified and was the registration of a sharpia.

If we can, I have a freind that is a bounty hunter and is a retired federal Marshall and he is on they trail and I personally am applying for a court order to get their recent address from puppy find. If I find they are in connection with this scam ,then they will also be proscuted.

I recently purchased a puppy from these people... They are now going by Frank and sophia randall.

He introduced her as his sister. When we got our poor lil girl home she was passing worms 12 to 18 inch long. When we brought her to our vet, he said it was worst case of roundworms he had seen.

Also puppy had colitis and an upper respiratory infection. Also gave us and papers that don't even have a registration number.

THey have changed their number to 901-468-****. Also in memphis, TN.

I was told by another breeder that its the Doyle's again. offering a lifetime warranty on their puppies. They almost got me. I just wanted to put that out there.

They have puppies listed in puppyfind.com under serious inquires only. BEWARE!!!

Next time, find a sharpei rescue or search petfinder.com for a specific breed. This is the way breeders are, take your money and keep pumping out a product (the dogs) and can careless about anything else other than profits.

Dog breeders unsure shelters stay full and healthy, viable dogs die. The shelters are not full from magic, it's breeders selling their dogs, owners later dumping them in the shelter. For every dog that's bought from a breeder, it means one in a shelter waiting for a home didn't find one and was put down. When we kill roughly 5million dogs annually, it's safe to say, people can stop breeding.

Those buying from breeders need to be educated on this. I've been rescuing for years, those are the best dogs I've ever had. They all have been purebreds, too. They're all I ever see in shelters anymore.

Sorry for your situation, please rescue next time. It will be cheaper, the dog will of seen a vet and no switcharoo.

Guest

They are back on puppyfind under Serious Inquiries only so dogs as low as $400.

Can someone please contact me. I want to see if there is anything I can do to help I too met these people to buy the little puppy in the picture.

It was a horrible experience. I just want them to be caught. I contacted the police and animal control. The puppy they met me with had a broken leg and tail.

On the paw pads you could tell it had been kept in a wire cage. We did not buy the puppy but I do wish that I would've taken her away from them. We had drove 7hrs to get her and then had to drive back empty handed.

I just want all the dogs they raise to be free. shannon.jauregui@***.com

A little good news, as of today, they have no puppies listed on puppy find.

Guest

This dog is still on puppy find sight, her birthdate has changed 3 times just since sept. I have contacted puppy find twice, but they seem unwilling to help. Brian ASHFORD dropped his last name from sight now known as Brian aka Santa's Little Helper, more like satan's helper.

Guest

If you don't mind me asking the sick one with no hair is it the one you had to put down what is wrong with it..

If someone wants to have a Chinese Shar-Pei the first place to look is the breeders directory of the Chinese Shar-Pei club of America (www.cspca.com). Ask for references from people who are members if the CSPCA and follow-up with those references.

Verify their membership with the CSPCA secretary. A reputable breeder will help you find another reputable breeder if s/he has no puppies available. Ask for veterinarian references and follow-up. DO NOT buy from pictures on the internet!!!!!!

If you cannot travel to pick up the puppy personally, find someone who can see and feel the dogs and take it to a vet for a health assessment. There are too many unscrupulous puppy producers out there. Be vigilant and wait for the best puppy from the best breeder. It will save a lot of heartache.

Why do these dogs look like they are at a shelter? Scared, trying to hide from you, on paper?

Puppys need to be around new sights and smells. Trust me im a dog trainer and i can read the body language and the first pic of the dog in the corner is scared to death of you.

Guest

THE PICTURE OF THE BLUE PUPPY WITH THE PINK ROSES IS STILL ADVERTISED ON PUPPY FIND TODAY FOR $1000. HOUSE OF ASHFORD JUST WAITING TO REEL IN ANOTHER SUCKER.

THESE PEOPLE MUST BE STOPPED! THIS IS REALLY HORRIBLE I HOPE THEY BOTH ROT IN *** FOR WHAT THEY ARE DOING WITH THESE PUPPIES!!!!!
