i adopted retired breeding mini Bernedoodle "Charlotte" from Mt. Rainier Doodle Dogs - description…read moremismatch, neglect, bait-and-switch return policy I sought a low-maintenance mini Bernedoodle and found Mt. Rainier Doodle Dogs. They offered retiring breeder Charlotte (mother of two litters; third attempt failed) for $1,000 to cover her spay/final vet visit. They described her as very low-energy, preferring to lay in bed all day, uninterested in toys/play, happy just near her person. At home, Charlotte initially ignored toys/balls - no clue how to engage. It took months of consistent work (including paid professional training for me, despite my disabilities) to teach her ball-chasing, retrieving, hurdles, and weaves. She now loves high-energy play and running anytime - opposite of described, more than I bargained for given my limitations. When foot pain worsened severely (walks painful), I raised return for her welfare. They'd repeatedly said "take her back anytime," but suddenly reversed: current proprietor said they couldn't anymore unless within next few days (puppies coming, can't handle). She then sicced the former owner (her mother) on me for a defensive/obnoxious call - vaguely blaming/guilting ("I'll drive up to pick her up because I love her"). Utterly rude and unprofessional. I've adored Charlotte from day one with total commitment to her welfare/happiness, so I kept her. Thrilled with Charlotte (always have been), but breeders neglected socialization/play (not abuse, laissez-faire breeding), charged me for spay after ~$50-60K profit, and reneged on return promise. Their responsibility should include spaying retirees. Demand proof of energy/training history and firm return terms. Won't adopt from them again. Don't get me wrong. Charlotte is totally charming and adorable and such a good girl....but i had to work really hard to engage her in enrichment activities, which had been sorely neglected in her life with the breeder. So i know they loved her, but did not give her enough attention, since they were paying attention to their new puppies. I'm sure they do a fine job with puppies. But shouldn't they also care for their puppy moms? Also it appears unethical for them to charge me so much for a vet visit and spay, which should have been their responsibility.

If I could give them zero stars, I would. We got a wonderful charcoal lab from Circle B in 2016…read morewhen they were a smaller breeder. We decided to get another lab puppy from them in 2020. We put money down on a litter to pick a female puppy that was born in January 2021. We had first pick of our female puppy out of the two females from the litter. We went to pick her up when she was ready to big enough to leave, the other female puppy had already been picked up. A couple of months later, we discovered by looking at pictures, they had given us the wrong puppy, the puppy we did not pick and did not want because she was too hyper. How does that happen when there are only two females in the litter. We did not say anything for a while, because we knew that we had to keep this puppy now, because the other one was gone. When I finally sent a letter to Cassandra, the owner letting her know how upset we were, I never heard a word, nothing acknowledging the mistake or an apology even. We just took our dog, who was now 4 in January to the vet, and she has to see a specialist because the vet thinks she has retinol neuropathy. When you pay a breeder that much for the dog, they should make sure you get the dog you picked and do sufficient testing to rule out potentially serious genetic defects. I will never buy another dog from Circle B and I certainly will never recommend them to anyone I know. Horrible!

I actually found it really affordable to take Alaska Air out and Delta back the same day to pick up my pup. Lisa has been a great mentor and is always available for questions. We really feel like a big family as she maintains a Meadow Run Family Facebook group so we can all chat with each other, ask questions, bounce ideas off of each other based on our experiences, and cheer each other on. I own Vinnie, who has shown in conformation and competed in Rally and will start In agility. Lisa is there for it all and keeps up with her puppies activities. This is all in addition to how she starts her puppies ENS, desensitizing activities, a lot of human activities (she shares a lot of live videos of puppy activities, play, cleaning, grooming etc!)

We own a beautiful German Shepard and decided that she needed a little brother and having…read moresuccessfully utilized CL for 15 years to buy and sell thought I would start there. I was hoping to get lucky and locate another wonderful GSD. There are several great local real serious GSD breeders (Von Waldberg for one) but we did not have the budget. So after a very disappointing few days searching through the disappearing, price changing, dubious pedigree, available but suddenly sold, wait for husband to get off work at 4 turning into wife off at 5, vaccinations with no vet records, parents on site but too aggressive to see and other scam dogs...we gave up. FOLKS BE VERY CAREFUL BUYING ANY DOGS ON CRAIGSLIST! Dog craze was at a fever pitch in our the family by now. I started looking for GSD real breeders on line and found several. One that looked good was Majestic Royal German Shepards in Puyallup. When I called the owner was very knowledgeable nice and sincerely listened. From a budget point of view I asked if she might have any " pet quality " pure bred GSDs that did not have to have AKC as we were not going breed or show. She did not at present but said she would ask around her freinds and other breeders (nice touch). Then told me of a freind that had a 7 week old female puppy with "special needs" that she was offering in turn for a good home. Enter Amanda Her little puppy had a condition called mega esophagus which means that the dog has to be seated vertically to be fed soft food and there is always a danger of aspiration pneumonia. After some research they may grow out of it however there is no surgical repair possible and no medication. We pondered and talked about it but felt even as very experienced dog people it would be more than we could handle. Reading between the lines Amanda had been caring for this puppy when most breeders would have put it down. Amanda was a dog lover with a tender heart not just someone in the dog business...cudos. Good sign folks. We declined sadly and were offered a male 10 weeks old and female 7 weeks old that she had that were ready. So Sunday evening my wife son and I headed for Graham...a day and a half drive dropping bread crumbs all the way so we could find our way back to Newcastle (just kidding). We were greeted by a gang of beautiful German Shepards different sizes coats and colors playing in a fenced turn out next to three kids jumping in a trampoline...choices kids another good sign. Amanda approached and escorted us into her compound complete with pigs chickens guinea hens calfs goats a horse and lots of GSDs and puppies all healthy clean thriving and smiling...more good sings. She brought out the male puppy that we had come to see and besides being handsome the little guy was not skiddish (always check) at all or shy and seemed very well adjusted curious clean shiny bright eyes and very cuddly. She then brought out the mother (father owned by Amanda's mother who lives close by) who was beautiful freindly and interacted with her puppy well although not nursing any longer. The puppy played well with mom and the pigs and played "stick" and ball and a little fetch...good sign again! We asked to see the all black female and one of her helpers brought her out and she was in the same condition and behaved in a similar fashion...tough choice. When asked if she had any other ready pups that we should see the helper quickly produced another female same condition in a beautiful sable color...way tough choice now. The three of us held cuddled and played with the three of them for an hour or more. I asked Amanda if she was anxious to find a home for one over the others and she quickly responded that she wanted us to make the right choice and be happy...wow. Now folks this was Sunday evening about dinner time with her two children going back to school after their spring break in the morning and their was no rush by Amanda for us to make our choice...nice customer service. BTW...she found a great home for her little health challenged baby with a local vet tech with children...angels I guess We chose the Black and Tan male with first shots AKC registry chipped with a health quarantee. Her assistant quickly chipped our new pup readied our paperwork efficiently and got us on our way. We excitedly raced home (following the crumbs) holding our new little boy while having a very animated chatter about what we had just experienced. Folks customer service is rare if not missing all together these days but let me tell you that Amanda at Von Tore K9 and her freinds family her GSDs puppies pig pigs and the rest of her menagerie have this down to a science. BTW...had him checked out at our vet with and received a glowing bill of health...not surprised.
