Another update! I was telling my friend that our pups are likely NOT purebreds(this breeder aka puppy mill would not provide us the pedigree papers, despite each of us paying over $700 EACH for our puppies), his niece made a statement that ours are likely part corgi. I'm not surprised. My dog has wider than normal body structure. It's too bad that puppy mills are able to get by with any of this stuff, mostly, though, treating dogs like crap, just to get money. This breeders also has a large chest freezer inside the front door that, after I thought about it, may be for their "business". They didn't feed our pups meat, just a cheap dog food. I'm guessing that huge freezer was for "other" purposes. Gross. If you can't sell the puppies, rid yourself of them. There's a special place in hell for this kind of breeder.
Just an update, if you are looking to buy a dog and you cannot travel to where the dog is being raised, PLEASE contact the ASPCA or animal shelters in the area to verify whether it's a puppy mill or not, BEFORE you buy. I've had people write to me about their experiences with this place, and at least one had their "pure bred pup" genetically tested only to find out it is NOT a pure bred. Theirs got twice the size it should have been, as did mine, not fat, just much larger than the pure bred size. Again, ADOPT, DON'T SHOP!! read more
