AKC Dog Breeders

I recently bought a pup whom I foolishly took home without the paperwork. I trusted Top Dogg Giant Schnauzers. 2 months later after asking I get the paperwork. To my surprise the AKC Litter Certificates says my pups parents AND the grandparents were brother and sister from same litter. Upon contacting AKC they said they do not have a policy on "inbreeding". They leave that up to the discretion of the breeders. Really! Doesn't that increase the chances of the pups from such a litter being genetic cesspools? Buy a pup from a breeder that has a "Genetic" and "Health" guarantee.

I purchased a purebred World class imported German Shepherd pedigree puppy from https://**/. I paid $3000 dollars in total. When I asked for my AKC papers, I was ignored. I have every email and phone records to show how many times I tried to contact them with no reply. I finally decided to write a review that angered the wife of Jeff **, I did not run down my puppy. I just stated there was very poor communication. That same night, I was sent 3 nasty emails and bashed, bullied and degraded online. Someone reported her and her page was removed.

I found Bel & Dean on the AKC website while searching for a Belgian Malinois and could not be happier with my experience. They have been warm and helpful at every stage of the process—from choosing my puppy to picking him up to continuing to be a resource for me after delivery. Bel checks in on us weekly to make sure my malinois is happy and healthy and even sends us update photos of his siblings. I will absolutely be working with them again in the future when I'm ready for a sibling for my young pup.

Working with Rose to find our furry, four-legged family member has been an absolute blessing! She is super friendly and helpful. I never would have imagined how overwhelming it could be to find the right frenchie for our family. Rose quickly put our worries and anxieties at ease with her vast knowledge, experience, as well as health guarantees. She is an amazing person who breeds amazing frenchies! I would highly recommend anyone interested in a French Bulldog to do themselves a favor and reach out to her.

Please don’t purchase a dog from Karen Lorenz owner of Companions From Heaven. I put a hefty deposit on a Maltese and the entire litter died. She would not refund my money! She said I could have a Bichon Frise from the next litter. I didn’t want a Bichon but agreed I would take a girl. All boys were born. She then called to say she wasn’t going to breed her 2 year old female Bichon anymore and thought that would be a good fit for us since she was trained. We agreed! When we went to pick her up, my instincts said, "No don’t take this dog" but I didn’t listen and took her anyway. Also she admitted that she left the Maltese litter in the sun too long and that’s why they died.

This guy is a fraud and a liar. This thief sold me two dogs with hips and elbow problems. I have been waiting for AKC for months and never got them. Don't buy from him. Don't do business with him. He is a fraud.

My family bought a Mini Wiener from this breeder. We got the wienie & then about 2 weeks into having her we noticed she was getting really skinny & sick so we took her to the vets. Turns out she has a mega esophagus, so we literally have to give her medication twice a day & feed her in a doggy high chair 3 times a day. We contacted the breeder asking for our money back, since we were sold a literal special needs dog & the vet bills have been a lot, but the breeder won’t give the money back unless we give the dog back. But if we give the dog back the breeder is going to kill it to get rid of any evidence that she’s breeding dogs together that she shouldn’t be breeding to cause this problem. Whenever originally emailed about it, the breeder’s response sounded like this wasn’t the first time it happened, & she even called the dog a faulty product.

My husband and I recently purchased a Neapolitan mastiff from Paul and Joyce **. We were very skeptical about purchasing a puppy that was over 8 hrs away and having it shipped. So many scammers these days! After a little research and a phone call we were on our way! Paul and Joyce answered any and all questions we had. We are new to the breed. They assured us of their shipping method which was nothing short of professional! The first time we spoke was a Thurs evening. We received our puppy late Monday night. They text us to keep us updated every day! Sometimes 2 or 3 times a day with pictures! We received a happy, healthy, well socialized and clearly in the process of training 13 week old male! We couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend!

PLEASE READ MYKA's STORY. Myka's story, this note is especially important to people looking for a reputable Shih Tzu breeder. Our research lead us to contact a Shih Tzu breeder in Stony Plain, Alberta Canada and on November 16, 2019 I flew to Edmonton, Alberta – close to Stony Plain – to purchase my lovely sweet 2 ½ months old Myka from “My Dream Shih Tzu” breeder Pam **. Almost a year later Myka became extremely ill and was diagnosed with a congenital liver disease, requiring urgent and life-threatening major surgery. I rushed her to the specialty veterinary hospital in Vancouver and Myka survived the surgery although even now she still suffers from medical issues.

I purchased a puppy from Darlena and Carlos **. Advertisement via AKC advertised purebred Cane Corso puppies for sale 2500. The AKC website also states comes with ICCF, AKC, Pedigree papers. I asked was the puppy mixed due to her stripe in the center of the puppy face. That marking is most common on pitbulls. I was assured the puppy I purchased was a full bred Cane Corso. I performed a DNA test on the puppy and the results came back mixed breed. Cane Corso, Mastiff, pit, Rottweiler. I reached out to the breeder. I explained the results. The breeder asked for me to email DNA. I would also like to say the DNA showed 13% inbreeding. Anything over 10% could cause health problems. It could also cause defects to the offspring.
