In September I put a deposit on a puppy from The Road House Dobermans, www.theroadhousedobes.com. The owners of said business are Joe and Diane Sabol. After speaking with them I assumed everything was on the up and up. Last week, the week of the 25th, Joe emailed me and told me that his Dam, Autumn, had a false pregnancy. I told Joe I was very sorry to hear that. He said she will be re-breading in three months. Right then a red flag went up. I told Joe that I was going to need my money back and he told me that this couldn't be done. I asked him again and got the same answer. I paid $900 for the puppy plus and extra $520 for ear cropping which puts me at a monetary loss of $1420. What's more appalling is that he intends on breeding Autumn again so soon despite the risks to her health.
I have tried to be civil with Joe and Diane but to no avail. The pretty much told me in no uncertain terms that if I wanted my money back I would have to sue.
