I wouls like to make people aware of this company and the many people that are doing business with it. I purchased a female puppy for the "bargin" price of $2200.00 this summer. I believe she was on sale because she may have been an older pup. I paid the extra $89.00 to have her microchipped as well. When I received her -
I too picked her up at the airport and she was in her little kennel. She seemed shy and withdrawn - but understandably so. She had a long flight and was quite thristy. I took her to the vet as instructed and other than a bad yeast infection in her ears (which as I have read is common in other puppies from The Bulldog Exchange - I wonder why???) she appeared healthy. They did say she did not look to be a miniature - she looked more normal sized. I was disappointed because of course I felt I paid more for a miniature bulldog. I had them check to see if her chip was installed - because I still have not received those paper, and yes Patsy, had her chip. Then a few days later my little girl started getting spots all over her - she had ringworm & bad. I took her back to the vet again, she was place on an oral antibodic, a special shampoo and on over the counter cream. It took a month to cure. I contacted Stacey regarding this and reminded her about the chip and that I need it for the number so I could register her. I asked if I could call the Florida Vet - she said NOO, I could not. Only she could get the info. So I waited. I tried 2X more to get the info from Stacey and I finally called the Florida vet - and they said that they did see my dog K1S F3 the code I had on my paper however - they never microchipped the puppy. I said, my vet checked her and said she is chipped. Guess what they said - they owner may have done it. I asked the Florida vet if they could do that - and the vet assistance said well, if they have a qualified person on staff there - then yeah.
People I think it is extremely unethical of a dog breeder to be microchipping their own puppies - and then I find it really odd when they don't want to produce the paperwork necessary for the new owners to register their dogs. I think we need to have them invesitigated. Where did my Patsy's chip come from??? I have been after them for almost 2 months for the paperwork. Those chips have to be inserted into the muscle, not under the skin.
To top things off Patsy was just diagnoised with roundworms. She defecated live, large brown, worms all over. I had to take her to the vet again. He said it was because she wasn't properly wormed as a puppy. If these people breed dogs as a business - then worming puppies at an early age should be common knowledge. This was the most disgusting thing I ever saw. It was no wonder my the little girl was always starving. I am sure that the ringworm, the yeast in the ears were caused by the conditions in where she came from.
As to date, I have still not received Patsy microchip information. I am hoping that this is read by Evan himself and he takes action and sends proper paperwork to me. He has my address. I know i will be addressing this further - with the appropriate people.
