Complaint / Review
B&B Ranch Bill Bartmann
On puppyfind.com agreed to send me a Pug Puppy has been VERY difficult to contact and flight reservations are not turning up on record at airlines! I am being scammed!

Bill Bartmann advertised on puppyfind.com a pug puppy by the name of "Walker". Being the Christman season, many of the puppies I wanted were already sold when coming into contact with them and so when I received an e-mail stating "Walker" was available, I jumped on it! Little did I know what hassles Bill would soon bring me.

The payment transaction went quickly and smoothly. Then it began to be harder and harder for me to come in contact with Bill.

When I e-mailed Bill to ask about the shipping update of "Walker" my e-mails (to [email protected]) came back undeliverable. He was now using a different email: [email protected].

I kept calling to see when "Walker" would be being shipped and he continued to be floosy with his answers saying "the info in my home computer" and another time claiming the info was at his office computer. I was quite suspicious, but with the holidays around, and my sympathetic nature, I did not wish to hound him on Christmas Eve or Day.

A couple days later, I finally got a flight date, time, confirmation and flight number. When I called American Airlines to track and confirm "Walker"'s flight details, they had no record of the confirmation number and when I pressed to the airlines to search for the puppy they could find no record of a puppy being shipped to my airport under my last name.

When I phoned Bill he claimed the info was not on his personal computer but that he would telephone in the morning. This struck me as odd b/c on a previous conversation he asked me to call him after business hours because the info was at home.

That is when I REALLY got suspicious and started researching the now deleted www.puppies4sale.org and Bill Bartmann. After finding many reports of ripoffs and sick puppies I am terrified I am also victim! Needless to say I am still praying my pup will arrive soon and healthy, but am prepared for an unfortunate outcome...

I will report the outcome and warn anyone looking to buy a pup, DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH BILL BARTMANN.

And for all of you who have been misfortuned because of this con-artist, I am deeply sorry...
