Breeders Association Of America
Sell sick dogs from puppy mills!

We purchased a puppy from the Breeder's Association of America on January
29. The owner and salesperson at the store guaranteed that the dog
was from a reputable breeder and the price initially started at $3,000.
They eventually chased us out the door, dropping the price to $800. We went through a financingcompany to pay for the dog as well as owed the store $299.00.

We took the dog to a vet suggested by the Breeder's Association on Feb. 6
and tests came back the dog has Tracheo bronchitis. She also became sick
with a parasite several weeks later and needed more medication (Feb 20).
Our vet wrote us a letter that the dog was unfit for sale (we were also
told the dog was seen by a vet the day we picked her up). He also
suggested that we find out which breeder the Breeder's Association went
to.

We took the vet bills to the pet store and they said we couldn't be
reimbured until we paid the balance. She also said she couldn't tell us
where the dog came from because again we still owed them money. We paid
the balance and they gave me a copy of our contract which had the last
name of the Breeder as well as the name of a Kennel. They told us we
couldn't get any more information on where the dog came from "because
there is a law that protects the breeder's privacy." I am unable to find
such a law.

Upon researching the Kennel, Oleo Acres in IA, we discovered the USDA has
previously charged them for violating the Animal Welfare Act with over 15
violations. We have been unable to locate the breeder in the town they
gave us. However, there are breeders listed with that last name in IA who
sold dogs to puppy mills.

These people are truly sick. The store needs to be shut down!!
