Dishonest dog breeder! Alert!

I should have known better! I purchased a Labradoodle from this place. They were so nice on the phone and their website looked good - so I let them "deliver" my puppy, since it was 100 miles away and they "just happened" to be coming my way, so I didn't get the pleasure of seeing their facility. This puppy was 4 months old when I bought her, which should have thrown up a red flag, but they convinced me the reason they still had her was that they were planning to keep her, but had changed their minds. She was a beautiful puppy, but nasty and her hair matted when I met them. She was very shy and timid, very unfriendly - which I was told was natural for the breed to be this way when in a strange place. I paid $500 for the dog. They "forgot" to bring her vet papers, so I had no idea what shots she had - now I'v sure she hadn't had any! I took her to my vet the next day and they started over with shots as if she had never had any. They also found an umbilical hernia, that had to be repaired, although I had been told that she had been to the vet and checked out perfectly. I had the hernia repaired and sent Ms. Lucille an e-mail, telling her I felt like they should pay for the surgery or at least a portion of it. She agreed that they would send me a check. Before I bought the puppy, I discussed with them that I have 7 granchildren and I needed a "kid friendly" dog - this dog was not friendly with anyone... Period. She growled, bit one man and snapped at the grandchildren. She is now 16 months old and last week, I surrendered her to the Humane Society - She definitely has mental issues. I had her to two dog trainers and a pet psycho-therapist. I have not been able to reach Ms. Lucille since the day she said she would send the money for the surgery - won't return calls or answer e-mails. After having this dog for 12 months - I still could not catch her without hemming her into a corner, she never allowed me to pet her! I recommend that anyone wanting a dog - go some other direction!!!
