We saw an ad for a "tiny toy" papillon at a local newspaper priced between $500-$950.
This is an appointment only puppy store so we made an appt to see the puppy.
When we get there they have the papillon out running around, this "Tiny Toy" puppie was 5 month old and is almost 6 lbs priced at $1500.
We told them that he was too big and that we were looking for a tiny papillon, he (James AKA jim) tells us that he has a few more papillon's in the back but they are priced higher because they are teacup papillon's. He then brought out 4 more papillons out for us to see.
They were smaller than the first one but were only 2-4 months old and he priced them at over $2,000.00.
We then chose the smallest papillon out of the 4 and Jim then tells us that she will not succeed 3 pounds.
We got on the website there at the kennel and found for ourselves that this perticular dog was only 2 months today.
So then we signed the contract for the dog and we had previously discussed and agreed on the price of $1,500.00 "out the door". So then after 10 minutes into paper work Bruce is adding $50.00 fee for a microchip and $90.00 tax and we were not aware that "out the door" at $1,500.00 "out the door" meant $140.00 more in fees. Bruce says to me your going to let $140.00 get in the way of this precious baby.
We told Jim that this didn't seem like a liget way to do business and he then tells us not to be rude but he does business with Kelly Osbourne and Aerosmith thats the way he does business. He was not being very business like then at all more of a rude, cocky, arrogant jerk. At this time we decided to take our business elsewhere.
As we are handing the dog back to Bruce he is asking why we were leaving and that we had his number to give him a call and he would work with us after Jim had said bottom line "out the door" price was $1,500.00.
To make things even worse after this horrible experience we recieve a call about 25 minutes after leaving the store saying there was a transaction being made over $1,000.00 and the bank was just verifying this transaction, thank god!
All and all i know our experience was not as bad as these who have lost their dogs because of these unhumane people who obviously have no heart or soul to sell a sick dog or to scam people out of thousands of dollars. I would just like people to know what kind of experience we had and i would not recommend my worse enemy to these sick people!
Buyer beware
