 Dated March 19th., 2016 Paula Collins, Tango Haus Poodles,, now that you have cashed my second check and should stop threatening to sue me(including having your attorney contact me) let me tell you again what I received from you in exchange for the $6500 that I paid you. (plus the cost of transporting all of these dogs from Texas to Colorado, about $1000) I paid for 5 breeding dogs. As you put it, it was a "package deal". What I expected to get were two breedable miniature poodle females -- one pregnant. A 10 year-old stud dog miniature poodle male. An 8 year-old stud dog toy male. And the one I REALLY wanted, an 8 month -old breedable Biewer Yorkshire terrier stud. What I received was one mini poodle female NOT pregnant. One mini poodle female ALSO not pregnant and so unsocialized that she is scared to death of people and it takes two people to corner her and catch her for any work to be done. (you were honest about this dog and did tell me that you had not socialized her and she was afraid of people). The 8 year-old toy poodle's mouth was rotting. His jaw required $1800 worth of work to repair the gaping holes in his mouth, bone loss and infection. The vet said he would have been dead in two months or sooner. The 10 year-old stud is completely sterile. He has one shriveled t******e and the other is not (and never will) produce. This is according to the Board Certified Reproduction Specialist and professor of reproduction Dr. Richard Wheeler at the Colorado State Veterinary Teaching Hospital. This dog, Hans, also has teeth rotting out of his mouth. Now, you did take this dog back as I told you his mouth was going to cost me even more than Rusty's mouth had cost and I was going to have to put him down. What else can I do with a sterile stud dog who at ten years of age has never been in a house in his life and can not be housebroken and placed in an adoptive home? So, yes, you did take him back but threatened to sue me if I didn't pay for his trip back to you. So now we can add $400 to my total making it $6900 + transportation to get them here that I paid for all of these dogs. Then there is the Biewer "stud". Dr. Wheeler (along with another vet who just happened to be here at the time) stated that this dog has only one t******e, the other can't be found and he also has severely crooked teeth and no one should consider breeding this dog. So, Paula, since you guarantee your dogs (which I find hard to believe as you flat out told me you do no genetic testing , which I did not know when I bought them).... What are you going to do about this? I have some ideas as to how you can make this right but I will wait and see what you have to say. Paula, I am very sorry that you are going through financial difficulties. But as you know, I have been fighting cancer since December of 2014. I DO know about difficulties. I will give you several days to respond to this as I know you are in trouble. However, your trouble should not be my trouble. And, I really resent being called names and being threatened with lawsuits when all I want is to be treated fairly. I will take action if you ignore me or refuse to make this right. Sincerely, Terry Dated March 25th, 2016 Paula, I have given you several days to come up with a plan to honor your guarantees on the purchases of the 5 breeding dogs I got from you. I feel that you are ignoring me. I'm hoping you will get back to me soon as to how you will make this right. If not, I'm afraid I will have to take action that I do not want to take. You have threatened to sue me for not wanting to give you the rest of the money I owed you. I have paid you and you have cashed the check, even though I did not get what I was promised. I owe you nothing. I paid for 5 breedable dogs and one pregnant dog. I got two breedable dogs, neither is pregnant. I got a completely sterile male. I got another male whose mouth and jaw was rotting from neglect so badly that the vet said he would be dead in two months had we not poured over $1800 into him to save him. And we got a cryptorchid male with severely crooked teeth. This is what I got for $6500 and an additional $1200 to get them from Texas to Colorado. I trusted you. I trusted that you would not take advantage of someone who was in the midst of cancer treatment and had little money and resources. You took advantage of that and when I objected the the condition of the dogs you threatened to sue me unless I paid in full. Your attorney contacted me and backed you up. I now wish you HAD sued me. I would LOVE to let the whole world know what kind of breeder, no -- what kind of PERSON you are. I'm hoping that the other people that you have scammed, and I know of at least one other, can also get the word out And, by the way. All of your talk about using pictures that don't belong to the person using them? I guess that doesn't apply to you? And the pictures you have of Robbie (my dog) taken by me at my ranch are not for you to use. Take them from your web sites immediately. I do not want one of my dogs associated in any way with someone like you. And your statement on your sites that anyone selling adult dogs on your sites must have genetic clearance is another thing that doesn't apply to you? Since you told me you don't do testing on any of your dogs I guess that explains why two of the dogs that I bought from you previously are cryptorchid and one had severely slipping stifles. You claimed my board certified reproductive specialist vet "must be mistaken". Yeah right. You are a con artist and should be ashamed of yourself. You have forced me into action Paula. You have no one to blame but yourself. Sue away, I'm VERY happy to tell my story. Terry

Terry Jester is a liar and a fraud!

AUTHOR: Paula - (USA)

POSTED: Monday, May 09, 2016

 

I knew Terry Jester to be an honest and upright breeder for many years and actually placed a few of my Poodles with her for breeding purposes over a span of about 15 years.  I knew nothing about her abuse of animals or her fraudulent purposes until she wanted to purchase five of my Poodles after I lost my husband and had to reduce my babies to be able to care for them properly. 

 

I have never been large breeder and after I lost my George and had to have double knee surgery, I knew I had to reduce some of my Miniature Poodles because they were larger and it was almost impossible to keep them trained and shown as I had done for so many years. 

Terry Jester wanted all of my babies and so I made her a good price for them and accepted half down and the rest to be paid within three months of her coming and taking them to her kennel in Colorado.  I decided to place two three year old proven Miniature Poodle females, one older retired Red Tiny Toy Champion line male Poodle and one little Tiny Biewer male that I had kept for show out of my Gold Cup female and Int/Nat Ch male, but German Imports and many, many times Champions.  I also let her have an older male that I had retired the previous year as he had just produced a litter of Tri-Color Miniature Poodle babies.  I did not charge her for that male. 

She drove down and stayed over night and took the babies home the next morning to Colorado and paid me half of what she owed me.  I got several replys from her stating how well they were doing and that she had let my old boy stay with one of the three year old females and that they were all doing well together.  When it came time for her to pay me the rest of the money she started ignoring me and then when I became insistant she started stating lies about my dogs and my kennel.  I contacted my attorney and he got in touch with me and on the day I had given her as the last day before I filed suit against her, she finally paid the amount that she owed me, less $500.00 that I had her keep because she was threatening to kill my old male that I had given her and I paid for her to send him back to me.   I had to go a whole weekend not knowing if she had kill my wonderful Hans or not and it almost destroyed me not knowing! 

This person was a normal human being for most of the time I had known her, but now she is evidently completely psychotic!  She has been stripped of her Halo Project in Colorado as she was found to be using this ruse in a fraudulent manner stating to place animals with service dogs with wounded servicemen and women!!  She has also been found to be a puppy mill and I did not find out about any of this until it was too late and she already had my babies!!!  She even called and made a false report about me to the SPCA in Texas and they came out and have filed a fraudulent reporting charge against her.  I am posting pictures here of what my poor Hans looked like when I managed to get him returned to me by her and the horribly small crate that he had to endure a 14 hour process in just to be returned to me. 

I am now in the process of suing her for slander and did not know about this report until tonight at 10:30 PM when I was awakened by a person wanting to know if this report was true!!!  THIS REPORT IS A TOTAL FALSE FRAUDULENT REPORT AND WILL BE ADDED TO THE FILE THAT MY ATTORNEY HAS ALREADY FILED AGAINST HER!!!

I am also enclosing the file about her abuse of dogs and the removal of her authority to use the Halo Project in her advertising because she was running a fraudulet program and ripping off wounded soldiers returning from war!!!

Terry Jester Rocky Mountain Rawhide dog breeder, Halo Project Dog breeder who claims to donate service dogs to soldiers as a cover up to be a puppy mill and sell dogs. Wellington Colorado
