I was referred to Sandar Goldens after receiving a positive review from a coworker.  After contacting Jennifer Arn about adopting a puppy, I was informed about 2 upcoming dates for litters to be sold.  I made an appointment to take the 5 hour drive to pick up the puppy on a Friday.  

Jennifer told me to mail a $100 deposit to secure a puppy in the litter.  I immediately mailed it and received an email 2 weeks later that stated it hadn't been received.  I emailed her a digital copy of the cashed and SIGNED check and she claimed to have not signed it.  She told me something about having it stolen from her mailbox.  

My bank told me I needed to have Jennifer sign and notarize an affidavit stating she wasn't the one to sign the check.  I mailed her the affidavit and asked her to mail it back in immediately.  Jennifer gave me a bank account number and told me to re-send another $100.  I told her I would NOT send one and that I will hand her the puppy money ($100 less) when I come to pick up the dog.  I informed her that once I received the $100, I would pay her the remaining balance.  She agreed.  

All of a sudden, I was not getting emails back for a week or so at a time.  Then she tells me that she may not have any puppies on the date I had made an appointment for.  Now, all of a sudden, she may not be having any more available puppies for another month.  I emailed her 3 days before the anticipated appointment to verify she had some and she didn't message me back until THE DAY OF the appointment.  Needless to say, we didn't make the drive.  I bought a different puppy from another person.  

I told Jennifer we went with another puppy and would appreciate her mailing off the affidavit asap.  Fast forward to one month later...I email her AGAIN to ask if she had sent the affidavit.  She tells me the she had the flu for 4 weeks and couldn't make it to town.  Three weeks later, I email her again to ask if she mailed it.  She tells me (4 days later) that she mailed it but complained that it cost her $11!!  I was appalled!  Nevermind the fact that I was out $100 because of her!  

In an email she just responded to me with, she said "s**t happens" in response to the check getting cashed by someone else besides her.  Then she threatened to sue me for suggesting that she was the one to cash the check (since it IS her signature!) and lying to me about it.  

Jennifer Arn and Sandar Goldens may try to rip you off so beware.  I can't attest to cleanliness or care of her dogs, since I never bought from her.  But I CAN attest to having my deposit "stolen" and being jerked around.

Slander is not warranted

AUTHOR: Becky - ()

POSTED: Wednesday, May 01, 2013

Every single thing I posted in my report is documented exactly how it happened.  You want to accuse me of slander?  I will show you direct evidence from emails.  In order for you to sue me for slander, you're gonna have to prove that I am falsly accusing her of something.  As you can see in my report, I have a copy of a check that was signed "Jennifer Arn", so I absolutely asked her if she cashed the check herself.  It really doesn't seem to be common practice for a bank to cash a check for someone who doesn't have ID with a name matching the check.  So for me to wonder if she cashed the check, especially after I was being ignored for a month, isn't too suprising.

Most importantly, I never posted on ANYTHING in my report saying she stole my money.  And for a defamation charge it reads: "The statement must be ‘published’ to a third party, who cannot also be the person who is being defamed. Publishing in this context does not mean that it must be printed, but purely that the statement has to be ‘made available’ to someone other than the person about whom the statement was made." 

My report was worded carefully so I think that any legal action taken against me would be ridiculous.  I have emails proving truth to everything I posted in my report.  Your case will be dismissed and you will have wasted both of our time.  Judging by the other rip-off reports posted on this website, I'm not surprised Jennifer Arn has a lawyer for the past 15 years.  MY report should be the LEAST of her worries.    

My deposit WAS stolen from me.  It also WAS returned to me by the bank a few days ago, so I had pretty much washed my hands of the situation.  Jennifer Arn DID sign and return the affidavit like the said she did.  

As for an apology, I would like an apology for handling the stolen money so poorly.  If things were reversed and someone paid me $100 for a product, only to have it stolen in the mail, I would be RUSHING to get the affidavit signed and notarized so that person got their money back.  I would apologize for having such a terrible thing happen.  Instead, Jennifer ignored some of my emails and didn't even respond back for about a month, only to try and make me feel guilty because she had to spend $11 notarizing it!!  I even had to finally respond back to Jennifer to stop emailing me because she is just making things worse for herself by continuously saying things like "s**t happens" and being unprofessional.  I reminded her I was keeping all communications and it was in her best interest to stop messaging me.  

So before you go wasting anyone elses time, remember that the first part of defamation is whether or not my accusation is true.  My messages prove that a "Jennifer Arn" cashed my check.  You should remind your client that the bank has ways of finding out who cashed the check, since there's cameras everywhere.  The cops will eventually arrest someone.  And when they do arrest someone, I'm sure I'll get to see who the thief really is.  

By the way, how many rip-off reports are posted on Jennifer anyways?

This complaint is false and slanderous

My name is Maxine de Villefranche.  I am an attorney.  I have represented Ms. Jennifer Arn for over 15 years.  I am very familiar with Ms. Arn's signature because she has signed numerous documents in my presence over the years.  This matter was submitted to my office for review.  I obtained a copy of both sides of the check the complainant, Ms. Rebecca A. Robinson, claims having sent to Ms. Arn.  Ms. Arn signed an affidavit under oath that she never received this check and never negotiated it.  Ms. Arn has also filed a police report regarding being the victim of mail theft.  I can attest that the signature on the back of Ms. Robinson's check is not Ms. Arn's signature.  As a result, Ms. Robinson is making false accusations in an attempt to destroy Ms. Arn's reputation.  Ms. Robinson must retract her false statements and apologize to Ms. Arn.
