Kristen Campbell & Ryan Smith Thistle Down Kennels SCAMMER! SHADY! LIES! FRAUD!!!!! Glade Spring, Texas

 May God help this woman!
I found an add on Nextday pets of two female shepherd puppies for sale. I contacted the breeder and we had a conversation of the pups! from the start she was very adament about refering to her website.. Which I may add looks decent and reputable. Later that night my fiance' and I were looking at the add. There "WERE" pics of the parents of the puppy. First one was Kristen holding her female Marleigh, the one to the left of that was Xillo the father of the puppy.. I called Kristen and left messages to SPEAK about her dogs, pups, etc.. Well she only contacted me with text messages. So I asked her which puppy is Marleigh's? I wanted a puppy that looked like her because she looks like my male I have at my home. she said "look at the two pics to the left of the parents". There were 4 pics total of the 2 puppies. One has a different mother from a different litter.
So we have two puppies different mother's....I picked the puppy which was the one that was to the left of the pics of parents! She said that was Marleigh's pup! I then made all the arrangements put 600 cash in her bank of america account then paid 690 through paypal. She text me the flight info later that evening. well I asked her what would this pup come with? Papers, health certificate, food,crate, vaccs history... Well I go pick up this puppy and when I came close to the crate it was filled with stinch.. She had diarrhea ALL OVER the crate, there was NO FOOD! the puppy looked scared and also didn't look like the one I picked out! I thought maybe travel etc would have affected her so I brough her home gave her a bath. she had diarrhea in my bathroom and had this "sick Smell" to her.. She was so hungry she started eating her own diarrhea. I bought her some Blue wilderness All natural puppy food and she loves it! Her diarrhea just over these past few days looks a lot better!!!! So after i called the breeder to inform her of the "MIX Up" she denied ever sending me the wrong puppy. I told her to go to the add on Nextday Pets and see for herself. She then said she was in a meeting and would get back with me...About an hr later she said she sent me two pics of the puppy.. Well what she did was she changed her website and switch the pictures!!!!!!! I knew then that I was dealing with a person who is decietful, lack of concern for others not to mention these animals! I then searched her on GOOGLE and found NUMEROUS reviews of her and they were ALL horrible stories!!!!!! So here I am with one to add! Should of done my research reviews before i purchased this puppy!

She said she would refund me my money as soon as the puppy was back with her. I was of course taking a chance of not recieving my money...Then she sends text messages of her saying she 's a police officer and she knows her rights and blah blah and i can "TRY" to get my money from her in court! She also stated she has been through this before...So here I am wondering what to do. All the while this puppy just wants to be loved...She sorda cowards down at your feet... God only knows what type of life she has had..She is 5months old and I can feel her ribs and her weight is all wrong for her size. I made arrangements at my expense to ship this puppy back. I was on my way to the airport and turned back around to my house.. I didn't have the heart to send her back to this disgusting woman! God put this puppy in my life for a reason so I'm keeping her! I made a vet appointment for her later today to have her fully checked out. Her eyes are to cose together on her head, concerned about her vision, still diarrhea, and we are doing full blood panel on her!

NEVER once did she call to check up on her or to see how her trip went...NOTHING! I mean NOTHING!!!! Everything was through text! She won't call you back, only if your wanting to purchase oh! she'll call you then! I contacted the Sheriff's dep to inform them of her and also animal control..They DO have history on her! Check for your self!
This woman is a joke her business is a facade and I also had to call the Sheriff dep back to stop her from texting me! She lies, denies and I hope ONE day she gets what she desreves. Hopefully a DIVINE INTERVENTION

I would like to keep posted and update the staus on this puppy so I will write later after I get back from the vet! I'm thinking of naming our puppy Diamond since she came from the rough!
