  My fiance and I just purchased a German Shepherd puppy from Megan and we are appalled by this breeder.  She refuses to sell any of her puppies for less than $2,500, yet would only let us look at ONE of them (a pick of her choice).  She promised us we would love the puppy that she was showing us, which happened to be the case, yet I still find it to be an odd and slightly shady way to sell puppies to someone (especially after claiming to be such a reputable breeder).  She also told us that the puppies are so expensive because of their prestigious bloodlines, and their ability to become champion show-dogs. However, we have yet to even see any papers of our newly adopted puppy.  She also claimed to be the number one German Shepherd breeder in America, yet I saw no hard evidence of such a claim, other than a few trophies in the corner behind the receptionist desk.  None of which were shown to us, so that we could even read what this breeder was truly awarding her for.

  This puppy also had a noticeable bump, that created a slight mohawk of hair, on the center of her head.  Megan promised and guaranteed that it was just a pimple that they had popped and that it would go away in a few days.  Then she forced over $200 dollars worth of food and toys on us, claiming that the puppy "NEEDED" to start out feeding on this type of wet food.  The toys that were forced upon us were claimed to be toys that she has been supposedly playing with for a while, and "NEEDED" to have to feel comfortable in her new environment.  So of course we wanted what was "best" for our new baby and we gave in.  We later came to realize that our puppy not only refuses to eat the food, but also never plays with these toys that we spent a fortune on.
  What we are the most upset about is Megan's inability to return our phone calls.  We took our puppy to the vet 5 days after adoption, for her first checkup and asked about the supposed "zit" on her head.  The vet examined it and diagnosed the bump (and also found another) as sebaceous cysts.  These cysts will continue disappear and reappear, and will rupture causing the dog to become prone to infections.  The contract we signed states that if there are any congenital defects documented by a veterinarian within the first week upon purchasing the puppy, a refund will be given in terms of a new puppy from the next litter.  Well we called within that first week, following the rules of the contract, to notify Megan of the defect.  We ended up having to leave a message with her receptionist who said she was away for the weekend but would call back Monday.  We have called multiple times since Monday, and still have heard nothing back from her.  

  Megan promised us that the puppy would have no health issues, and so, in being so expensive she guaranteed we would be saving tons of money on medical bills (or lack thereof, I should say).  Anyway, we are now faced with a bill of over $300 to get these cysts removed from her head.  Moreover, the scars from this surgery will now prevent our puppy from ever being qualified to be a champion show dog, which we had planned on training her for.  Her show dog ability was a lot of the reason Megan had convinced us to adopt her.

  All in all, I am appalled by this breeder.  She lied to us, scammed us, and now is ignoring our phone calls. I don't recommend anyone buy a puppy from her.

Honet and Reliable Describe Huas Juris

AUTHOR: John McIntosh - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, May 21, 2012

I read this complaint over a year ago and when I went to Haus Juris German Shepherds to check out the facility I asked Megan Judge, the breeder,  about it. Before I tell you what she said let me address a few of your complaints.

Yes she sold you k-9 Kraving Raw Diet food but that's what she was feeding the puppy and you just can't go from one food to another immediately unless you want to deal with diarrhea.

As for the toys? Megan showed us many products. A play pen, chew toys, bully sticks and a water bucket and hook to hang on the crate/play pen. Did we spend a few hundred extra dollars? Yes we did BUT we would have had to buy them from a pet store if we hadn't and Megan's prices was competitive or less.

Now let's address the pimple. Was it there when you bought the puppy? According to you it was. Could you have refused to take the puppy? Yes. As for Megan's returning phone calls? Yes she is slow but in her defense you and I are not her only clients. She is a breeder, trainer and handler. She has clients all over the country and world and also calls from prospective buyers. I have called but never have I been ignored or overlooked. I usually get a call from a kennel worker and if they can't help me Megan ALWAYS calls.

I have never heard Megan say she is the number one breeder in the country but she has the top stud dogs. Numerous kennels have used Liedo, Orus and Kloud in the past few years to produce some of the best puppies you can get. Number One? I think she is.

My wife and I drove from Florida in October to see the facility and meet Megan. In December of 2011 to pick our puppy from the 3 available. Did Megan pick a puppy for us? Yes she did but we chose a different one. Why does she pick the puppy/puppies for you? Not all dogs are right for you. She knows form her years of breeding what type of temperament a puppy will have as an adult. If you want a working dog she'll show you those. If you want a house pet she'll show you those. If you pick a puppy that has a high drive and that doesn't fit your lifestyle you will not be happy with the puppy and she wants happy clients. Megan Judge and Haus Juris is a great place to get a quality dog and if you don't believe me look at her facebook wall at all of the happy Haus Juris owners.
