We purchased two Boxer puppies from this location in April of 2014. We were told that the puppies were in good health, and from reputable breeders. Now almost a year later we found out the the male puppy has mange and can not be bred. Petland returned half of the purchase price. We also started training the puppies for competition, but can't do that either because the male is larger (much) larger than breed standards and walks like he has some sort of skeletal problems. It is very hard for him to stand up straight and almost looks like his hind legs are longer than his front legs, and has a permanent curve towards the rear of his spine. His temperament is fine, but we will never be able to breed him or enter him in any competitions.Now to the female; as a puppy she resembled a boxer and due to the fact that the sales people said the same thing about the breeders and AKC REGISTERED and and and I thought it would be ok. I know from experience that with some breeds it could take a few months to a year until the full physical character traits of the dog actually come out. Well the female turned a year old on Jan. 9th this year, and she doesn't resemble a boxer. She has the colorings of a boxer, but that's about it. No short pushed in muzzle like a typical boxer, and her coat is very long. When I got the dogs I scanned the barcodes on their info packages and it shows that they came from the same breeder, but their pedigree and AKC paperwork show something totally different.We payed close to $4000 for two puppies that we had great plans for and now can only have them spayed and neutered. When we found out about the male puppies hereditary issues I asked for contact information to the breeder and was denied. I have since researched reviews from other Petland customers, and found out that I'm not the first person who has been sold inferior / poorly bred puppies.I am prepared to take this case to small claims court if I do not receive s full refund.

Update;
Petland refused to reply to the BBB complaint. This will affect their rating, but when I told this to their complaints department "pawsative solutions" I was told they didn't care. 
I'd say it's time to close them down! 
DO NOT BUY PUPPIES FROM PETLAND!
