Sam Binicki Beware of puppy mill/puppy broker Sherwood Park, Alberta Canada

Beware of puppy mills and puppy brokers - do not deal with a woman named Sam Binicki - she lives in Strathcona County in the area of Baseline Road and the Ardrossan Road. She is a puppy broker and sells unhealthy pups to unsuspecting victims. A friend of mine had her heart broken when her new little puppy suddenly died only a month or so after she'd adopted him. The autopsy shows a congenital defect, and now this monster of a woman is even trying to deny it was one of her dogs! She sells mostly Yorkies - or any small breed she can get her hands on. She has numerous complaints against her - we've even discovered a CTV television special in 2008 about her - and many complaints on line spanning through the years since then!

The Alberta SPCA has her on their radar, but so far there is nothing they can do as there is no law against puppy mills in Alberta, and she keeps any dogs on her property locked up where no one can see what kind of conditions they are living in. PLEASE - do not buy a dog from anyone unless you see their breeder's license AND they are open and honest and let you see the parents of the puppy! Better yet - adopt from an animal rescue - you'll save money and take one more step towards eliminating homeless animals in our area. Please share this with everyone you know - this woman needs to be put out of business. When I asked for her breeder's license she literally laughed at me and hung up on me! She thinks she's got it made and she cares nothing about the dogs she is abusing.
