I AM SAD TO SAY THAT, LIKE MANY AMERICANS LOOKING FOR A 'BEST FRIEND', I WAS TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY A DOG BREEDER. I WAS LOOKING FOR A COMPANION FOR MY BLOODHOUND BLOO, IN HOPES THAT ONE DAY, I WOULD BE ABLE TO BEGIN MY DREAM, AS A DOG BREEDER AND RESCUER! ALL OF MY DOGS IN THE PAST HAVE BEEN RESCUES, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF MY CURRENT TWO BLOO AND OUR GIRL DAISY. THE ONLY REASON I DID NOT LOOK FOR RESCUES THIS TIME WAS BECAUSE I KNEW I WANTED TO BREED THEM.

WHEN BLOO WAS 8 MONTHS OLD, I FOUND TOP DOG BLOODHOUNDS, AND THERE I CAME IN CONTACT WITH TAMMIE CHRISTOPHER, OWNER. SHE SAID SHE HAD A GOOD MATCH FOR BLOO AND I. SHE WAS ASKING THE SAME PRICE THAT I PAID FOR BLOO. WITHIN A COUPLE OF SHORT DAYS, MY CHRISTMAS GIFT DAISY, SHOWED UP AT THE AIRPORT.

THE TRANSFER WENT VERY EASY. TAMMIE WAS HELPFUL AND EASY TO WORK WITH...UNTIL... I NOTICED SHE SENT NO PAPERWORK WITH HER(WHICH WE ALREADY DISCUSSED ONCE!), EXCEPT THE VETS VERY VAGUE PRINTOUT. I CALLED HER TO LET HER KNOW THAT I NEEDED HER AKC APPLICATION. TAMMIE TOLD ME SHE WOULD HANDLE IT, AND IT TAKES TWO WEEKS TO RECIEVE THE PAPERWORK AFTER SHE FILES IT. I ASKED HER TO FILE IT RIGHT AWAY, SO THAT THERE WAS NO DELAY. SHE SAID SHE WANTED TO WAIT TO MAKE SURE WE KEEP HER NAME AS DAISY, ALTHOUGH WE KNEW FROM THE START WHAT HER NAME WOULD BE. I WAITED FOR THE PAPERWORK, ASSUMING SHE FILED IT AS SHE SAID SHE WOULD.

TAMMIE GREW MORE AND MORE DIFFICULT TO GET IN CONTACT WITH. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH, I EMAILED AND LET HER KNOW I HAVE NOT YET RECIEVED ANYTHING REGARDING DAISY'S REGISTRATION. SHE DID NOT REPOND. I SENT HER A TOTAL OF THREE EMAILS AND NO RESPONSE TO THOSE, OR ANY OF MY PHONE CALLS. FINALLY TODAY,OVER 7 MONTHS LATER, I CALLED HER FROM MY HOUSE #, WHICH SHE DID NOT HAVE. I WAS ABLE TO TALK TO HER.

SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE WILL NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANY PAPERWORK UNTIL DAISY IS SPAYED. THIS WAS NEWS TO ME. IN ALL OF THE DIALOGUE THAT TAMMIE AND I HAD, SHE NEVER MENTIONED THIS! SHE SAID THAT THERE IS A CONTRACT ON HER WEBSITE STATING SO. WELL, I HAD NO CONTRACT, NOTHING WITH MY SIGNATURE THAT SAYS I WOULD SPAY MY DOG! SHE ALSO TOLD ME, AS SHE WAS YELLING AT ME ON THE PHONE, SHE NEVER EVEN REGISTERED THAT PARTICULAR LITTER. SO EVEN IF I SPAYED HER, SHE STILL CAN'T BE REGISTERED!!!

TAMMIE FLAT OUT LIED TO ME! I ADORE DAISY AND THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT PAPERS DON'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT SHE IS PART OF MY FAMILY, BUT THIS DOG IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE BEGINNING OF MY LIFELONG DREAM. IF I WANTED A SPAYED DOG, I WOULD HAVE RESCUED ONE THAT REALLY NEEDED A HOME. I AGREE WITH PET POPULATION CONTROL 100%, EXCEPT WHEN YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE WHO WANT TO RESPONSIBILY AND INTIMATELY BREED, RAISE, AND PROVIDE PUPPIES TO GOOD LOVING HOMES! TAMMIE CHRISTOPHER OF TOP DOG BLOODHOUNDS TREATED ME SO RUDELY ONCE SHE HAD MY MONEY, SHE HAS AWFUL BUSINESS SKILLS, AND EVEN WORSE PEOPLE SKILLS.

In response to rebuttal:

Tammie has failed to produce the 'spay contract' she speaks of. This reciept she shows, printed after I paid paypal, this was not a contract. I see that it refers to a contract, but I've haven't seen it. I made this transaction online, Tammie's paypal website was down until just as Daisy was to be put on the flight from AR to TX. A one way, cargo ticket. NOT $300. Tammie said that if I wanted to come get her it would only be $200 more than the price of the dog. Wierd, huh? However, Tammie could write whatever she wants under that 'item' description. Either way, she keeps bringing up the contract I've never seen.

As Tammie knows, it was my intention from the beginning, that I was going to breed bloodhounds. Which is why I already had a male. I find it quite interesting, on another site, she posted that my male (I did not get from Tammie) has substandard pedigree, she has never met nor seen my dog! I also find it saddening that she continues to assume I am breeding my puppy, who is less than a year old! Any responsible person knows you wait until they are at LEAST two!

In my opinion, Tammie's business etiquette is not the worst part. The disregard for an animal that she can't breed is what breaks my heart. This is Tammie's own words in an email regarding Daisy's Mom, "I had the mother to your puppy put down after I found out this litter was a DEMODEX MANGE carrier." This is what becomes of a dog who can't produce 'quality pups'? In my opinion, they are all quality, it often the humans who don't measure up.

I promise to post if Tammie ever produces the spay contract, to retract comments. But I know it will never show up, because I've not seen one!

Lies to the breeder for cheep puppy

AUTHOR: Top Dog - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, June 21, 2009

On Nov 8th 2008 the purchaser agree to the terms of (NO breeding rights, spay on an PAYPAL Invoice for payment on puppy of $300.00 as a pet only.
As a show breeder and home of several AKC show Champions and Europen Imports, We place puppies in Pet homes and show homes.
No show breeder would place a puppy in a home for $300.00 with Breeding rights for the puppy owner to do with what they please with there bloodlines...
Our web site and every add on the internet says (spay, neuter price or $1,200.00 breeding show price. I co Own every puppy sold with show and or breeding rights.
Now 7 /8 months later she has decided the pup has grown up and she wants to breed her.( On Nov 8th 2008 she agreed to a No breeding invoice and made payment)
This litter was not registered with AKC as I found out later the mother has genetic defect. The only treatment for the gentic defect is to spay/neuter and medicate,THERE IS NO CURE. I will not give registration papers to the puppy owners of this litter so they can breed and continue to create genetic walking time bombs.
