Complaint Review: Petland Kennesaw

 A few months ago my Wife and I purchased a puppy from Petland Kennewaw, in Kennesaw, Georgia. Now when you "adopt" a puppy from them, they explain all of this wonderful info to you claiming that their puppies come from local breeders, and that the breeders are screened for quality. Well Upon getting our puppy we found out that our puppy (who is showing signs of hip dysplasia....from being bred in a puppy mill) was bread by a "terriffic" breeder by the name of Becky Franks. Now oddly enough Becky Franks is from Oklahoma, not very local is it? In addition to that little fact, Becky Franks has one of the worst puppy mills known to exist. Reports about her and her "kennel" appropriately named "First Class Kennels". www.humanesociety.org/assets/pdfs/pets/puppy_mills/100-puppy-mills-list.pdf (the list of the 100 worst puppy mills in existance....Becky Frranks' puppy mill is on there). The USAD has also inspected Becky Franks' "kennel" and, has graciously provided proof that Petland has purchased puppies from her "kennel" which can be read at the following website: www.petshoppuppies.com/report.asp?ID=73B1838 The fact here folks, is that Petland does indeed buy their puppys from puppy mills. No, Petland does not care that you now know this because they now have your money. Please, before you buy from these people dome some real soul searching, and ask yourself, "is it really worth it?" I'm sure that Mr. Parker will reply to this and claim that Petland does not use puppy mills, and that they only use "local breeders". Honestly folks, the proof is right there in the text, in plain black and white. Don't let these people fool you. I made the mistake, and was heartbroken when I found out the truth. It has not hurt me but my wife, and my kids as well.

Sincerely,

Former Dedicated Petland Customer.
