Complaint Review: Puppy Love Mr. Mark Petrizza

False reporting on dogs health and selling sick animals from Puppy Mills. My husband and I purchased an eight week old male Schipperke from those bastards in Feb 2001. He was the sweetest dog that I have ever seen. I grew to love him more then I ever thought humanly possible. They provided papers claiming that the dog had been seen by a veterinary and was healthy. That was false!

We took him to our veterinary two days after purchasing the dog. He was extremely ill. He had ring worm, round worm, mange and kennel cough. He was put on several different medications and had to endure months of chemical baths to try and cure the mange. We had several emergency room visits on top of numerous veterinary visits to try and get him healthy.

Despite our best efforts he passed away on July 13, 2002. After a three day stay in the hospital. He had suffered and fought for one year and three months. It was devastating. When my husband contacted Mark about the dog two days after we purchased him, his only solution to this problem was for us to return the dog and he would euthanize him. We could either get a new dog for free or get our money back. That was not a solution. Not only did those bastards lie to us. They are taking advantage of people's love of animals.

We loved Smokey so much and wanted him to be with us for a long time. However, because they gave us a puppy from a puppy mill and lied about him. That didn't happen. This was very traumatic for not only my husband and I, but my family who grew to love Smokey.

It was also traumatic on Smokey himself. He fought so hard but in the end it just wasnt enough to make him well. I want those bastards at Puppy Love and the vet and all of the breeders that signed those false documents out of business. They are the scum of the earth.

I have filed complaints with the Humane Society of the United States and The Better Business Bureau. I want to have a story done on these types of places so we can help save someone from going thru what we went through. We spent several thousands dollars trying to help this poor dog.
