Complaint Review: Birdwalk Farms - Crossville Tennessee

I think they felt if they told your parents the information you needed to sell the puppies, that would create competition for themselves. Not to be rude, but what did you expect from a puppy mill?

In response to the two folks who suggested the customer's parents should consider thenselves "lucky" they had a "bonus" since they were sold a pregnant dog from Birdwalk Farms. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? POPPYCOCK! A responsible breeder would know which dogs were being bred and which dogs to avoid selling during a particular breeding period. How do I know this? Because I was also one of the unfortunate customers of Lucille Bailey. I spent a great deal of money to fly to Bird Walk Farm to meet them and select a future "Labradoodle". Guess what happen once I had the puppy folks! The Bailey's refused to give me any information about the Stud because the b***h had a "surprise" pregnancy! Since the Bailey's raise cockapoo's as well as labradoodles, guess who has a cockapoo. That would be me. I'll tell what the "scam" is. Breeding a mixed bred "labradoodle" with a cockapoo to create a "small sized" labradoodle. Don't be so quick to tell the customer who was sold a pregnant dog to consider herself "lucky". Do not judge others so quickly until you have walked in their shoes. I HAVE WALKED in the customer's shoes and I was also "scammed" and had the wool pulled over my eyes. Be careful, very careful, about judging others. Tracy

That's like the informercials on tv where if you call and order now, we will throw in another one free, just pay shipping and handling. Even if you don't want the extra gift it comes anyway, at your expense. While I agree that if they want the information about the father to sell the puppies they should pay the stud fee, they now have puppies that they are going to have to care for at additional expense and time. If her parents are elderly they probably aren't up to caring for what amounts to infants. Anyhow the OP is clearly not happy about the pregnant dog. Like Hugh said- they wouldn't have sold the dog if they had known she was pregnant. So maybe you could sell the puppies back to the breeders for a lesser amount? Since they already have the information about the father (and you aren't going to get it without giving up one puppy) and they would be providing care it would be fair to sell them for less. You would still get some money from having to deal with the pregnant dog situation. Just a thought, I have never breed my mutts, actually they come neutered from the pound, so I don't know how breeding works other than a little about horses. Just throwing out a suggestion.

You got one as a "bonus", if you will. Chances are if they had known, they would not have sold her and would have waited until the litter of pups was gone. Asking for pick of the litter is not an unreasonable request considering how much you stand to make from the balance of the litter.
