last year I needed my dog placed in a kenel until my move was more stable. I found this guy Bob through a recommended source as trainer, kennel and breeder. I felt in our phone conversation that my rottweiler would be in good hands and that he would be the last thing I had to worry about. I got ONE month behind and Bob had informed me that as long as I make some type of payment I would be fine. He also stated that if I just send some dog food it would show good faith. I would call him every week to check on my baby and he would always assured me that my dog is doing good. Well when I found my new residence I called him and stated that I am about to bring my bill to pay for the housing (which was $500 extra) and he said that my dog is lost??? How do you lose a dog in a caged enviroment. Once I heard that I know that he did somthing terribly wrong and more then likley used my dog as a working dog for one of his job sites. It has been a year and I still have not received my dog or money back. Bob does not answers my calls anymore. I am in the process of sueing his for $5400 and my dog. If you love your dog PLEASE do not let this guy TOUCH it. Your dog will NOT be the same or you may never see the dog again in your life. His contract that he makes you sign has fine print stating if you are one month behind he keeps your dog.
DOG LOVERS BEWARE and if you are out there PLEASE file a complaint to put this back yard breeder out of business!

Hello. I have been an extremly satisfied customer of Bob Hieples for many years. I purchased a German Shepherd Dog named Luke from him for personal protection in 2015. He was very honest about the dogs good points and bad points and sold him to for a very reasonable price.
After that I purchased a German Shepherd puppy from him. Then, my next door neighbor an Iraqi war vet begged me to sell the puppy to hiim the very next day and he has been very satisfied with the dog.
One day I was with Luke in San Diego and a young disabled couple..... one who was a paraplegic in a wheel chair and the other who was blind were so impressed by Luke that they asked me for Bob's contact information. A month later they came to my door with a gorgeous white German Shephered on the leash and they told me they drove to Bogs home in LA and purchsed him.
My dog and my puppy both came with AKC registration and Bob was listed as the breeder. He has a formal training facility on many acres with professional trainers and equipment. He is classified as a A team breeder/trainer.
I was orginally refered to Bob Heiples by a well known German Sheperd Breeder who has been on TV in LA training Dogs named Darell who stated to me "I trust Bob Heiples with my life". When it comes to dogs I could not agree more.

You Stated You Did Not Pay Your Dogs Boarding Fees?

You could not take care of your dog. You boarded your dog out and did not pay your boarding fees as promised. You said that Bob asked you to at least send some food to feed your dog which proves he tried to be reasonable. You could not afford to take care of your dog so you dumped the responsiblity to care for your dog into a strangers lap. You could not pay for your dog's room and board so how could you expect Bob to pay for it either? If you abandon your dog a kennel and don't pay for the fees as promised then you loose custody and control of the dog and the people at the kennel can sell, give away, place in a shelter, euthanize your dog, etc. however they see fit. Please acknowledge your role in whatever happened to your dog.
