Report Attachments
I purchased a puppy from Mittelwest German Shepherd in Wonder Lake, IL from Julie Martinez. I paid $3000.00 for the puppy they had hip dyspepsia. I had her ex ray done at nine months old because she was beginning to limp. I was told I would get a replacement. I had first picked and I picked the puppy that I wanted from a different litter, but when the puppy was eight weeks old I noticed that the puppy I wanted was missing and it started out with six and now only two of them are left on the website. She is selling these dogs knowing that they have a hip problem. I will never in all my life buy another dog from Mittelwest, and I was told that I have to pay to have the replacement shipped. Titan the father of my dog is on her website and she is asking a large amount of money for that dog. Stay as far as you can from these people. I don't know how this is going to turn out. My contact number is 2529558365 if anyone wants to contact me.

Mittelwest Mittelwest German Shepherds Charging me to send me a replacement puppy when I paid $375 for the first lame puppy. And she wants me to pay $375 again to send the replacement. IL Wonder Lake, IL
Julie Martinez at Mittelwest German Shepherd sold me a puppy from Titan and Ola. When the puppy turned nine months old I took her to the vet because I saw that she was limping on her rear left leg. The vet determined that she had hip dysplasia. I spent $3000.00 for the dog and $375.00 shipping cost, and now she wants me to pay the shipping cost over again for the replacement dog being shipped to me. I don't think it is fair for me to pay the cost over again when I paid for it the first time in good faith hoping that I was getting a healthy dog.
Her argument was if I go to NY five hundred miles from my home and buy a piece of furniture that was defected when I got home, I would have to return it to NY for the replacement. That I understand; but I paid $375.00 for shipping and I chose not to drive to IL. I feel that I shouldn't have to pay twice. And her boyfriend said that normally I would have to pay to send the lame dog back before I got the placement and pay for the healthy dog to be sent back to me also. It is not in writing on the website in her policy, and they act as if they are doing me a favor by telling me to keep the lame dog.
I can't breed the dog, and she was only going to put it down when she saw how bad the dog's hip were after talking to the vet and seeing the ex-ray. Her hips were so bad that she will have to be put down at five or six years old if I don't spent thousands of dollars to give her an operation. So buyers beware. I put out a report on her and she has threatened not to send the replacement because of the report.
I don't think that I want to spend $375.00 for another dog from her, because I will be getting another lame dog based on the negative reports all over the website about her business practice. I will cut my loses and be done with Mittelwest German Sherpherds. She can remove this and block me from her face-book page but she can't stop the warning I am going to give over the social media. She is money hungry and she thinks everyone else is dumb and she is the only smart a*s.
I will be reposting all over youtube, facebook and google theses links making people aware.
