All of what you pulled up was on dzchihuahus website about a purchase that I made on another dog! I was not even talking about Little Bit. You have serious issues! I am saying she she she through out all of the e-mails. I am talking about a completely different dog! About Safeco, I left Safeco almost 2 months ago. Keep on calling Robert. Keep on calling. :) Thank You & Have A Great Day,
Robert

I have found information leading to the well being of LIttle Bit, please read below how Reannon boasts on how well her Little bit is doing. I have added the links to where she posted. The breeder site she posted isnt even active anymore, but through heavy searching through google I have found a recent post done on June 12, 2005 by Reannon Banua. *Great Things Come in Tiny Packages! I Just got pictures of Her and Little Bit developed. I will send them over to you as soon as I get them scanned in Sincerely, Reannon Banua < ... CLICK here to see why Rip-off Report, as a matter of policy, deleted either a phone number, link or e-mail address from this Report. Just had to write to tell you how wonderful she is doing! Her and Little Bit a long sooooo well together! She is so tolerant of him! She has the best temperment! She loves everyone but is still very submissive! She sleeps with me every night at the foot of the bed! We just got back from the vet and everything is great! Everyone himed and hawed over how beautiful she is! She is going potty in the right spot and is just loving all of the attention that she is getting. Thank you so much for allowing me to purchase such a great little girl! We are calling her Cliche'. I just got pictures of her and Little Bit developed. I will send them over to you as soon as I get them scanned in Sincerely, Reannon < I was also informed that due to this bad behavior Reannon Banua has been terminated by Safeco Insurance company. She claimed to have a sick and unhealthy puppy from me, but as you can see it is untrue and done by her as a malicious way of trying to hurt my reputation, Little bit is alive and well now as she was when I sent her away to this undeserving dog owner, As I stand, my Vet would have never allowed a sick puppy to travel. I rest my case.

First of all thank you to all of you with all of your responses. I have aleady talked to Diana Fushc many times. They really can not do anything but put his name on file and act as a medium in trying to subrogate for what has been done or lost. She was so familiar with his name that I did not even have to use his last name she new and just verified. I have contacted the USDA, FTC, BBB, puppyfind.com (where is was purchased) his vet, etc... You can not even keep up with the guy. He changes his name, number, e-mail and web address all of the time. Now he is at mychihs.com with yet a new number and e-mail address. Yes FL is a great state when it comes to the pet lemon laws but they honestly can not do much. The last thing that I can do is go to small claims court. I have contacted three lawyers. I would have to go to Daytona Beach which I am ok with :) but after all of the court costs I would not be getting anything back except for the gratification that every knows that this happened and it would be apart of legal documentation. That is honestly is what I feel I have been doing anyway. Robert, I am still waiting for mail correspondence to go to court with you. You threatened this months ago then again in august and yet again in september. I wish that you would follow through. You dont even know what the words extortion or slander are I guess because you sure are not defining them correctly. I have said nothing but the truth. I have never lied and I will continue telling the truth. As you can tell, my main goal is for everyone to know who you are and what you have done. I begged you to stop. How many times have I done that Robert? Yes, you did tell me I could ship the puppy back and get a new one. You NEVER said that you would give me my money back. Even if you would have said that I still would not have sent him back you you. All I asked for was 146 and some odd cents for his current vets bills. He has had more, but why bother you wont pay a thing. So about shipping the puppy back to you...let me think about this for a moment...lets put a sick puppy that is 5 ounces back on a plane to someone who shipped this tiny little dog. I think not. That would have made me just as bad as you. You dont deserve to even know that my baby is alive but thank God it is the truth. Now healthy on the other hand. You are wrong. That simply is just not the truth at all. If I did not love and care about my little man I would have sent him back to you. I just can not get over the lies Robert. You lied about your name and where I was getting my puppy from. You told me your aunt, sister, and mom were breeders and because of the hurricanes last year they were unable to talk to me and you were helping them sell puppies in acutalality I was buying my puppy from a pet store. Lie after lie. One only lies when they have something to hide Mr Gentil. Take me to court please I need a vacation. Daytona Beach sounds good. Please tell me one time I was condencending. By the way what I have said is not illegal, that is what this website if for Robert. To tell the truth to the unknown customers. Oh yeah...doing some rescuing due to hurricane Katrina? Interesting information if I may so so myself.

My name is Robert Gentil I am responding to this allegation. 1. A licensed State Vetrinarian examined the health of this puppy and passed, and signed and documented this. 2. Reannon was advised to return the puppy if she didnt feel comfortable with her Vetrinarians comments. She denied to return, I even offered to pay the shipping back and all expenses and a full refund, she denied the request. I love animals and would never try to hurt one or a customer, this person was very unreasonable and threatning. I was told to return her money and she was going to keep the puppy. I will not be taken advantage of like this, In the aspects of law I was black mailed and acts of extortion. If these allegations are true than she should be letting a Judge and jury decide who is right and wrong, this is not the right way to do it or is it legal to slander my name like this. I am in the process of doing the right thing and it will be dealt with in a Court of law, I will not tolerate these allegations and slander, this treatment is unacceptable and condencending. Her puppy is still alive and healthy to state. I remain, Robert Gentil

Go to www.malteseonly.com/lemon the law in Florida is tougher than any other state in the USA. Go to small claims court if you can. I wish you the best of luck with your pup. What I would like to say to this breeder is this........ Do you think that anyone is willing to fork out large forms of cash for a pup that is going to die in 6 months. I think it is the breeders responsibility to take extra special care of these special needs pups. Why can't these pups be placed within proper homes that are aware of the problem and are willing to love the pup and provide proper care? These homes can be screened to the specifics of each individual pups needs. A responsible breeder would take great care with the future health of this baby. I do not believe a breeder intentionally has puppies with fatal defects. That would be stupid. But when it happens, why can't you own up to it? A lot of families are not prepared to give the extra time and attention required for a special needs pup. Face it a lot of people don't have the cash for this either. There are an awful lot of animals living in shelters right now. Abandoned. Abused. Why would you risk having one of your pups in this situation? If there is one sick pup in every fifty, it wouldn't be a huge financial loss for these breeders. Unfortunately, that would be in a perfect world wouldn't it? It is people like this that give responsible, reputable breeders a bad name. Grow up!! Be responsible for your actions. Good luck to you with your puppy. I wish you the best. Keep us updated. Herb
