whitegoldgoldens Overcrowded, overrun by dogs of all ages. Disorganized and dishonest breeder Rice Virginia
This place is a puppy mill whose fancy website makes it look like a high class breeding facility. Beware of the well written descriptions of the dogs and their personalities, and the ambience on the property. The website is very professional and eye catching, but very deceiving. The dogs look nothing like they do in pictures and their fancy European origins seem very questionable. The yard is overrun by puppies and dogs of all ages. Flimsy wooden shacks house the animals at times, but many are free to roam the yard (fenced poorly from a busy road). In the house up to 10 adult dogs inhabit one family room Litters are being born continously and housed in the same family room in the house. The breeders seldom use veterinarians, choosing to give all injections except rabies themselves.
Our experience involved a puppy we bought from her at the astronomical price of $2000 who didn't yet have papers because she told us the puppy's mother got impregnated by 2 of her stud dogs(really?) and she had sent out DNA to be examined so she could "determine" the dog's father. Pure hogwash! It has been 18 months and she has never sent any DNA, never sent papers, lied and refused to answer phone calls and emails. After complaining to the AKC about her and sending proof of my payment to her, the AKC said she refused to respond to them, either. She has never sent registration papers and never can because she never registered the puppies with the AKC, according to them.
Carolyn is completely disorganized and operates a fraudulant business. She talks a mile a minute but does not follow through with her promises. Fiurthermore, though many of her puppies may be wonderful, ours was found to have been bitten by a bigger dog on his jaw(it is no wonder with 50 or so puppies and dogs running around on the property) and has 4 deformed teeth as a result, as confirmed by out vet. We've owned 4 golden retreivers in the past and he is by far the most hyperactive and oppositional defiant dog we've ever had. (The best trainer in Leesburg said he's one of the worst she's ever seen.) He's rough with us and everyone and even after 3 different trainers and months of training, the poor dog cannot be trusted. We walk him every day and continue to try with him, but I fear he's not going to change.
This kennel should be shut down.
