I also got a sick puppy from Willys Mountain view Kennels. My puppy at 4 months had elbow dysplasia, which normally should not show up in a such a tender age, but it did with our puppy. The warranty that you get from Deb is not worth anything. She tells you that you have to give the puppy vitamins and use her code. Those viatimins are not worth anything. They are an MLM scam, and the breeder makes money off of each purchase. If you do research on the vitamins, you will see that they really are not worth the money.
My puppy had to get Xrays that cost over $500 each time, not including the vet fee. I paid $850 for the puppy. Deb says she is not responsible for any of the fees, but will glady replace the puppy for us. This puppy has been in our care for over 2 months at the time and we loved the puppy so much that we could not just hand it over. I too wish this breeder would take better care of their dogs, and breed only healthy ones so people do not have to spend so much money for caring for a sick dog.
We purchased this dog so I could have a companion for walks/runs, instead, I have a dog that can only take 5 min walks, if that much. This could have been avoided if they would breed dogs that had an elbow dysplasia test done before breeding the dog. We love our dog, just wished it was healthier dog, especially for the money we dished out for it. i filed a complaint with the BBB many years ago.

We bought a pup from this breeder 9 years ago and have been very happy with our dog. She is the BEST dog I have ever had. We were so satisfied that our family just bought another pup recently from this breeder. The dogs are happy, healthy and social. I would highly recommend this breeder to others.

I've already commented on another post. We have a beautiful healthy Golden from Willy's and couldn't be happier. Purchased September 2013, he'll be a year in July. He's fabulous! We refer others to Willy's. I find VERY INTERESTING the poster's comment "I filed a BBB several years ago" and yet here they are assumably from their post with a new puppy and still complaining/having a nasty vendetta against this good, family breeder.
