Came across website while searching for Mastiff puppy for my husband. Contacted seller via email asking questions about 2 puppies pictured in website. Seller responded quickly to all questions and discussed price. Offered to ship puppy if we didn’t want to make the drive to pick it up. Sent invoice once we agreed we wanted to purchase. We paid through Money Gram App with understanding the puppy would be shipped using Delta Airlines. The following day we received an email from a shipping company with an itinerary and shipping information. Then we received another email from Shipping company stating we would need to rent a special temperature sensitive crate because of bad weather. The price was $1286.00. When we called asking questions we were told it would be refunded to us in cash when we picked up the puppy. We contacted the seller of the puppy through text he encouraged us to trust the shipping company and this was standard procedure. We tried calling the breeder but he never answered the phone. I text and asked him to call us. He called and my husband stated we changed our minds and wanted our money back. He initially stated ok but when pressed as to when he hung up on us. The shipping company nor the seller are answering our calls now.

This is a site where I thought I was buying a puppy for my own companionship. After emailing and texting back and fourth I thought it was a Legitimate site and I would be getting a new dog soon. I unfortunately sent $500.00 to this individual and then I decided I wanted my money back. After several attempts there as been no refund and no more contact. This person is a thief and I hope their website will get shut down.
