Jason and Jane Miniature Doodles advertise puppies for $990. Everything appears to be legit with frequent communication and paperwork to be signed, until the time of delivery, where the transportation company (Paramount Pet Transport) emails an urgent message for a deposit for an air conditioned crate that will be refunded as soon as the dog is delivered. I foolishly paid the rental fee and received another urgent message a couple of hours later requesting an additional $1,045 for needed insurance. At that point, I knew for sure something was not right. I am still out the money I paid for the mini golden doodle and the deposit for the crate, and I will most likely not see that ever again. The business does not accept credit cards. I have now found out that the phone numbers for J $ J and the transportation company use web based phone numbers and their names are not connected to the addresses listed on the websites. They are scammers, so please do not let yourself get victimized in the manner I did.
