He’s telling me his name is Robert and his wife’s name is Catherine and before I pay I want to know if it’s a scam :((
Oh NO!
My husband & I lost our 4 yr old dachshund baby girl a week ago & I started looking online for dachshunds. I found the William Dachshund site. WE ORDERED TWO!
After spending 1400.00 for the supposed dogs, we were contacted by Christian Pet Shipping & told it was URGENT & that we had to purchase a thermal crate due to weather & the type of dogs we were having shipped. We were told the delivery person would either give us cash or write a check to reimburse us 100 % for the crate.
They said they’d transfer the dogs back to the crate from the breeders & return the thermal crate to the airline. I emailed the “breeder” & was told they didn’t know the dogs would require a different crate, that those crates were expensive & to make sure & get our $ refunded. I even asked the “breeder” if they would pay for the thermal crate & that they be reimbursed instead of us.
So we paid another 1500.00.
The last red flag was when ANOTHER person called to say we had to pay 2000.00 for dog insurance. That the puppies were in Atlanta, GA and they couldn’t guarantee the puppies safe travel w/o insurance. They had an amazing website where you could track the dogs travel. It showed times & that the puppies were in GA & pending an insurance payment. I kept emailing w/the “breeder” & was fed more BS to why.
I kept emailing CALL ME NOW!
The excuse was they were at work & had a very strict phone call policy, that I should communicate w/ the person asking for ANOTHER 2000.00.
Thank God my husband said NO MORE, it’s a scam!
Everything was “Urgent” & playing on our empathy. Like: the dogs needed temperature controlled crate, waiting for payment before they could get them on the plane, flight leaving in less than 2 hours & we were told unless we bought the 2000. Insurance they couldn’t refund our crate upgrade. Saying repeatedly: I PROMISE YOU – you will be refunded the 3500. from the delivery driver arriving at our house @ 9:10pm straight from the airport w/the puppies.
I WISH I WOULD HAVE FOUND THIS SITE BEFORE SPENDING 2,900.00 !
I did look multiple times for dachshund scams & didn’t see any until now. I even put in William Dachshunds
Grrrrrrrrrrrrr
So here we are with pet blankets & beds, dog food & treats, harnesses & leashes ordered & there are NO PUPPIES on their way, there NEVER WERE!
My husband just retired & this is a financial HIT we didn’t need!
We are barely recovering from the death of our beloved dachshund & NOW we’ve been scammed!
I pray others won’t be fooled like we were!
these basters got me too! The bank refunded my money then took it back and was like you approved it to these people. Like wtf I am still so annoyed about it. But hey guess what I think they have a Facebook page
We got scammed by these people promising us this adorable puppy after paying 750.00 then shipping company insisted 2000.00 for a crate fee. They are spending a lot of time on fake websites fake names untraceable phones I will post every puppy Fake website on my Facebook to warn people of these. Disgusting theives I am sorry this happen to you

Williams advertizes selling puppies for $700 including shipping. Wants money paid with Zelle. When money is paid he gives dog to Christianpet Shippers. Then shipper sends text wanting $1500 vis Zelle for a special crate. Guess what, dog never ships and both web sites disappear and neither will answer texts
I just experienced the same thing. However when I got into contact with the christianpet shipper something didn’t feel right so I did not give anymore money. All I know is I understand the feeling and I was so upset. Thou I still see the website they used.
