  1. Yes, I understand that. Aqis only issues a health certificate. That is basically vitals and vaccinations. The tests that these dogs needed were requested. I purchased a perfectly healthy dog from them 9 years before. I believed them to be reputable, so no matter what there is a level of trust that is placed when purchasing an animal, and the level of intentional neglect and misrepresentation is reprehensible. I have received wonderful advice, as I do not live in Australia, and processes are a lot different there as compared to where I am. I had hoped to also be able to help prevent anyone else from going through what I am right now, as if the first one with respiratory issues wasn't bad enough I now have a 7 month old puppy with kidney disease, and evidence that they knew. So forgive me, but I am furious, as Consumer Affairs hasn't helped, I have notified every single body that I can try to find, and am still waiting to hear. And, I purchased these dogs to start a small line, not to breed on a commercial basis.
  2. Thank you, I still appreciate the thoughts and prayers for these bulldogs.
  3. big heart, and lotsa prayers specially for the dogs. Xo
  4. Thank you. XO yes I agree. This is a huge mess. It doesn't help that the breeder isn't EVEN attempting to rectify the situation. If it were me, I would be doing everything possible. They aren't even attempting to put the fire out, they are ignoring it. Not good for their reputation.
  5. $10000 did NOT include export costs. That was another $1800. I asked her to do the tests. She did not. Said it was muscular and she would outgrow it, which can happen. The other dog has had FUO (fever of unknown Origen) with blood tests showing inflammation and/or bacterial. He was coughing before I brought him back. I thought it was a chill. Hindsight is 20/20 I should have left him there. He still has the cough.
  6. Yes, I purchased 2 with the intention to show and breed, and to start a line. I do not live in Australia. I am willing to contact and pursue ANY avenue to be a voice for these dogs. I am doing my best to pursue this internationally, and I am more than willing to fly back. I cannot send these dogs back, I wish I could. I IMMEDIATELY informed the breeder. They do not respond to me any longer.
  7. Thank you. I'm flabbergasted frankly, because I feel this breeder used to take pride and care.that was with my first one years ago. .... And to put the burden of these puppies on me, well I don't know what to say. Or do. That's why I am here. I don't know what's happened, with them, or their dogs. All I know is I am extended beyond financial, and borderline emotional. I am $40000 in. And no end in sight, unless I just euthanize them both. Heart breaking.....
  8. I'm not aware of this breed having kidney issues, HOWEVER, she knew of the urinary incontinence, and I advised her to have the puppy tested extensively. She said 'it is muscular her mother had it she will outgrow it', well shame on her. I have extensive proof, thousands in vet bills and communication. I have expended every avenue I can think of to try to get through to this breeder. I truly hope their reputation supersedes the internet. I know mine does, 30 years in dogs, I would never do anything to risk mine. I wish I could say the same for them.
  9. @diva, yes, ok I guess.... they host shows. And, thank you. I will email dogs act. I know that I don't want to see ANYONE else in my position, however I know there have to be others. I have searched and googled and can't find many avenues to call out unethical breeders.... are there any in Australia?
  10. Believe me, I tried to get a contract. This wasn't my first time dealing with this breeder. My first dog from them was a wonderful healthy dog. Can someone let me know which ankc to contact, as they are located in Canberra. Would that be NSW, or ACT? As I have seen on NSW ankc they are not a member with them. I did email a president of the breed club for ankc, however I have not heard back. Shall I add that this dog was sold under full breeding rights, and show quality? I KNOW the breeder misled me, I'm furious. This is a breeder that is VERY active in the show circuit, and they even have their own kennel club. They have been approached to issue a reprisal, and have declined. They knowingly and intentionally sold me 2 dogs, that are sick. I'm happy to name them, however I am still trying to take the proper avenues. I have notified this website because they advertise them here.
  11. I did report to Consumer Affairs. They didn't help. I'm looking for legal counsel now.
  12. I recently received a puppy who I thought was from a VERY reputable breeder. I have discovered they are not, and they do not care about the puppies they are selling, with health problems. This one in particular was sent leaking urine. The breeder claimed it was muscular, but in fact, upon ultrasound, she has a double ectopic ureter, and abnormally small kidneys with scar tissue. She is 7 months old. With a price tag of $10000, I figured since I found them on this site, and they don't seem to care perhaps someone here can direct me to the proper avenues that will care. I have repeatedly messaged them, they do not respond. This is outrageous.
