On 4/30/2010 we purchased a pup from BKs Chihuahuas.com, paying $250.00 via PayPal. The pup was to be delivered 2 weeks later. The day before delivery, Brenda contacted my daughter with a very tear-eyed email telling her that the puppy had died. She told Emilee that she could have a replacement or a refund. Emilee chose the other pup-one Brenda highly recommended and really pushed. Supposedly had excellent bloodlines, AKC/CKC registered, etc. We picked up the pup on May 17, 2010. Brenda ""explained"" that she didn't have the papers for the pup at that time because the pup had actually been sold to someone else and she had already given that woman the papers. But since the pup was too small to breed, the woman was taking a different pup and would give Brenda back the papers. Brenda said she would get the papers back and send them ""in a week or two"" or else request new papers from AKC/CKC. We were to email her and remind her to do this. Well,we emailed her and got the same song and dance. Promises of getting the papers, then telling us she was basically ""holding papers hostage"" on another pup this woman had bought until the woman gave her our pups papers.
We continued to email her, in fact having our emails returned as undeliverable several times because she had changed her contacts. We have emailed numerous times, now she will not even answer our emails. She does not answer her phone. We are now wondering if this puppy is even registerable, and if the original pup we purchased even really died or if that was a lie too. We love Tinker and are happy to have her, however we want her papers as we paid good money for a registered dog. I know to some the papers would not matter especially since we are not breeding her, but, when you pay for a dog with supposedly excellent bloodlines you expect to get what you paid for and the proof to go with it. Brenda will not give the papers or the proof. We have warned several friends we know who were looking to purchase a Chihuahua puppy not to deal with Brenda. I have been doing some research and have found complaints on this website, the better business bureau, etc. Wish I would have done that before we had done business with her. It would have been nice to know that we were going to be ripped off ahead of time. We will not buy another pup from her again. Or from anyone else for that matter unless we have the papers in our hands.
