Never got promised refund. Beware of bay lake doodles
Paid $2200 for one of Marcia Mobley's dogs (Bay Lake Doodles) on Aug. 2015. He looks nothing like a labradoodle...groomers, his obedience trainer and people in general laugh and shake their head when they ask me his breed.. He has flat face and little fur on his legs...so I now describe him as a "doodle gone bad". We love him, but expected Marcia, as a knowledgable breeder, to know what she was selling us. She also agreed to a refund of $700 in two emails but we have never received anything. I have tried to be civil, but she is very rude person. I have all of our correspondence.
this cust bought a early generation labradoodle that developed a IC coat meaning an incorrect coat, still a labradoodle but resembles more of lab sad that we where never told they where unhappy about this puppy, some people love them and ask for them funny how we never got a call and they would never leave their name when posting. We do not want anyone to be unhappy with their puppy
DO NOT USE THIS BREEDER. I initially began conversations with Marcia Mobley of Baylake Doodles in April 2015, hoping to pick up a puppy in June 2015. Marcia sent me a picture of the litter and I chose a puppy, then mailed her a $500 deposit. Unfortunately, the puppy I chose had a hereditary illness and was no longer unavailable. Marcia let me know that there were future litters coming shortly, so we scheduled a weekend where I would drive up from Miami to Orlando to choose a new labradoodle.
Problem #1- I made clear that I wanted a mini labradoodle because I travel frequently, and she was unable to confirm that any puppy I received would be a mini. I made clear to her that I wanted a mini so that I wouldn’t’ have to constantly board my puppy, and she was unhelpful in this regard.
Problem #2- On my visit to the house in Orlando on 6/13/15, I was greeted to a home so unhygienic that I would have never taken a puppy from her. I was afraid to sit down because the house was filthy.
Problem #2- The day after I visited, I emailed Marcia (6/14/15), letting her know I would not be getting a puppy from her, mainly because I needed a definitive answer regarding the dog’s size.
Problem #3- I waited three months and would email her intermittently to check in, where I was given a litany of excuses: husband’s illness, travel, but I always received promises that the money was coming. On 9/8/15, she stated that she would mail the check on 9/16/15.
Problem #4- I called Marcia on 9/23/15 because I had not yet received the check, and upon identifying myself, she became extremely belligerent. She referred to me as a “little ************” and also insisted that if I contacted her one more time she would “take care of [me].” I asked her what she meant by that veiled threat, and she only said that I would “find out.’
Needless to say, between her verbal assault and her threatening my safety, I would implore any prospective buyer to look elsewhere. This person is clearly not in possession of all of her mental faculties, a fact evidenced by both her reaction to my phone call and the unkempt state of her home.
P.S. She has a terrible history of ripping people off, google “Marcia Mobley/
This customer came to my home while I was In St Pete and just gotten married my assistant Rose greeted him at door, he wanted a puppy that was already sold to someone else, he left mad and demanded his refund, my assistant did not have access and permission to give him refund. when I was told about it later that day , we tried to reach out to him, at no time has my home ever been dirty my assist been with me 6 yrs, its spotless and we have hundreds of customers that have come thru the door raving about how clean we are. this man wrote to state of fla trying to get us inspected, the of fla came with an appointment and was wonderfully pleased and said breeders as well as rest and shopping centers all get bad reviews over a disgruntled transaction, the found NO REASON to write a bad review, as they did write cust and asked him to STOP his rant. After returning home I sent this man back a refund and he was still angry at me, I could not satisfy him whatsoever.
So unfortunate to see crazy postings concer is a ning Baylake doodles Marcia Mobley Mobley is a wonderful caring breeder with healthy dogs we can't say enough about her over the last 18 years of knowing her and having three of her dogs that should be enough said I find the internet is an Avenue to make an orchid a horrible claims regarding anyone this day and time read her references and others throughout the community and the United States her references speak a lot about her
If you don't think it's a doodle, get it tested! I bought a dog from her and heard the same thing from EVERYONE, vets included! Everyone said there is NO way that dog is a doodle. So I had him tested just to see and he IS a doodle. He's the BEST dog I've ever seen. I wouldn't trade him for anything. He looks NOTHING like a doodle but that's what I picked out and that's what I wanted so I'm completely happy. Marcia was very fair with me about everything.
He got a labradoodle puppy from Marcia 9years avo and have never been happier. He has turned out to be the sweetest and most friendly dog. Everyone who meets him loves him instantly. He is gentle and smart and beautiful
cust knew there where on refunds on deposits when you cancel
Unfortunately this cust was sent refund and decided to post a nasty review, we never promised 700 refund we sent 300 back to them, can not seem to satisfy this customer
We have a 10 year old Doodle from Bay Lake who has traveled the world with us and been pure joy. Incredibly smart, loving, and happy to play ball, swim with us, or just "hang out" with his family.
Marcia was a joy to work with. Professional, available, extremely knowledgeable, and always with the best interest of her dogs foremost in her mind.
Marcia has never ripped anyone off and this cust is not telling truth about her
she has sold to lots and lots of wonderful people over last 17 yrs many are outstanding Dr Vets and Lawyers and more and it seems this man is angry he did not take the pup he was offered
many breeders pick a puppy for new owner and Marcia allows you to come to her home and pick out a baby
Wonder why 17-18 veterinarians in Fla Ga and Sc buy her dogs along with several celebrities and more - unfortunate this man was not happy getting back 250.00 of his deposit, as DEPOSITS are non refundable
