The Breeder, Jamie Wing of Happy Paws formally known as Secret Valley Dachshunds, sold me a Black and Tan dapple little girl that I paid for in full prior to her being 8 weeks on August 14. The purchase price included UTD on shots, a new crate and vet health certificate and $350 for shipping. We spoke several times about when she would ship her and she would give me the excuse that the airlines will not ship with high temperatures over 80 degrees. Finally she told after a month had gone by and after several times I sent her a 10 day forecast with the weather being less than 80 degrees, she said she booked a flight on Friday Sept 16th. I cleared my schedule, losing two important clients and then that day she told me the weather changed and she couldn't send her. She told me that for another $140 she could have her shipped that Sunday or Monday. At this time I did not feel comfortable with paying another $140 but I told her I would go get my puppy. She did offer to let me have first pick on another litter but I declined. Another Breeder told her about Jordin Duffy who's husband works for United and she gets free tickets. Jamie arranged with her to carry my puppy in her lap on Sept 26th. Jamie told me she only charges $200 for this service. Jordin contacted me and told me she had my puppy, the night of the 25th and that she needed to be bathed because she reeked. I met Jordin at Charlotte, NC airport on the 27th, 4 hours from my home. Jordin handed me my puppy and a Breeder health record. I asked her about my crate and she told me that Jamie instructed her to use one of hers. I rode 4 hours back, took 6 hours because I drove thru flood conditions with her in my lap because I didn't get the crate that was promised. After not hearing from Jamie, I asked her about the difference of $150 and when I would get it and she told me she wasn't giving it back because she took care of my puppy an extra month. I have called three airlines to inquire about the weather restrictions and all three states there are no restrictions because pets are transported in pressurized, air conditioned and they only require a vet health certificate and the cost from Washington to NC is $275. I also called United Airlines about riding with someone and the puppy has to be UTD on shots, 12 weeks and have a rabies vaccine and the cost is $125. My puppy was over 14 weeks, only had NEXPAR at 6 and 8 weeks...not even sure on expiration date on those. If she didn't meet Jordin, there's no telling if I would have even gotten her. I spent $342 on vetting her and had to start her on a new set of puppy vaccinations because she didn't complete her series of shots and I am worried sick that she may have been exposed to something. I also found out that the crate to board the plane was the crate that Jordin carries her dog in that has some kind of infection and is in meds. I have screen shots and proof of everything...after reporting this to an admin I was removed from the Dachshund Puppies and Breeders page and only response from Jamie was a no refund policy she took a picture of from an invoice. She never provided a crate that she said she bought, my dog was not utd on shots and she lied about why she couldn't send her. She also did not provide a vet health certificate. This is very upsetting since I trusted Jamie completely and thought she was the one person that was an ethical breeder. No ethical breeder does this...at least she could have finished her shots so that she was safe from getting exposed to something. I disputed with Paypal for only the money for the crate, vet cert and difference in shipping. They were provided with all screenshots and communication and gave her 10 days to respond...they heard no response after trying to contact her and refunded my money I paid to her. I am now being told this may be a puppy mill situation.
Jamie Wing is on Facebook Operating "Happy Paws Dachshunds". She's based out of Stanwood Washington. She is the type of person who can sell ice and snow to an eskimo! She has sold 5 puppies with Parvo and 3 with kennel cough! She has ripped off 5 of my friends with money or sick puppies.
As soon as you complain she blocks you off her facebook acct and blocks you out of her group, so no one will know what she is doing!!
She is a double dapple breeder, she "claims" to have only had 1 oopps litter ....no she has had 4 and after 1 or 2 it's not an accident. That's called an irresponisble breeder! She is a animal hoarder as well. She has 46 adult dogs and with 3-4 litters per month, 50-70 dogs!!
She has been reported to aspca, the local new reporter in her town, the police dept, and more.
She talks a good good game....but do not do not buy it! She'll promise you a Vet Health Certificate, A Shipping Crate, and UTD on the puppy shots, which she has you paid for and you do not recieve none of it! You will get a puppy unvaccinated properly, with worms, kennel cough and or Parvo, no crate (just a puppy that reeks) and the puppy your paying for will not be vet checked or come with a vet health certificate!
Once you get a sick puppy or mention to her you did'nt get this or that you paid for, she'll say sales are final and block you!! She's in her upper 50's and lives with her parents her and her husband, and 46-70 dogs!!
She is definatly a Puppy Mill!! She sells all of her puppies "pet only" meaning no papers after you pay 800-1100 for a puppy you get just a puppy nothing else. She has no papers because her dogs are not registered. The only two dogs that are reg are Charme and Showme.
She used to show them two dogs, until a correctional officer seen her and her husband at the dog show and told people to stay away from them her husband is a pedafile and did time in prision. So she uses them two dogs to make you think she's big timing in the Dachshund breeding world....and she's a puppy mill animal hoarder!! She use to run her business as Secret Valley Dachshunds on fb but since she stole so much money and negative reviews she changed to Happy Paws Dachshunds now.
Her PayPal is negative and she now uses her husbands PayPal acct. SHe also finds free Dachshunds off yard sale pages and craigslist in her area, picks them up for free, and rehomes them on Happy Paws Dachshunds page for 400-750 claiming she sone all there shots, deworming, and more to them...and thet'll come with a health certificate and they do not!! All she has in them is the gas it took to go get them (locally). This lady needs to be stopped!!
She will try to get you to send it wire pay or wal-mart to wal-mart.. Big red flag right there!!
Please if you come in contact with Jamie Wing or Happy Paws Dachshunds run run run!!
