Ladd Hill Labradoodles Reviews
I had a truly horrible experience as a former guardian with Ladd Hill. If I had known even half of what I know now I NEVER would have done it. I have now spoken to several other former guardians and the stories are heartbreaking.
I love my dog more than words can express, but if I had it to do over again I would never have gotten involved with this company.
When I signed up to be a guardian the woman who gave me my dog said I could raise the puppies in my home. She trained me briefly to do so and then I didn’t hear from anyone for almost 2 years. When my dog first went into heat the owner had a different employee call me while I was in the car on my way to breed Rosie and she informed me I would not be able to raise the puppies in my house. My little girls had been very excited about us raising the puppies and my family is going through some hard times (I have stage 4 breast cancer) so I was upset and argued that wasn’t what I signed up for. But, I still took Rosie as planned.
Then, while sitting in the parking lot of Newberg Vet I got a text saying they had taken my dog and terminated my contract. Literally took our family dog away from me and my children after 2 years through the back door! I begged and pleaded for them to return her and they wouldn’t even have a conversation with me! Finally, I got a letter from their attorney stating my contract had been terminated, but I could buy our dog back after she had her puppies for $10,000.
A few days after this my newly pregnant dog RAN AWAY from them. She was outside alone, wet and cold for over 24 hours! I found her 5 miles away from where she had ran away! She may have died if I hadn’t found her. I could have just hidden her then and not told them I found her. But, I’m a good, honest person. I told them I found her and allowed them to take her to the litter raiser.
My dog then had 2 litters of puppies for Ladd Hill. 13 puppies and they made a ton of money (over $50,000). They never would have made that money or found my dog if I hadn’t helped.
Even after all we’d been through, I still wasn’t done with the stress and heartache they would continue to cause my family.
When my dog had her second littler of puppies it was one of the employees kids birthdays and two dogs had gone into labor around the same time. So, I offered to help them and ended up spending the night at a strangers house for two days and helping birth her puppies. Talk about above and beyond! Then, she had to have an emergency c-section with the last puppy. The Ladd hill employee told me she had been seeing lots of these c-sections since the owners had gotten vaccinated for Covid (you can’t make this stuff up). Essentially blaming me for causing my dog to have an emergency c-section because I, myself, had gotten vaccinated for Covid.
Then, she into heat again. The last time she was close to her heat cycle they had emailed me telling me to watch for signs. Not this time though. And it was Christmas time and my daughters birthday. We had family in town. We were busy! I didn’t notice she had gone into heat. She was secured in my backyard when my brothers 9 month old golden retriever came over. He broke off leash from the street in front of our house and busted through my gate to get to her.. they got connected. It was awful. I called Laddhill right away to ask them what to do. The employee first suggested maybe a get her an abortion, or maybe we see if she is even pregnant and then if she is, we just raise the puppies as goldendoodles. I offered at that point to give them money to so I could just spay her. I worried about her having another litter anyway after her last emergency c-section. I wrote a letter to the owner apologizing asking what I could do to make it all right. Does she call me so we can just have a conversation about it? No. She has her lawyer send me yet another letter saying they are suing me for $52,000 for the lost profits on my dogs 3rd and 4th litters. Mind you, they had ALWAYS told me she would only have two to three litters.
We have now settled, but I had to hire an attorney and in the end pay more money than I would have (double actually) if I had just bought a dog from them. It caused me and my family so much stress and heartache.
