Hi Nancy, Glad you are feeling better. I too have that pre existing condition you just dealt with  I got Abby from the Mother Daughter con artists from Guelph Ont. They overcharged me (lied about exchange rate), sent me a puppy with Conjunctivitis, Ear Mites (which had been there long enough for a secondary infection. Outdated health certificate, the last entry was for a 7wk old puppy not the 13 week old puppy. They rushed shipment (one day) to avoid booster shots. The puppy arrived FILTHY with puss in the eyes and VERY FOUL ODORS. She hadn't been bathed at all judging by her ears et al. She arrived at 1:30 and was in the vets office at 3:30. I asked the breeder about temperment and was assure she was good with kids etc. The puppy was afraid of it's own shadow as if it had been low dog on the totem which had been bullied a lot. She's just now settling a bit but is VERY WARY of new people and children which makes me believe that the puppy mill operator does not monitor interaction with their kids and dogs!!! I wish I could post their kennel names but alas I'd get in trouble with the moderators. So if the words Dream or Lane are in the Kennel Name (they have two locations) up their in Ontario and the neighboring area, STAY AWAY or be prepared to be misled.

I am sorry to hear you had a bad experience with them. We got Hershey from them and couldnt be happier with her. She was healthy, we took her to the vet on the way home and he gave her a great review, she was happy, social, well adjusted, pretty much the perfect doodle. Everyone who met her as a puppy was blow away in a good way with her. And we are familiar with puppy mill puppies, our friends saved a standard poodle from one and it was a very different dog....Could something have happened during shipping? I picked Hershey up in person.
.........but Hershey did have mites that required a shampoo treatment, nothing to serious.
Can you PM me with some of your details of your expereince, I currently reccommend them to others but would like to hear you experience and may take that into consideration.
