Description

Contacted Adorable Shitzu Puppies for Adoption and Rehoming about a puppy. They were supposed to deliver puppy and never showed up. Then I received a message that the granddaughter was in a bad wreck so they were going to “The Agency” and they would deliver puppy and I would pay them. I was then contacted by shipping company and they said I needed to pay $100 insurance and I would get a full refund upon delivery. They wanted payment by gift card, when I said no they said Apple Pay, Venmo, etc… when I told them no that wasn’t the way legit businesses worked I didn’t hear from them in a couple days. Was contacted by breeder that they were going to sue us for puppy abandonment.
