Sick Puppy Sold
This was my first time using this platform to purchase a puppy and it will be MY LAST. I assumed the breeders on here are screened well so I thought they were licensed and professional and everything woudl be fine. Boy, was I wrong. When my puppy arrived, there was blood in his stool EVERY SINGLE TIME. We took him to the vet, heavy burden for THREE parasites. Talked to the breeder and she was not apologetic, and deflected blame like it was her second job. She also included exclusion for parasites in her contract, yet the dewormer she uses is useless against them. My experience is with Susan Schlabach - Misty Ridge Paws. If you are looking to get gaslit like you're in a toxic relationship, this is the breeder for you. I would proceed with EXTREME caution. Ask for fecal test results and also do not send through Venmo. I would at least go through Lancaster instead.
Response from Lancaster PuppiesOct 23, 2026
Hi Trang, thank you for sharing your experience, and we’re so sorry for everything you and Astro have been through. Bringing home a new puppy should be a happy time, and we understand how stressful and costly this has been for you. We appreciate you reporting this to us with such detailed vet evidence. Our team reviewed your concerns and spoke with the breeder directly about Astro’s condition and the importance of proper veterinary care before puppies go to their new homes. We’re also sorry that some of the wording in our replies didn’t come across as we intended. Thank you for your advice to other buyers. We always recommend asking for full health records before collection, and paying through our secure payment option rather than apps like Venmo, as it gives you extra protection. We hope Astro is feeling much better.
