In the pursuit of finding the perfect… In the pursuit of finding the perfect furry companion, I unwittingly stumbled into a nightmare of deceit in the puppy breeding industry. My journey, marked by heartache and frustration, serves as a warning for anyone considering purchasing a puppy from websites connecting buyers and sellers like Greenfield Puppies or any similar online puppy website. The Chain of Deception: My ordeal began with the innocent desire to welcome a new puppy into my home. I did not understand or know about the dark world of online puppy sales. Little did I know, the puppy I chose and eventually bought was listed for sale on Greenfiledpuppies.com by someone who posed as his breeder but I later found out was not his breeder. This would have never come out if my puppy did not end up being sick and me trying to connect the dots of the paperwork that came with him. The Devastating Consequences: Upon the arrival of my puppy, my joy quickly turned to worry as I discovered he had Giardia – a dangerous parasite with severe health implications for both humans and animals. I am disabled and this is very scary for me. Despite assurances of my puppy’s health and the paperwork from the veterinarians who cleared him for sale and transport at Sugarcreek Veterinary and Holmes Wayne Vet Service, it was clear that my puppy was not healthy. About “Gold Standard”: GreenfieldPuppies.com website proudly boasts of a “Gold Standard” of health for the puppies they sell, yet my experience was very different. Edna Hochstetler was selling the puppy acting as if she was his breeder when actually my puppy was bred by a large commercial dog breeder in Ohio named Atlee Swartzentruber. At the time of purchase she never explained she was not the breeder which is very misleading, not transparent and unethical if you ask me. Seeking Accountability: Faced with mounting veterinary bills and the ongoing suffering of my new puppy, I refuse to remain silent. This is not fair to the dogs or the people buying them. I am asking anyone who reads this not to buy a puppy from any website. Greenfield Puppies has a disclaimer that absolves them of responsibility stating they don’t handle the transactions or guarantee breeder information. I found out the hard way it all falls on the buyer and was misled on their platform. A Call to Action: I am asking all dog-lovers to join me. Don’t buy a puppy online. Pick your puppy up in person so you can meet it’s mom and where she lives. These websites lack transparency. I owe a debt of gratitude to Stop Online Puppy Mills, whose support and research helped me navigate the scribbles and handwritten paperwork to finally figure out where my pup really came from. Please visit StopOnlinePuppyMills.org to learn more about “Broker Websites” like Greenfield Puppies and how they operate. In conclusion, my journey with GreenfieldPuppies.com has been really hard. I feel deceived, guilty and misled, not to mention heartbreak. I remain determined to seek justice for my puppy and all those who suffer at the hands of this ruthless industry. Please share my story to educate others. JP

Had a great experience Had a great experience! All the negative reviews made me caucious, however I am 100% certain of 2 things. 1: Every experience is different. And 2: I noticed and would like to point out the vast overwhelming negative reviews. Have you noticed every single one uses very specific words. "Red Flag" or "Dirty Amish" or "Mennonite Family" and finally "100% puppy mills". Seems to me like if these farmers are willing to breed the dog for a discounted rate than the over priced breeders "such as those charging $1800-$2000 for a mixed breed dog, ie, Goldendoodle" are salty about this because it's impacting their market. I would also troll them constantly. The sympathetic stories you will notice pushes you to take on a stance to help "fight these puppy mills and avoid them" these are posts from people who believe they are activists. You can hear it in the tone and forceful nature to get you on their side. Using phrases to make you feel as if you're doing something wrong for going and buying a dog. These are my observations and I can also assure that you will see the same. My dog is great the mom and dad had full range of the farm, the puppies were running around in a large fensed area with 8 matching cute food and water bowls. Parents were smart, knew a ton of adorable tricks the breeder showed off with pride.

What a mess My son purchased a French bull dog from a breeder in Fremont,Ohio. I tried to talk him out of purchasing from him. I just had a bad feeling. The price was just to good to be true.My son gets the dog home. We take him to the vet. The vet tries to find out information on dogs health and vaccines no luck. After having the dog for two weeks, the dog has a seizures. Something is clearly wrong our little dog Moncler. Moncler has to see a neurologist now, and I am so scared of what they will find. Greedy for money because this guy is into breeding exotic bulldogs. I believe my dog was abused because when I touch to show him love he trembles, and I not my son have every abused our dogs and appears to be scared.

Mama breeding dog saved from puppy mill Just rescued a dog who was used as a breeding mama over and over. These dogs on these sites come from mills, the dogs live in filth, they live in cages in barns or sheds and have 0 medical care. Our new girl was flea infested, underweight and has lymes disease-we just found out. These dogs are advertised to be happy, healthy and bred in pristine conditions on a farm. Do NOT support this.

Do not post your pups on this site. Doesn't practice moral Posted my 5 pups... separately... 3 one day. 2 days later. Listed as diff litters on purpose to see the outcome. Paid $25 a piece. My pups are at bottom of page all together. My pups fall within the last 10 pups. Yes I have lots of info, 8-9 pics plus parents pics. Still last. Ads older than mine come before mine. Ads with only one or two pics come before mine. Ads with no parents pics come before mine. They're clearly lying about their protocols. Their controlling who's at the top and who's at the bottom. People are going to continue to complain left and right until they become fair. This site makes millions every year from breeders posting pups. Currently they have 5000 pups listed under $500 which means in 45 days they made $100,000 just on the "below $500" category. Think about that. That's only one category. There's 100 or so. Yup Millions. Million millions is what they make. While I sit over here can't sell a litter of 5 pups. Lancaster is clearly thieves and liars.
