Image

Description:
We have a new batch of teddy bears. There are two little girls that are looking for good homes. They were born on June 11th and will be ready to go around the 6th of August. Put your deposit down on a Teddy Bear today to make sure you can bring her home. We are asking $200 per puppy. This will include all of their puppy shots, the removal of their dew claws, and the option to register them with APRI.

Might as well start a new line. Golden to lab then to Chessie. Golden Chessador. What's next with this crap. "Why does my dog have all these problem?" sniff sniff

I just used the Fuminator on my black male (coat like a black bear!), my husbands big chocolate, and one of our fox reds. I'll bag up the hair (about three wal-mart sacks worth) and ship it to you. Wad it all up and turn on a ceiling fan, your wife will think that you bought her one of those puppies!

OMG that is unbelievably outrageous even for the shyster-filled world of designer mongrels. I wonder how we can get the word out to the Nigerian scammers to start scamming them?

"I WILL LIKE TO BY PLEASE THREE OF HIM. MY FRIEND IN U.S> OWE ME A LARGE SUM OF MONEY AND SO i WILL REMIT TO YOU CASHIER CHECK FOR TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR (US $200,000) AFTER YOU WIRE TO MY SHIPPER U5EMAN BELLO THE SUM OF $100,00 YOU KEEP THE EXTRA FOR YOUR TROUBLE..."

Did anyone notice their logo is designed to look just like the AKC's? LMAO

and then a phony U.S. Patent office logo and this stern warning:
Because of the massive popularity in America, thousands of people are being duped into believing they have purchased a real authentic "Teddy Bear Puppy" from the ATBA.
Some of the mixed breeds that are being represented as a "Teddy Bear Puppy" are too numerous to mention. Needless to say, these sales have corrupted the "Teddy Bear Puppy" name and the breed itself.

Numerous breeders are misrepresenting and defiling America's fastest growing designer breed of dogs, the "Teddy Bear Puppy". We will carry on business as usual, as the only genuine sellers of the "Teddy Bear Puppy" in America. The ATBA is the only service registration authority for "Teddy Bear Puppy" and dogs.

If you or a friend have purchased a "Teddy Bear Puppy" that is not certified or recognized by the American Teddy Bear Association chances are you have been defrauded and should seek legal advice immediately or contact ATBA directly.

Rallying cry of ripped off mutt buyers everywhere: "I'll SUE YOU!" Oh wait they just drop them off at shelters and exclaim they never wanted the nasty smelly little thing anyway....

OMG, you've got to read "About Us"!!!

Ronnie and Jason in real life are considered two of the greatest songwriters/singers in the world today and their new CD can be found at [URL]http://www.cdbaby.com/[/URL]
Move over McCartney!! "in real life..." as opposed to,,what? Their dog business? Legends in their own minds I suppose.

Give him credit though, the guy does know how to toot his own horn.. (have fun with that statement if you must).

Maybe that was their way of admitting that the rest of the BS on their web site is bogus (but their music careers are real?).

I will say this,

it is capitolism at its finest, or its worst, you decide. I like that he thinks he is the only on ethat can breed REAL mutts. Don't fall for those imitations mongrels that look just like what we have and even though you are just buying a dog to look at it isn't what you are after.
