Sick Dog Sold By Thunder Hollow Kennels
My husband and I purchased an Olde English Bulldog from Amy Herman back in 2005 or so and I have been waiting to find a site such as this to let everyone know NOT to buy a dog from this woman. Amy collected my payment in full in advance and then my husband and I drove from Ohio to Kentucky to meet Amy and pick up what we thought was going to be our family pet for a very long time. We brought Louie home the Friday before Memorial Day and he seemed fine, a little tired, but he was only 6 weeks old when we picked him up. By Sunday, he was very tired - Monday morning he started vomitting non-stop so we rushed him to the vet to find out that he was loaded with worms and had parvo. Amy continued to tell us that the puppy was taken to the vet and that it was in good health and our vet didn't know what they were doing or talking about, etc. She wanted me to ship the dog back to her - COME ON - the puppy was on his last legs and my vet would not release the puppy to me - obviously it had PARVO. To make a long and very sad story short - Louie died on Friday - yes that is correct one week from the day we picked this poor puppy died. He spent his last week in an isolated crate. This was a devastating experience for our three little children and to this day they still talk about why a person would sell us a sick dog. I incurred over $700 of vet bills and cremation charges which Amy agreed to pay - needless to say she never paid the bill because she said she couldn't prove the puppy died and said that my vet could be lying - she wanted the corpse sent to her and when that didn't happen she ignored all contact that either myself for my vet's office made to her. We had to bleach our driveway, sidewalk and any areas the puppy went to the bathroom and so do did our neighbors so their pets wouldn't contract parvo. PLEASE DO NOT BUY A DOG FROM AMY HERMAN/THUNDERHOLLOW KENNELS - her puppies are cute, but they are not healthy.
