another broken hearted ajaye client - Page 1

I write this post not out of anger,I am a client looking for closure after the loss of my best friend Mars.I came home from work just like everyday,hung up my keys and opened my patio door to see my best friend.He bounded in just like he did everyday,got himself a drink of water and proceded to bring me his rope for a game of tug.I grabbed the other end of the rope and the game began,he gave me one big jerk and let my big baby win.What happens next will forever be etched in my mind forever,I suddenly hear a large painful cry behind me.My only child is laying there on the ground motionless,when i go to pick him up he dies right in my arms.I live less than mile from my vet and rushed him there,only find out my 3yr old son died from a heart attack.I have tried to contact Ms.kolbe(sheppards von ajaye)only to find all her numbers are disconnected.I did not buy my baby on line.I found her through one of the schutzhund groups.I do not know if i can trust any breeder anymore.I thought I did the right thing by going thru gsd group to find a breeder,gsd groups seem no better to me than the classified ads in my local paper.I dont feel like the breeder failed me,as much as i feel like I failed my best friend by supporting that Damn puppy mill.This is just my way of saying I miss my boy and Im sorry for not being able to do more for him.

I'm really sorry that happened to you and your buddy. molly

I hurt for you, It so hard to lose one you love. Most Breeders do the best they can. I do not care how carefull you are, it is a crap shoot. You can study the pedigree, you can be in the business 20 years and you can have a litter/pup with health issues. You can have a litter with the same bitch and stud all great pups, repeat the breeding and now have issues. Just like humans, you marry and have children, some perfect, some have diabites, autisim, midgets,can not hear, can not see, one leg shorter than the other, etc. I do agree there is a time to shoot the breeder, when they sell a sick dog and know it. When they send you a noch zu. when you were told normal. Tell you the dog is pregnant and she can not have puppies, or healthy ones. I am not defending "Ajaye", just breeders in general who put their heart and soul into trying to do the right thing....

upsman Iam so very sorry that you lost your best friend at such a young age my thoughts are with you Thomas

How sad, so sorry.

I am so very sorry for your loss.It happens.I really am so very sorry for your loss. I dread the day my dog could go before me

I would not expect Melissa to care much as she has moved on to another breed or other breeds. I am sorry for your loss. There were alot of people looking for contacts though on Melissa and people who purchased dogs from Melissa. You should have contacted them at that time to tell your story.

Upsman, you have my deepest sympathy towards the untimely loss of your dog. It is a very hard thing with that to deal. I know that we have all heard the stories about this breeder, and I must digress since I know only what I have read here. A heart attack is something that can happen to a dog from the best breeder with a history of producing excellent dogs from the best stock. I know that by me saying that does not make it any easier to deal with the grief. I think that most of us have our dogs' heartbeats examined once annually while they are receiving their boosters. Even that is no guarantee that all is well since it is but a simple test. For something such as this I would have a hard time blaming the breeder, unless a well-known fault existed in one (1) of the parents and the breeder proceeded to use this dog. Bob-O

BS story? You have got to be kidding me. Until you have your dog die in your arms, you will never understand. What kind of person would write such BS about a dog that they loved as their child? Unsympathetic a*s.
