Then I received a call that I was sent an email to transfer name of ownership to me and it required $3500. I spoke with the representative and informed him that I was not made aware of these additional costs. He stated that the dog could not proceed with travel until this was taken care of and I would be reimbursed the amount on delivery of the puppy. I paid $1000 through Zelle via my bank. My son paid $2300 (apple pay) as I reached limit amount through my bank. My husband paid the remaining $200. As luck would have it, due to the time it took for name transfer, the puppy missed his connecting flight and remained in Memphis with rescheduled flight that evening. An update call from Express Airpets informed me that the flight was cancelled and the animal would fly out on Saturday morning at 10:00 am with arrival to my home by 2:00 pm (EST). A call in the morning from Express Airpets informed me that the flight was delayed by 2 hours and would arrive at my home by 4:00 pm. I received a call when the flight left Memphis and a call when the flight landed and was reprimanded for not checking my email. The representative from Express Airpets named "Johnson" informed me that $6500 was required for licensing of the puppy. I stated that I would get the dog licensed on my own. He stated that $6370 would be refunded on delivery of the puppy. The remaining $130 would cover the cost of obtaining the license. The email stated that $11,370 would be refunded on delivery. I stated that I had no funds available through my bank. I was instructed to contact the seller as they often will cover the cost.
I contacted the seller via text, who told me to pay it and I would get my money back. I stated that I had no more funds available and was instructed by Express Airpets to contact the seller to make the payment. He stated that he was sending his wife to the bank and she would pay $4000 to the Express Airpets office but I had to pay $2500. I stated that I did not have $2500 and he told me to borrow it because I would get the money back and could pay the person back. I said that I had no one to borrow from and would he cover the total cost. He stated, "do not make me mad, just pay the $2500." With additional request for assistance, he stopped responding.
I spoke with the representative and ask to speak to his supervisor, who name was "Brandon." He was rude and asked why I was making this transaction so hard. I was told that if not paid, the puppy would go to a rescue home. I asked location of the home and was told that they did not know but it could be in any state of their choosing. I asked about a refund and was told that it could take up to 90 days. The transaction was cancelled and "Johnson," the representative who I spoke with throughout the 2 days stated that he would begin the process and I would get an email on Monday with the refund paperwork. Several hours later, I received a text from "Johnson" request a picture of my photo ID or Driver's license as it was needed to process the refund. I provided a picture of my college ID that has a picture. He text back that he needed a photo ID or driver's license. I stated that what I sent was a photo ID. He text back that I would hear from him again on Monday.

Next she asked me for another $250 of the $700 and said she would deliver the puppy to me. So I sent it to her. She sent me a pic showing the dog crate in a vehicle and said she was on her way.
THEN I got a message on messenger saying she wasn't aware she needed puppy travel insurance and told me I needed to send her another $350 so she could leave the police station and continue to bring the puppy to me. I told her NO I wasn't giving her anymore money.
I have been asking for my refund for 2 days now and she has not returned it to me. Now she is not even responding to my messages.

Additional Info:
The website looks professional but the testimonials are generic, and the breeder’s claims are too good to be true. Please investigate to help protect others from being taken advantage of.

And that's when the email started. They were very detailed In their description of the health of the puppies and the parents.Which look good to me. Then they got into how the puppy Would be delivered. They mentioned that the puppy would have a nanny companion The air.
Line flight to my nearest airport.
Which I thought was amazing because because I'd never heard of that before. Then they said that the airlines would be contacting me Along the puppy's journey., That's when I thought.OK, this is just too good to be true.I used to work for federal aviation and no airlines is going to do that. So I then went Straight to the Better business bureau website. I saw they had an f. Rating. I emailed king papion and let them next time. I check their website. It looked totally different. Less puppies were available.
In this time they didn't list their weight because over weeks of checking with them. The the ages never changed and now it doesn't mention. Their age at all. The pictures have not been aged at all like the puppies are still ten weeks old and I know they're at least three months old by now if they We're real.l

I found a border collie on line from CHARIOT BORDER COLLIES in Cape Coral, Florida. The website said they are a “Certified AKC Border Collie Puppies Breeders.” (Another lie.) Note, the pictures of the puppies for sale never changes. The same puppies are always for sale. I paid ALEX BOOKER, from CHARIOT BORDER COLLIES, for the puppy, Mari, and the shipping, which was reasonable. I am not sure how much Alex fits into the scam. I paid her for a couple items that she was going to pay the shipper for and she said she did not receive the money. She supposedly took the puppy to STERLING PET SHUTTLE to be shipped to us in Colorado. There is no address on the shipper’s website though it looks very nice and professional. The shipper prefers to communicate only by text. First STERLING PET SHUTTLE wanted money for insurance ($1,800), then money for a thermo crate ($500), money a City of Denver permit ($1,500), and then money for a stamp for the crate ($200). Each one of these fees is “refundable.” “JAKE” called us many times trying to get more money out of us for more insurance ($500). We said, “Not a dime more!” One morning he called at 4 A.M. still wanting the $500 for more insurance. So now we are out a lot of money and NO puppy. I did apply for all the refunds that were promised us through Pro Purse & Pro Wallet, but that is a big joke. I applied at Pro Wallet and they put $25,000 in my account. What kind of scam is that? Nobody just gives out $25,000! I requested my refund be by Zelle or a bank cashier’s check from the shipper. “Blake” wanted to charge us a processing fee of $500 to return my refundable fees. I said just take it off what you owe me. The shipper said they can’t do that….they want another $500! Just a word of advice…DO NOT GET SUCKED IT TO THESE SCAMS!

Mind you only issue I had was not realizing the funds in my account were a little lower than the $1,000. I got all that taken care of then asked about the call and thats when I became a problem. I was trying to avoid heartbroken kids but that still happened. However, I'm not out $500 to "reserve" the dog.
