chocolate lab puppy scam
Responded to a Hoobly Ad f(saw the same as on Craigslist) or chocolate lab puppies. The owner "Elle Flynn" sent videos and pictures as I requested them. We checked them through google images and found them to be original. Seemed legit and since we were hesitant, she offered a refundable deposit which we sent through google pay. I asked to see a copy of mother and father's registration and she sent me one from a dog in Idaho. I called and spoke directly with that dog breeder, who had no idea who this person was. We requested a refund and she ghosted us.
This is the information she provided:
The name on the pseudo-contract is "Elle Flynn". The associated phone number is +1 (321) 244-6401.
The email address used is elleflynn14@gmail.com
The address listed on the deposit receipt is:
909 Chapel Oaks Court, Winter Garden, Florida, 34787
dog
Was talking to a lady about a FULL BREED cane corso and she said (still have the messages) she is ICCF registered. Paid 1k for her and we took her home. When we got to the vet they ran a test to she if she was mixed with something. She is 37.5%mastiff, 25% cane corso, 25% Rottweiler and 12.5% American staffordshire. What a rip off. Lady username is "canesncons".
scam for money - selling frenchie
Messaged back and forth about buying Frenchie from him spoke with him and wife on phone and thru text. Said they would meet came time to meet and they wanted a deposit to meet that was the "wife's rules". We raise English bully's and are aware of scams so we don't just do deposits unless we know the people. We offered to meet a police department so everyone felt comfortable and they said they didn't know if they could do that that they'd probably just move on. They are both African American you can tell by the way they speak. They photos and videos must be fake, don't put down a deposit you won't see or hear from them again.
ip banned
I had two accounts (was unaware of the one, it is old!) But still was logged in from my ip address. Well they banned my IP address. I emailed good ol' Peter Grigor and he emailed very short responses but all very unethical for any business response. "I told u no". And other smarta** responses! Now I know why a lot of the reputable dog breeders are running from this website. DO NOT USE HOOBLY! If you're truly reputable go to gooddog, or AKC.
My hoobly account is banned . i can not send message in hoobly .please solve this problem
chocolate lab puppies scam
Responded to an ad for chocolate lab puppies. Receievd a text back, I decided to call instead of texting. Spoke to the ad poster named Elle Flynn. She sounded legit so we placed a deposit for $200 through google pay. I asked for more pictues of the puppies and the next day she sent me a few. Another day or 2 goes by and she sends me a few more pictures. She also said she was going to have a meet and greet so we can select which puppy we wanted on Saturday around 3-4pm. I thanked her and left it at that. We heard nothing come Friday or Saturday morning. Sent a few texts, and still nothing. No response. So my husband and I started researching the pictures and found that she sent us picutres of puppies that belonged to another breeder in NY! We requested a refund and luckily it is done through google pay so we do expect to get that back. We even recieved a reciept and bill of dog sale! Not sure why she went that far but watch out for this one! Her number is [protected] and email is [protected]@gmail.com.
bernese/lab puppy
Beware of this seller! There is a puppy mill owner that continues to advertise on Hoobly with a location of Walled Lake Michigan or Hartland Michigan. All pups are $550 and they ask to send contact info.
I got a puppy they advertised as a Bernese/lab mix. My son picked her up, paid cash, and was unknowingly given the wrong puppy. We had her DNA tested and she has neither of these breeds: she is a crazy mix of breeds. She was very sick costing astronomical vet bills on Christmas Eve. They say they are "vetted" but the vet record is a handwritten Tractor Supplt brochure. The breeder ignored my calls but finally answered and said it was a Bernese/lab and she would not take her back. She advertises Bernese mixes and Australian Shepard mixes. I wish I knew of any other recourse to stop her, and get some $ back. Pictured is the ad for one puppy, the one listed, and what I got.
fraud
Hello, Best Persian Kittens extorted $500 from me then attempted to extort an additional $2900 for a heated airline crate due to bad weather when it was 45 degrees in both Pa and Ok. The seller has refused to return my texts or calls and refuses to return funds. I have emails and paperwork to prove this. I would like help resolving this issue. Thank you.
Complete fraud.
australian shepherd
bought male australian shepherd puppy on dec. 14th, 2019 he was from a litter of puppies the only only black and white one. ad said detroit, but went to belleville, mi to pick up puppy. after 2 days puppy became sick. took him to vet and puppy has parvovirus, fleas and worms, was hopitalized for 8 days. contacted the owner (told me his name was tony) by text at 313-740-2138, informed him of this situation with the puppy, he said he would refund my $300 for puppy. haven't received anything. tried texting him again but he will not respond to any of my text messages now. recently saw ad on www. hoobly.com/p/kg0yf with the same phone number 313-740-2138 selling purebred australian shepherds 8 weeks old puppies two females for $350. this is so terrible and dishonest how people take advantage of you, they shouldn't be allowed to sell any puppies at all. i hope you're able to find out who this person is. i wouldn't want anyone else to go through this. is there any way possible to find out his full name and correct address, i plan on filing a law suit against him if i'm able to locate him.
dog abuse and flipping
ONDRA BRIAR from Greenville Michigan sells many dogs on here that she collects free. They are ALL exposed to Parvo as her house is infested. She lies about breed, age, health, vet records etc. Many dogs die shortly after purchase. Google her name and phone number and learn why internet pet shopping is a horrible idea! Her most recent phone is (616)824-8105. Hoobly accounts are lovescats and likesgr. Why is Hoobly allowing this sick [censored]? Needs to be shut down!
english bulldog puppies
In the last couple days, I have had people contacting me for an English Bulldog a breed I don't own. After emailing back and forth with somebody inquiring about puppies. It turns out someone has used the words in my ad verbatim including my personal information. I have attached to screenshot they sent me and the link I found https://www.hoobly.com/p/lTenE
This person has been a member user name Sandrafabiola553 since November 2017. And I am sure if this is what is going on this isn't the first time they have done this.
Please take down this ad ASAP. This could severely hurt my business.
can't login to account
kicked me off & now I can't access my acct. It won't take my password & when I tried to reset it told me my email didn't exist. I've been a customer with hoobly for years so what is going on? I have puppy ads I need to keep up on so please fix ASAP. I also tried the mobil app it did tell me it was sending a code to email address which it never did that either. I'm losing sales which I'm not happy about at all
Thanks Sherri

dog abuse
Good morning. I have been collecting ads and complaints against Ondra Briar (Greenville's well known dog abuser and flipper) for a couple years now and have contacted many agencies, including Montcalm Animal control many times before they shut down. I have never gotten anywhere. However, in light of the President signing the new animal cruelty bill I am hopeful that Montcalm County will finally take action against this woman. Her home is obviously crawling with fleas, parasites and Parvo as another malnourished puppy was purchased from her two weeks ago and died of Parvo within hours. I know reports were filed but most likely no one will follow through. I believe this is now becoming a public health issue as she lies about everything pertaining to the dogs she collects and sells and they are obviously carrying zoonotic diseases. I plan to begin contacting local media outlets after the holiday but would like to give everyone notice so they have time to remove her from their sites.
If you would like any documentation, I have 90 pages of dog ads and online complaints against Ondra Briar that I will happily deliver to any interested parties.
Thank you for you prompt attention to this matter.

below is a picture of her website thank you.
website
Hoobly banned my IP for no known reason and I can't speak to them about getting it fixed. I have no way to contact them, no way to find out why it was banned and no known way to get it fixed. There's no contact information for them, no one to talk to about it or any way to speak to someone about the issue.
I have been using it just fine and now, suddenly, I can't.
user: abitofheaven2019
I bought a puppy from this user. they sent me through a loop trying to figure out what dogs she had available and even then, when I showed up she didnt have some that i wanted to see but had others she had not shown me... which was odd. I paid $200 for a puppy that she said was healthy and up to date on shots, however when I took the puppy home, it immediately showed signs of illness, which could have been confused with stress at the time. I had this puppy in my care for 3 days before it fell so sick that i had to take him in to an emergency care center where he was diagnosed with Parvo, a very deadly viral disease. I was stuck with a vet bill of $1, 500 because of this incident. When i confronted the breeder about this she just said "thats odd, none of the other puppies are sick" which is likely impossible considering my puppy's sister seemed to be very lethargic and sickly when i saw here and this virus in HIGHLY contagious, therefore any other dogs in contact with mine (and his handler) likely had it too. this woman should not be allowed to sell dogs if she KNOWS they are likely to fall deadly ill once out of her care.
birds
I purchased four parrotlets on oct 26th. On hoobly through paypal credit friends and family. 5 days later they died. I took necessary steps to ensure they had best care while they were in m ugh hands. Seller agreed to give me 30 day warranty before purchase and will not refund me my money. I believe I should receive a full refund. The birds were well cared for and seller isn't standing up to his word. I need help resolving this. Thank you.
unethical breeding lengacher's grabill, in
Our 11 month Goldendoodle suffered massive seizures in three weeks, last day he would not stop seizing, massive doses could not sedate him at Vet Hospital, he passed away. Picked puppy up from Amish, litter covered in poop, puppies acted as they had never walked on the ground, vicious growls when he opened barn door and we weren't allowed to go in the barn. Veterinarian found it suspicious that a puppy so young suffered from major health issue, "breeders" on texted me back when asked about another litter, did not respond when I told them the situation. Did not even receive a yes or no if they have had problems or a sorry.
why has my account been suspended?
I'm trying to find out why my ip has been blocked and how do I get it unblocked. I'm not sure if I did something wrong or if this is a mistake. I have used hoobly for years now and would like to continue doing so. I use it for selling my min pin puppies and I have used it before to sell boxer puppies. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
penny48732 and this lady.
This account on hoobly.com (penny48732) is stealing my number and putting it on all of her posts. I am receiving calls and texts about it constantly and need this to end now. I have tried contacting hoobly to have her banned from the site but there is no way to contact them. They need to shut her down and ban her from the site. She's is stealing information from others and spamming people! I've reported her over and over and nothing is being done!

The same exact thing just happened to me. The name and address are different, but I'm sure it's the same person. I realized it was a scam when I searched the address and saw it's listed on Zillow available to rent.
