The Poodle Rescue Group of South Africa on Facebook - Mary Claire Finaughty

This writing is to ALL poodle *****s, no matter the size variety in South Africa

We are a growing community who wants to stop this individual from spreading false information about poodle breeders and makes it her mission to close down all breeders for the past 6 to 8 years

We truly hope that this writing is seen by Mary Claire Finaughty, residing in our area, Gauteng

Unfortunately we have to rate her one star for there is not an option for zero which would fit the entire profile of this individual

The "So Called" Poodle Rescue Group on Facebook - ha ha ha :-) :-) :-)

After many false statements was posted all over the internet, especially on Facebook, we would like to post a few facts and would like some answers:

Mary, what about posting a little about yourself, before you attack reputable breeders all over social media?

How many dogs do you own? Standard-, Miniature- and Toy Poodles, then still the terriers? Who cares for them during the day while you are at the shop, stalking breeders and make it your mission to close them down? Your house boy, yes, poor guy must look after your dogs and you claim to to be the Poodle Rescuer?

What about the fact that you intentionally bred Joyo to a female who was not even on your name. What about you who bred Joyo to another breeders females and ****d all the registration certificates including the neuter certificate of this same male?

What about the same breeder`s male who passed diabetes to all his progeny and now you spread the word that "GREEDER BREEDERS" does not do heath testing?

Please get your facts straight before you shame ethical breeders all over!

You should know that certain tests must be done according the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries in Pretoria SA. Should any of the 5 tests be positive, the dog (or livestock) will be sent back to the country of origin on the new owners cost or the State Veterinarian will euthanize the dog (or livestock) immediately at the airport

You only badmouth certain kennels / breeders in South Africa but what you do not know is that certain breeders or puppy mills as you refer to them really try to better the breed and has spent thousands and thousands of ZAR on importing fully health tested dogs, spending thousands on grooming, showing - things that you do not have any knowledge about nor will ever have

You are in fact the biggest BACK YARD breeder there is in SA but make as if you are a Saint!!!!!

Here is an example... Whilst Joyo was with the breeder, you never in 8 weeks asked the breeder how the puppy was doing. When you were contacted, your words were: "I will kill you if you sell my puppy" - do we need to say more?

Why do you only badmouth certain breeders/kennels in SA? Is the others your "friends"? Just asking for a friend...

What about the 2 Toy breeders in our area (Gauteng) who breeds any colour to any colour? How can 2 black dogs produce a litter of 4 and 6 different colours? Have you ever thought of that? There is such a thing as The Breed Standard! Feel free to google it. The health issues are beyond shocking - but NO, you do not mention those. Poor Toys age 8 months, completely blind (PRA), luxating patella, liver shunts, heart-murmurs, spinal defects, docking of tails and this is just to mention a few

Then the Miniatures who is bred in the southern suburbs in Cape Town, way to big for a miniature but is sold for 25K and up. Same health issues as the Toy Poodles and more. Hip dysplasia, pyometra in females, eutropia and again, just mentioning a few

The Standard Poodles bred in the Eastern Cape, horses is putting it mildly, they do not run, they gallop like horses. The same breeder hits dogs with the fist in their faces, has kicked other poodles to death whilst grooming - why don`t you mention this?

So where does the real truth lie for poodle breeding according your views? Its just one lie on top of the other and to give reputable breeders who does their outmost best for the betterment of the breed, a bad name

Again, just asking for a friend

What about a kennel in our area (Gauteng) who sold all their poodles to a backyard breeder @ 1500 ZAR each and now this breeder sells puppies for 25K as pets? This makes no sense at all but we guess you understand this. It will not surprise us if these GREEDER BREEDERS gives you an kickback in cash! Again, you do not mention this breeder

How many litters did you really produce who is unregistered for you are not registered at any institution as a breeder BUT you always have puppies available and telling individuals that it is rescues :-) Ridiculous! We hope you believe yourself

Spreading the news on social media that people breed for an income only. Please do your homework before spreading **** news and those who live in glass houses should not through stones!

The poor dogs who lives under your roof and outside has our deepest sympathy

We truly hope this writing gets to you!

Remember one thing, the wheel turns
