Investigations

BBB's role in the marketplace is to promote and foster ethical relationships between businesses and the public through voluntary self-regulation efforts. BBB is a not-for-profit organization that works with both BBB Accredited and non-accredited businesses to help build a stronger foundation for customer relationships and marketplace trust.

BBB received the following complaint regarding the marketplace practices of Supere Bichons:

I went online to find a Bichon puppy. I found a website from Atlanta GA. I first emailed them on July 1, 2020.i superebichons.com Their site offered 100.00 for added for shipping. I immediately send 800.00 thru my bank to kierablackwell01@gmail.com , also had sent 5.00 for a test run. I understood through all the emails that the pup would then be sent today July 7th 2020. I received an email this morning saying I needed to rent a 1400 crate for health covid 19 reasons that was air conditional for the dog. I sent 1000.00 ( supposedly the breeder sent the other for me). so now the pup was supposed to be delivered at 5:30 .. one hour before the delivery I received another email stating I need to send 1490 now for pet insurance to the pet delivery service. All the while saying the 1000.00 from previously would be refunded once the dog arrived and they received the crate back. And per the last email , I also would get the pet insurance back. I believe all this money is going to the breeders! I am getting harrassed to send the rest of the money that I don't have. now I am out 1800.00 and no Bichon.

Products and Services

BBB checked with Georgia's Department of Agriculture and determined that Supere Bichons does not have a license to sell or bred animals in the state. To check a breeder's license in the state of Georgia please visit http://www.kellysolutions.com/GA/petdealers/searchbyconame.asp BBB provides the following tips when searching online for a pet: Research any business and its owners carefully before paying any money. Check the company's BBB Business Profile at bbb.org. If possible, try to pick up the puppy in person. Puppy scams depend on buyers trusting that the animals will be delivered to them. Be careful about buying a puppy from anyone you don't know, and be especially skeptical if the price is much lower than normal. Avoid wiring money or using prepaid cards or gift cards to pay for transporting animals. Instead pay by credit card in case you need to challenge the purchase later. Research pet adoption requirements in your area. Get a good grasp on what fees, permits and licenses are required by your local government and know whether they should be collected by the seller or government. Consider getting a rescue dog if having a purebred dog is not a priority. Generally, rescues are less expensive than purebred pets and often have fewer health problems. Victims of this fraud can report it to BBB's Scam Tracker at bbb.org/scamtracker.
