Hello,

In December 2017, my girlfriend and I purchased a puppy from Shake-A-Paw (Union, NJ location). The price ($2,981.49) was for a purebred Pomeranian. Our puppy is not purebred!

After several months, Louie started to show non-Pomeranian physical characteristics. The \'People for Animals\' Clinic (Hillside, NJ) and Louie\'s groomer (Westfield, NJ) have both confirmed that he is a Papillon/Pomeranian mix.

Someone is at fault, someone is lacking integrity... the breeder (Patty Johnson) and/or Shake-A-Paw. 

We\'ve done our research. We have a very strong legal case, but we want to avoid taking legal action.

SAP should\'ve charged us the mixed-breed price. Instead, we were charged the purebred price ($2,981.49). Our hope, our desire is that we receive an appropriate refund. We\'re not seeking the entire amount that we paid, but we are seeking a significant refund for being misled by the breeder and/or SAP.

We would like to meet in-person in order to reach an appropriate, and fair, resolution. We\'ll bring Louie to the meeting, so that you can see for yourself that he is not purebred. 

Looking forward to your response.

Regards,
Michael Miranda
