Our Latest Success Story: Alley
Shortly after Dianna Ridge met and fell in love with her husband, the couple made a big move to North Carolina. Then they decided to expand the circle of their love. “We knew we were meant to be together,” says Dianna, “and we also knew that adding a dog to the family was the next step.”Their search took them to their local humane society in Charlotte, where Dianna’s husband hit the jackpot.

To Whom It May Concern:
My wife and I recently purchased a pet from a breeder in Peach Bottom, PA. We had no idea what a puppy mill was until we brought our puppy home. Three days later the puppy was very sick. She was in a 24 hour care facility in Linwood, NJ. She was suffering from severe Parvo Disease. The breeder we bought from was CC Pets, LLC (Former Known As Puppy Love Kennels). Her name is Joyce Stoltzfus. After research the past two days along with the agony of the health of our dog I found that this woman and her husband Raymond have been systematically killing dogs since 1991. They sell dogs that are sick. They avoided the law in 2005 by changing their business name. This allows them to sell more dogs and have people sue their old company. The state of PA tried to bring 171 animal abuse complaints against them. Some of them stuck but since this woman changed her company name she can still sell dogs. Also last year a judge threw out 82 of 85 cases against this woman. How can all of these people in the past year be wrong? She has cleaned up her property and the pens that the dogs live in. This is how she avoids those state inspections. If these inspections consisted of testing the health of the dogs you would find, probably today, more than ½ of her dogs are suffering from Parvo. According to the doctor taking care of Maya, he told me that his medical experience leads him to believe that the entire kennel is infested with Parvo Disease.
We also believe that she is practicing medicine without a license and actively committing fraud by faking vet information. I have proof of this. We have proof that she forged her so called Vet’s signature. When we purchased our puppy she gave her medicine and vitamins before we left. I have recently found that there is no such thing as giving a dog a vitamin solution. I have also learned it is illegal for her to give worming medicine.
I beg someone from PA to help us. I have contacted everyone on God’s green earth for help. This woman, since August 2006, has sold at least 5 puppies that I could find through searching that have come down with Parvo. Some have died and some haven’t. This disgusting and vile person will continue to do this to people until someone from the government steps in and says enough is enough. Dogs are people, they just can’t speak. Please help us speak for them. Help us speak for Maya. After five days of premier care at South Jersey Veterinary Hospital we had to put Maya to sleep. Money we are not after. We are after justice. My wife and I have been in complete distress since Friday. If you have owned a pet before, lost a pet or been involved with a sick pet you know what I’m talking about.
Take her dogs away NOW. Don't let innocent people like us fall victim. The numbers of her victims is in the thousands. Victims are people, not just dogs. If you can’t save the dogs, save the people from the suffering.
If you need to get educated on Joyce & Raymond Stoltzfus, all you have to do is search Google.
Sincerely,
Lewis, Stephanie & Maya Ostrander

I am writing in response to the
blog that was recently wrote from
Stephanie and Lewis Ostrander. We
too are now victims of Joyce and
Raymond Stoltzfus. We saw the ad
in the Baltimore Sun newspaper and
over the weekend my son Matthew
took his nine year old daughter
Emma to buy one. They bought a
eight week old puggle which Emma
named Zoe. The puppy died two
days later of parvo. Emma is
crushed over this, this was supposed
to be her Christmas present . We
thought we could correct the
situation and go out and get her
another puppy this week but since
the old puppy had parvo you cannot
bring a new animal into the home
for 60 days. I cannot believe that
this woman can get away with this.Please help us to shut her down, I have e-mailed the governor of Pa who is a dog lover and hopefully he will hear our story.
This has to stop and this has to
stop now. Chris Groh
story.
I'm writing because I just purchased a puppy from her as well and just had to take my puppy to the vet because she was sick. Turns out she has Kennel Cough. She's doing better now with the antibiotics she's on, thank god. I didn't know that this place had been under investigation for years. I just assumed that it was reputable because I have seen the ads for them in the paper for years. Please whatever you do DON'T BUY PUPPIES there!!!! I wish someone would have warned me before I paid for her.
