Erin - wanted to add - you looked GREAT! You looked so natural and beautiful in front of the camera! And your gliders were SUCH adorable hams! You really did a great thing for our entire community, and pulled it off with STYLE!

Can NOT thank you enough!

clap Glad someone has spoken to the media - now maybe we've cut down on more helpless gliders sold to unfortunate buyers -

We've (breeders) have tried to hard n too long to make r gliders strong n healthy -

hopefully someone that looked at the news will take heed n find a local breeder n buy from them -

I just posted the link to my facebook page!

By the way, up until about 2 months ago their BBB rating was D+. Then they changed their name or something and got to start all over with a fresh and shiney new A+!
It just makes me wonder about the credibility of anything the BBB says if you can just change like that...maybe it would be something worth writing to them for!

I know you can't start with an A+ rating on the BBB. With my own business, I have an A- rating. When I inquired about it they said it's solely because of the amount of time my company has been in business. (October will be 4 years!) The other thing with the BBB ratings is that it's very hard to bring someone's rating down. When you file a complaint, there is an actual investigation process. You file, they allow the other company to file a rebuttal and then they want documentation to back up your allegations. Otherwise, they dismiss your claim. I think the problem with these guys, is that no one really has documented proof to provide against them. Just yet another reason to promote necropsies and vet reports!

Their web site indicates their membership in the BBB only began earlier this year (April 2010 I think). I believe they may have been members under another name perhaps Perfect Poket Pets (with correct spelling) but now are calling themselves just Poket Pets so any old reports vanished.

We need more folks that are hooked by their sales tactics to make formal reports to the BBB.

Everyone with FB needs to post this link. The more we get it out there the better!

Erin, I agree with Alden. You did a beautiful job and wow, what sweet looking babies you have!

Is GC not allowing a link to the story? I mean the news paper article?

Anita, you know very well that GC does not allow links to news sites because of the other links from there that lead to very non G rated items. It has been this way on GC for years.

If the link went ONLY to the article, then it would be allowed.

Easiest way to find it is Google "CBS Tampa" The station's web site is the first on the list. The story is listed in the "Most Popular" list on the lower half of the page.

Nice job on the interview, Erin.

No Dancing, I didn't know. I've never tried to post a link to a news site. I wasn't trying to be disrespectful. I was just asking for clarification. TY for clearing that up for me.

Thank you all for the amazing support! I didn't expect this type of reaction. I actually did it because I couldn't take hearing these animals die anymore.

My vet tech has been sending the victims to me and it breaks my heart EVERYTIME. Also, if I wouldn't have had gliders, I would have been scammed too.

I TOTALLY understand why GC can't post the links to this story. I know that they support what I was trying to do (at least I hope smile There were other stories connected to that news link that were inappropriate for minors.

So, Linda from the mill breeder Project is going to post the links to both the print and the video on her site. You can now find both at:

http://millbreederproject.com/

I hope that everyone will keep in mind that I am really no body special. Just someone who loves these animals and want to put a stop to them dying for no reason.

When I heard they were here, I just called all of the local news stations and the mall administration that they were at to complain. I was also going to call the local papers. IT ONLY TOOK 2 PEOPLE TO CALL THE NEWS AND COMPLAIN AND THEY DID THIS STORY. 2 people. That is it.

WE CAN ALL DO THIS. WE NEED TO ALL DO THIS. Don't stand by and watch. Forward these links to the malls and news channels and news papers in your area. Show them there are issues that will cause bad publicity and news worthy stories.

Again I can't thank you enough for your support and I am sorry for all of you who have to watch me on you facebook (I think that was the fastest makeup job ever!)

Girl you were amazing and beautiful! Thank you so much for making the call and allowing the news crew inside your home to get up close & personal with you and your gliders mlove Seems like editing was on spot! Love that they also mentioned how long you've been into gliders ~ ups the credibility scale in my opinion.

Who is that gorgeous baby on your arm in the photo leading the story? heart More! More! (I'm snooping your posts for pictures now roflmao)
