The consumer has notified our office they are not satisfied. Your company has made a good faith effort in an attempt to resolve this issue; therefore we are closing the case at this time.

Last year I bought a "Giant" malamute from Sarah. He was one year old today. Hes eaten Taste of the Wild since I got him.I free feed him so he always has food available to him.At one year he weighs exactly 100 pounds. He's no giant malamute, just a large standard. I could have driven across town to get a standard and saved a thousand dollars. Hes my fifth malamute and the smallest by far. The next smallest was 117 pounds at 1 year.. Someone needs to teach Sarah what a giant malamute is.
These people use various names, they breed 30-40 litters annually. They breed females at 6-7 months and keep them pregnant. They do little to no vetting. They wean their pups at 4-6 weeks and any ETHICAL breeder (who says maybe will breed one or two litters a year) will not wean until 10-11 weeks. Anyone who files a complaint or calls them on their 'practices' is screamed at, threatened and so most people just walk away.
The dogs live in squalor, currently on land in the middle of nowhere outside of Snowflake, Arizona. Small enclosures for adult dogs...male/female together. Puppies are sick and they make them look like they might have a 'normal' existence...they do NOT. People that buy from puppy mill breeders and who do not check out the facilities are ignorant and to blame as well. U.S.D.A., is suppose to regulate and license any puppy mill breeders and this breeder is NOT licensed.
She is very nasty spirited and screams and rants and raves and even believes the crap she rants about...such as being THE best breeder of Giant mals and even going so far to feeling she singlehandedly is saving the Malamute breed. She is not a breeder of ethic with the AMCA and given that multiple male dogs tie with the same female it begs to be asked if any of her alleged AKC registerable dogs ARE. Although you can get a P.A.L. number through AKC with only photos that show the dogs look like the breed..
She also alleges that she has many service dogs that she's bred and trained, but given the dogs live in 5 x 5 enclosures, are not very healthy and always breeding, producing pups, not sure how she can say this. But she does.
He is another interesting character...rants about God is on his side and he lives for God...but he has quite a criminal pass that is public knowledge.
They love to threaten people...defamation, class action, slander...they will sue you for breathing, so they threaten. Stay clear of them. If you want an amazing MALAMUTE, go to a RESCUE...rescues, pick up the pieces of these poor creatures that live like this and then are thrown away....
I have spent hours doing the research and first of all Michelle cannot provide one single vet bill other than the $700 bill where she EUTHANIZED her own puppy because she’s a nurse and she gave her puppy A human growth steroid called Prednisones which she would not admit to the vet what she did ; all the while Marcy at legends decided to help do a rip off report on the Kelly’s because she saw this as yet again an opportunity to go after them for whatever reason anyone in Malamutes has watched her ripped breeders apart for years and do rip of reports it’s her MO, The person who actually bought the dog had taken it to a wellness check and had it vaccinated for Parvo ( which you don’t do if you dog just spent 3 weeks recovering from parvo in somerset Kentucky) verifies with vet it was treated and the Kelly’s paid for the treatment for the pup not the puppy owner not this Michelle either. Verified pup was perfectly fine during that weekend that owner At some point after vet visit Thursday met up with Michelle where she gave it steak and the human growth steroid to give her to put weight on the puppy by Monday that Puppy was foaming at the mouth she did not want to admit that she had been administering human medication as she is a nurse so instead she euthanized the dog—Yes YOU READ THAT CORRECT EUTHANIZED! So after all the money that Kelly spent on trying to save this puppy she went ahead and had it put to sleep claiming it had parvo ! but she did not claim was that she had no interaction with the Kelly’s during the procedure of buying the dog whatsoever it was not her dog she has no bill of sale she has no contract she has no pictures of the dog she has no videos of when the dog was in Kentucky or when the dog was in hospital in Kentucky or videos that were sent to the owner because she had nothing to do with the purchase what so ever. A complete stranger to the Kelly’s and the transaction however the owner did know what was going on with the dog and was sent video and pictures she was offered several different puppies and was asked to please pick another puppy because she did know the outcome of what would happen with that particular puppy. The person who was the owner refused to pick another dog that she wanted that particular dog for her two-year-old . Unwilling to change her mind to pick another puppy and skeptical of the Outcome offered her another dog she offered her money back she wanted the dog and said her mother was a nurse and if the Kelly’s were capable of caring for that pup so was she. The Kelly‘s went ahead and sent her her dog and told her if anything should happen they would replace the dock for her in the future . The USDA was called by Michelle the BBB was called By Michelle and the Attorney General office all trying to get the Kelly’s in trouble. Basically no case found in fact they couldn’t understand what her problem was. She was offered a replacement pup for free until Michelle went to Marcy at Legends and got her involved which was none of her business nor the business of her kennel. She just saw this as an opportunity to slander another breeder. The Kelly’s had refunded the money for the pup refunded the money for the puppy paid for the transportation paid for the vet bills in Kentucky. Michelle was upset because she couldn’t get her money back for euthanizing puppy that didn’t even belong to her end of story.
We have been watching this slander page on Facebook ran by Stacy Day Eric Grenda Karen Hansen of www.biewerworld.com and Rocky Mountain Malamutes she calls herself now you can find her along with several other breeders who decided to jump on the breeder slander band wagon with Barbara Joy who on Facebook is Barbara yoj and Amanda Hatch who is buddy bubby with guess who folks Marcy at legends Malamutes. And another Marcy buddy Breeder Loretta Lynn Roach The one who is always going after the Kelly’s. You can find records of that going back to 2010 , she is known for that look what she did to Vicky Demming, long story is that Sarah and Stacy were actually very good friends- The page on Facebook it’s complete bullshit you can’t even write on there and dispute anything because they only allow people who write negative comments I’ve been to every single one of their kennels I can tell you right now that I know for a fact that Terri Franklin used to be friends with all of them including friends with Sarah until she started doing drugs and drinking and Sarah used to get screwed over by all those people carry Franklin got her eyelashes done for free at Sarah‘s property. Basically Terri Franklin got away with getting a free dog she was supposed to groom the dogs she shaved 2 and was fired because she was always strong out and driving drunk . Again someone who ran to Marcy and Marcy used her to bad mouth Sarah. I know all of them and I haven’t said anything I own a kelly dog and I am willing to stand up
Kelly's / Snowflake Giant Alaskan Malamutes in nothing more than a Puppy Mill. If you do your research online you will find all the evidence you need . They have several ways of fooling people with there self pity stories they tell others about there past with other breeders bashing them. That is nothing more that there way of making you feel guilty for them . Don't fall for it , there story of there dogs get shot in Kentucky was really about there dogs getting out and chasing cattle on there Neighbore's farm , killing there chicken and almost killed a calf before the landowners stop them . There main income is selling these puppies that they keep breeding female after female! There dogs live in tiny enclosed kennels with two in each one , male and female so they can breed when they come in to season . They will not let anyone come to there property to see how there dogs live they insist on meeting the buyers or ship them out . Beware of these breeders: Sarah Robertson kelly and Kirk Schmuck kelly .
Loretta Lynne Roach of Mountain Ridge Alaskan Malamutes on Facebook breeds her dogs at 8 months and kills her dogs entire future. Just go to the AKC and look up her Registrations on litters. So does Karen Hansen at Rocky Mountain Biewer Terriers and giantalaskanmalamutes.com and she breeds every other breed of dog too.
Please do not be fooled by this report. The case was closed because we were not going to agree with no refund of vet. Bills and the Kelly's would not refund. The BBB has no legal power but are mediators and they referred us to the Attorney General of Kentucky. The Kelly's did not try to resolve this issue.
Simple Michele , post bill of sale with your name, your sales transactions, your receipt for buying one of our pups? You show any evidence of picking a puppy video or email or anything to do with buying a dog, your account was dismissed by BBB Attorney General and USDA did visit us and said the same thing sorry you euthanized your pup trying to find one you gave it human growth steroid and you were told not too, and your daughter or in law whomever she was had a wellness check and had her vaccinated for Parvo on the Thursday! Sorry Liar! Your sorry didn't hold water and neither do you , puppy killer! Also No one buys a ALASKAN MALAMUTE for a 2 year old! GROW up, your a complete utter liar! Aren't you a Nurse who isn't suppose to dispense prednisone to a dog? Trying to hide that and feeding her steak , you killed her trying to beef her up like a body builder! Same on you!! Puppy Killer
We as a family had decided to find a new family member for my granddaughter's 2nd birthday and agreed upon an Alaskan Malamute due to there gentle nature. We went on a local search and found there were not any breeders in our area so we turned to the internet. In our search we found Kelly's alaskan malamutes and contacted them. Unfortunately for us, we take people at their word and are very trusting, which made us a perfect fit for Sarah Kelly to deceive us, commit fraud and leave us explaining to a 2 year old why her puppy she had for 5 days and fell in love, named Pie (as that is how she said puppy) with was no longer alive.
Every fact I am about to describe in this email is in fact documented and completely true. On 3/4/14 Sarah Kelly received a health certificate for ""Pie"" a beautiful female alaskan malamute that had already grabbed our hearts with pictures and videos.She was due to fly to our home on 3/7/14 but did not due to an illness. We were told that the puppy came down with Giardia and a secondary infection and was given anitbiotics for treatment. During many text messages we were never told the truth about the illness the puppy was being treated for and was directly asked about Parvo and it was denied by Sarah Kelly and she actually even stated in a text, ""If it was parvovirus, that's the best thing that could have happened to her above any other virus in the world because she can never get parvovirus again and never get sick again so I am not sure why you would be worried about that other than the fact that it can make them very sick."" REALLY? I am a nurse and I have never told my patient's ""Thank goodness you have gotten the AIDS virus or Herpes simplex virus, now you can never get it again. Congratulations!""
The puppy was shipped to us on 3/26/14, with the knowledge that the puppy was underweight and would need frequent feedings and we were willing to nurse this baby to health, believing she was much better and had giardia. She arrived and we took her to the vet the next day with the information that was given us. The day she arrived she was supposed to have her health records with her in her crate, but surprisingly they were not there and Sarah Kelly could not understand why they were not with her but she did have a health certificate signed by her vet in Kentucky dated 3/24/14. The puppy was taken to the vet on 3/27/14 and 3/29/14 as she was underweight and not full of energy, on 3/29/14 due to loose stools.
On 4/1/14, the puppy became nonresponsive, foaming at the mouth and having seizures. She was immediately taken to an emergency vet and numerous phone calls and requests, even Sarah Kelly screaming and yelling at the vet trying to figure out what was going on with this poor sick puppy. The vet here had a conversation with Sarah Kelly's vet in Kentucky that is documented and very telling of how Sarah Kelly takes care of her puppies and carries out her business.
The health certificate was given to Sarah Kelly on 3/4/14 but the puppies, not just our Pie, became sick and were treated for PARVO. This puppy then was returned with a cough and Sarah Kelly's vet told her she was worried that the puppy was going to break with distemper and was very sick and should not be shipped. The vet also stated she requested the health certificate back and had not filed it with the state but Sarah Kelly refused to give it back and as stated above was dated 3/24/14 and is quite obviously altered with a 2 inserted in front of the 4. The puppy, Pie, was euthanized on 4/1/14 and we were left trying to explain to a two year old why the puppy she had gotten attached to in the last 5 days was gone.
Sarah Kelly immediately initiated a refund through paypal but has since removed the refund after requesting all records we have. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BEWARE!
First off post your medical records here. Proof of parvo. Because that’s the first thing you spread all over Facebook. That a Pup was transported illegally with parvo across state lines. First lie. Please remember I have all your and Marcys messages and posts ! Trust me every one! Secondly. I told you to post proof. Elsa test. You went to the vet. You screamed Parvo Parvo all over the Internet!! Show a positive test. Easy ?! Show the blood cell count ? Easy. Or wait. Distemper now ?! Ok we will give you that for 5 minutes. Show proof. Show your medical findings. Your good at Note taking according to your records. What about vet records? Do you want to post those up here ? Would you like to post your signed contract. ? Would you like to tell the world why it is you claimed you have had conversations with proof ? But have yet to provide an ounce of proof ? Falsified documents ? From whom ? Why would another breeder publicly post information about someone else’s puppy transaction? What does it have to do with them ? Nothing. So when it comes to falsifying anything your credit is null. And void by using another breeder to ruin our reputation. Going to a newspaper intern to share your soapbox story. With zero proof !! zero. Because Michele you have none. I never sold you a dog. You never had one conversation with me about any puppy before after or during any transaction. You were not refunded money because it was not your money nor your Dog. Again I’m not sure where you came from but really you should stop trying write tales. Post your medical proof. Your some awesome nurse you keep spouting about. If I was in the medical field. I would be showing medical proof. So let’s see it.
I own two of there dogs. Healthy happy ! Always in contact with them, don’t care about this personally I care about buying a dog. Ok. I’m getting another! You helped me decide to further support them. We planned to wait until Matthias was two. After everything we have seen and read. I will put my money towards their legal fees to sue you nasty hags !
I have spent hours doing the research and first of all Michelle cannot provide one single vet bill other than the $700 bill where she EUTHANIZED her own puppy because she’s a nurse and she gave her puppy A human growth steroid called Prednisones which she would not admit to the vet what she did ; all the while Marcy at legends decided to help do a rip off report on the Kelly’s because she saw this as yet again an opportunity to go after them for whatever reason anyone in Malamutes has watched her ripped breeders apart for years and do rip of reports it’s her MO, The person who actually bought the dog had taken it to a wellness check and had it vaccinated for Parvo ( which you don’t do if you dog just spent 3 weeks recovering from parvo in somerset Kentucky) verifies with vet it was treated and the Kelly’s paid for the treatment for the pup not the puppy owner not this Michelle either.

This sounds just like that Lady Loretta Lynne Roach, did this to me. At Mountain Ridge Alaskan Malamutes.
Standard malamutes, not giants
Last year I bought a "Giant" malamute from Sarah. He was one year old today. Hes eaten Taste of the Wild since I got him.I free feed him so he always has food available to him.At one year he weighs exactly 100 pounds. He's no giant malamute, just a large standard. I could have driven across town to get a standard and saved a thousand dollars. Hes my fifth malamute and the smallest by far. The next smallest was 117 pounds at 1 year.. Someone needs to teach Sarah what a giant malamute is.

Barbara Joy of Luckydogrescue.org
Loretta Lynne Roach of Mountain Ridge Alaskan Malamutes on Facebook breeds her dogs at 8 months and kills her dogs entire future. Just go to the AKC and look up her Registrations on litters. So does Karen Hansen at Rocky Mountain Biewer Terriers and giantalaskanmalamutes.com and she breeds every other breed of dog too.

Prove this Troll
Simple Michele , post bill of sale with your name, your sales transactions, your receipt for buying one of our pups? You show any evidence of picking a puppy video or email or anything to do with buying a dog, your account was dismissed by BBB Attorney General and USDA did visit us and said the same thing sorry you euthanized your pup trying to find one you gave it human growth steroid and you were told not too, and your daughter or in law whomever she was had a wellness check and had her vaccinated for Parvo on the Thursday! Sorry Liar! Your sorry didn't hold water and neither do you , puppy killer! Also No one buys a ALASKAN MALAMUTE for a 2 year old! GROW up, your a complete utter liar! Aren't you a Nurse who isn't suppose to dispense prednisone to a dog? Trying to hide that and feeding her steak , you killed her trying to beef her up like a body builder! Same on you!! Puppy Killer

Garbage story Michele
First off post your medical records here. Proof of parvo. Because that’s the first thing you spread all over Facebook. That a Pup was transported illegally with parvo across state lines. First lie. Please remember I have all your and Marcys messages and posts ! Trust me every one! Secondly. I told you to post proof. Elsa test. You went to the vet. You screamed Parvo Parvo all over the Internet!! Show a positive test. Easy ?! Show the blood cell count ? Easy. Or wait. Distemper now ?! Ok we will give you that for 5 minutes. Show proof. Show your medical findings. Your good at Note taking according to your records. What about vet records? Do you want to post those up here ? Would you like to post your signed contract. ? Would you like to tell the world why it is you claimed you have had conversations with proof ? But have yet to provide an ounce of proof ? Falsified documents ? From whom ? Why would another breeder publicly post information about someone else’s puppy transaction? What does it have to do with them ? Nothing. So when it comes to falsifying anything your credit is null. And void by using another breeder to ruin our reputation. Going to a newspaper intern to share your soapbox story. With zero proof !! zero. Because Michele you have none. I never sold you a dog. You never had one conversation with me about any puppy before after or during any transaction. You were not refunded money because it was not your money nor your Dog. Again I’m not sure where you came from but really you should stop trying write tales. Post your medical proof. Your some awesome nurse you keep spouting about. If I was in the medical field. I would be showing medical proof. So let’s see it.
Awesome breeders
I own two of there dogs. Healthy happy ! Always in contact with them, don’t care about this personally I care about buying a dog. Ok. I’m getting another! You helped me decide to further support them. We planned to wait until Matthias was two. After everything we have seen and read. I will put my money towards their legal fees to sue you nasty hags !
Truth behind Michelle pitiful story
I have spent hours doing the research and first of all Michelle cannot provide one single vet bill other than the $700 bill where she EUTHANIZED her own puppy because she’s a nurse and she gave her puppy A human growth steroid called Prednisones which she would not admit to the vet what she did ; all the while Marcy at legends decided to help do a rip off report on the Kelly’s because she saw this as yet again an opportunity to go after them for whatever reason anyone in Malamutes has watched her ripped breeders apart for years and do rip of reports it’s her MO, The person who actually bought the dog had taken it to a wellness check and had it vaccinated for Parvo ( which you don’t do if you dog just spent 3 weeks recovering from parvo in somerset Kentucky) verifies with vet it was treated and the Kelly’s paid for the treatment for the pup not the puppy owner not this Michelle either. Verified pup was perfectly fine during that weekend that owner At some point after vet visit Thursday met up with Michelle where she gave it steak and the human growth steroid to give her to put weight on the puppy by Monday that Puppy was foaming at the mouth she did not want to admit that she had been administering human medication as she is a nurse so instead she euthanized the dog—Yes YOU READ THAT CORRECT EUTHANIZED! So after all the money that Kelly spent on trying to save this puppy she went ahead and had it put to sleep claiming it had parvo ! but she did not claim was that she had no interaction with the Kelly’s during the procedure of buying the dog whatsoever it was not her dog she has no bill of sale she has no contract she has no pictures of the dog she has no videos of when the dog was in Kentucky or when the dog was in hospital in Kentucky or videos that were sent to the owner because she had nothing to do with the purchase what so ever. A complete stranger to the Kelly’s and the transaction however the owner did know what was going on with the dog and was sent video and pictures she was offered several different puppies and was asked to please pick another puppy because she did know the outcome of what would happen with that particular puppy. The person who was the owner refused to pick another dog that she wanted that particular dog for her two-year-old . Unwilling to change her mind to pick another puppy and skeptical of the Outcome offered her another dog she offered her money back she wanted the dog and said her mother was a nurse and if the Kelly’s were capable of caring for that pup so was she. The Kelly‘s went ahead and sent her her dog and told her if anything should happen they would replace the dock for her in the future . The USDA was called by Michelle the BBB was called By Michelle and the Attorney General office all trying to get the Kelly’s in trouble. Basically no case found in fact they couldn’t understand what her problem was. She was offered a replacement pup for free until Michelle went to Marcy at Legends and got her involved which was none of her business nor the business of her kennel. She just saw this as an opportunity to slander another breeder. The Kelly’s had refunded the money for the pup refunded the money for the puppy paid for the transportation paid for the vet bills in Kentucky. Michelle was upset because she couldn’t get her money back for euthanizing puppy that didn’t even belong to her end of story.
