The lawsuit, which alleged that Barkworks orchestrated a scheme to trick buyers into purchasing
sick puppies sourced from puppy mills in violation of California consumer protection laws, was resolved to the mutual satisfaction of the parties.
Whilst there is nothing wrong with initially
sourcing a breeder's details online one in five who bought
puppies online or on social media ended up with pups that were
sick throughout their lives or died before they were six months old, as too many people do not know what they should expect and demand from a breeder when they meet them.
