Rocco seemed healthly but was very shy and hid when seeing other dogs but was very affectionate and non-aggressive. He died at 8months when he had what appeared to be a brief seizure followed by a heart attack. Our vet concluded that it must have been some type of congenital problem.Jennifer Skinner has not honoured her contract even after saying she would do so. She has constantly stalled by saying that she would provide the refund once she sells her next litter but this has been going on for 2 years and now she has changed her contact info so I've lost touch over the last 3 or 4 months.
(Editor's note: The sire Zagor, born
March 3, 2003 and used as a stud at only 12 months of age, is from Cane Corso West.
This has been noted because the above feedback discusses health issues and both
the sire and dam are responsible for the genetic makeup of the litter.)

We are fortunate that our girl has shown no signs of any health problems (but that doesn't mean she isn't a carrier or that they cannot present themselves at anytime). But Jennifer Skinner knew that there were serious health issues in the bloodlines and that her ex-partner Angela Canning was experiencing high rates of epilepsy in her litters. We haven't nor will we ever receive the promised registration papers either. Jennifer also tried to cover up the fact that a puppy ( owned by Gerry Gravina)from the same litter died unexpectedly. She only admitted it after Gerry and I met at a dog show and he and his wife told us their story. She is not to be trusted - she lied about health testing and issues and the paperwork. She is in it strictly for money and nothing more. NOT RECOMMENDED - STAY AWAY FROM THIS SO CALLED BREEDER!!!

Diesel has cherry Eye and only one of his testicals decended we never recieved papers for him and therefore cannot register him.
Jennifer Skinner was the breeder who sold us Diesel. She gave us a health guarntee and then disappered. She has since sold her dam from this litter jetta. Beware of this breeder.
(Editor's Note: We have asked
Ms. Cavanagh to provide us with the name of the sire, along with her telephone number.)

I too purchased our dog from Jennifer Skinner back in August. We believe that the dog that we origianally said that we wanted wasnt the one that we finally got, but we are very happy with our dog and now wouldn't trade him for the world!
He was supposed to be microchipped never was, we called and called and then they moved and we got no where. We also never got papers that we asked for. But I did recently see her latest ad on www.livedeal.ca selling more dogs.
At first when we were waiting to get our dog both my husband and I had a funny feeling that she was going to take off and that we would never get our dog. But After calling everyday and being very persistant we thankfully got our dog.
Back in October when our dog was about 4/5 months old he got what is called Cherry Eye. To get it fixed it is a surgery procedure that costs I think about $300.00. We got it done once but it didn't work and now his other eye has cherry eye as well. The dog is to have a 2 year health guarantee..???

Jennifer came across as very knowledgable and we spacificly asked for a show quality, female puppy.
She is healthy so far, but we have found that many of her pups are not so lucky.
At this post, April 4, 2007, we still have no reg'n.papers for her, and again we find that this is typical of her.
We would appriciate anyone who has bought a puppy and had similar experiences to contact us, so we can decide our best course of action.
