Lauva’s Pygmy Cuties

She breeds Great Pyrenees when there are enough Great Pyrenees filling the shelters! We ended up rescuing 2 of her dogs that were headed to the shelter! Does she care… of course not, she is making money off the backs of the poor dogs she breeds while dogs are DYING in shelters b/​c of irresponsible breeders like Lauva’s Pygmy Cuties. UGGH! BACKYARD BREEDER at its worst!!!

I personally can not recommend this breeder. Now I must admit, I am experienced with livestock, horses, dogs etc. but only somewhat familiar with goats. We had a few when I was young but no significant experience to speak of. The first red flag for me was that many of the goats had feces on their backsides. Not just a few but many of them. The second was several of the goats also had runny noses which she stated was allergies when asked.
Personally, I chalked it up to she possibly she may have just stressed them in some way, wormed themed heavily or something along those lines to cause loose stool and the allergies sounded like a reasonable answer to me.
However, I should have listened to my gut because 24 hours after we brought the goats home, we came out to 2 of them no longer alive. The area they were in was very protected with no foliage or harmful substances in the areas. The only thing we fed them was what she gave us to feed them so they didn’t receive anything new.
We took them both to our friend who is a vet who later called and said it looked like she had not wormed them because they were loaded with parasites.
I informed our vet that she had indeed wormed them just before we left her property. He said they were just too infested. He said based on their ages and the level of infestation that she probably had never wormed them at all and that the worming before we left was probably the first time and there were too many parasites for that level of worming. These were young goats. He said with a parasite load this heavy, you would have to step worm the animal to prevent death.
She also breeds Pyrenees dogs and if her dog breeding is anything like her goat breeding, I wouldn’t risk it.
