That sucks
I'm sorry to hear that. For a long time, I used to call Tony my friend. And a damn good one at that, or so I thought. I'm sorry for what has happened to you and to others (me included). The Tony that I thought I used to know, would have made it right for you. But, I guess you guys are right. He was another fly by night breeder/broker. I stood up for Tony on this forum once before and until this year, would have done so every time. I would have gone to battle for him. That's what I do for friends. But, I got screwed by him just like everyone else, only mine did not involve hets. Only a 4 year breeder loan gone bad and nothing but harsh words and the ending of a longterm friendship and empty promises unfulfilled. I live close to Tony, and have decided not to get involved in this debate. I have a hot temper and it would be best for both of us for me not to push the issue. I can tell you this, don't worry about looking for him at shows. He won't be there. No one will see him again at another show. That sucks too, because he had a lot of nice stuff, although finding out now, most of it was not his, at least not totally.
Let me add this. Pat Chandler is a Good Guy. I have nothing but respect for him. He was involved with Tony, but only in a very minimal capacity. The hets and any other deal that Tony did wrong, Pat was not involved. I think Pat has what it takes to go long term with this business. I wish everyone will overlook this ordeal and allow Pat to do business as usual. He deserves nothing less.
Anyways, as far as the hets go... breed them back to their babies. I would be willing to bet that they are het for something. He was not the best at record keeping. And as far as the pictures he requested for verification.... ROFLMFAO!!!!! Cmon, please!!!!
