The Humane Society of the United States has filed a lawsuit and is seeking class action status against the puppy dealer for allegedly buying from puppy mills and selling sick dogs to customers. The lawsuit was filed in Broward Circuit Court and claims the Wizard of Claws and its owners, Jim and Gilda Anderson, deceived customers by selling unhealthy puppies with genetic defects, internal parasites, contagious diseases, and cancerous tumors.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of anyone who bought a sick dog from the defendants within the past four years. One Maltese had to be euthanized within a month of being sold from the pet store. A veterinarian concluded that the dog had a genetic defect and that Wizard of Claws should not have sold her. Another pet owner spent nearly $13,500 in vet bills and specialist fees for her pet pug, Piglet, who suffered from a genetic skin disorder, cancerous tumors and other ailments.
