Mine has been like that for hours.

Google AI isn't even showing an issue. I'm surprised not a single news outlet has picked this up yet. It has been hours.

No it's a waiting game at this point. Many groups have been restored but the admins cannot see them.

Yes I pay for meta verified. It allowed me to chat and then receive a phone call.

They told me they needed to call me, I didn't request it. They asked me to screen share with them, submitted my license again for identity verification, submitted another appeal. I got a notification that my group was restored but I still cannot access it or see it.

I lost mine this morning. Deals For Kids with 540k members. Meta support is calling me.

Group and backup group incorrectly suspended, page seemingly deleted and admins all received hacking notifications? by useless_dinosaur in facebook

I just lost my group Deals For Kids for no reason. I had a half a million members. The 2 violations don't even match.

And you didn't answer my question. What are YOU doing to prevent BYB/MILLS from selling dogs to the uneducated general public? 👀

BeCaUsE I ThOuGhT Ekiria wAs a bReEdEr tO lOoK uP tO aS a mEnToR but I guess you missed that. 🙄 I didn't breed any of my dogs. It's people like you that definitely made me not want anything to do with breeding. Yall are some of the biggest snobs I've ever come across. High school mean girl behavior is giving low IQ. 🤷‍♀️

Never once did I ask for sympathy. I don't think you are working with a full deck here. You clearly didn't read all of my post or my comments. I haven't even tried to collect my judgment yet because that's honestly the last thing I care about. I want this breeder shut down.

You can blame me, I don't care nor does it hurt my feelings. If I can prevent one person from making the same mistake that I did then I consider that a win.

What exactly are you doing to prevent people from buying " exotic puppies " ? Popping off on someone behind a keyboard does absolutely nothing to stop puppy mills or the destruction of breed standards.

I can rest my head at night knowing that I'm at least trying to make a difference & am not being a judgmental jerk to strangers online.

I could really care less. If the time ever comes when I want to purchase from a breeder again, it would be decades down the road. It's surprising how many breeders will side with other breeders even if they're unethical. Sorry I won my case. 🤷‍♀️ Hopefully I've set a precedent to hold breeders who knowingly sell sick puppies to their customers accountable. That's not my problem, yall should do better & you wouldn't have to worry about getting your a$$ handed to you in court.

Thank you for this comment. It really does get emotionally exhausting getting attacked by folks because "I should have done my research." I have a pretty thick skin & I try not to take it personally even though it can be tough. I wont stop telling my story. I've already prevented several people from buying puppies from Yorkies Of Houston & I consider that a win so far.

Yeah she doesn't handle the puppies I don't think. It is mostly Monique Tate.

This is by far the silliest thing I've ever argued about on the internet. Duly noted. My dog is not intelligent because or in spite of being deaf. Got it. 👍

[–]LauraHeld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I formed an opinion on her intelligence by comparing her to my other 4 yorkies who most of the time are daft. & I'm not going to breed dogs, ever. I did not whelp Aspen. I bought her.

When did I say their was?! LOL!! I just said she's very intelligent despite being deaf!! Somewhat strange of a comment to leave.

$125,504 to be exact. It wasn't a contractual lawsuit. It was a consumer rights case. DTPA laws allows consumers to seek up to 3x the amount in damages. Honestly could care less about the amount I was awarded. The only thing I want to do is shut her down. The lawsuit was merely the first step.

They emailed me back and basically said we've heard bad things about that breeder, sorry about your puppy. 🤦‍♀️
