From the DDBSA Ethics Committee:

In 2002 the DDBSA revised its ethics policy to be more proactive and helpful to our members.

Presently there are two ways to approach an ethical complaint. We suggest the following action be taken first:

1 - Notify the breeder or individual in writing as to the exact nature of the complaint. Be sure to state a specific time frame for an answer or a resolution (2 weeks, 1 month, etc) Send the letter Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested. Also send a copy of the complaint to the DDBS Ethics Committee for their files care of  Linda Pacioretty at  508 White Church Road, Brooktondale, NY 14817

2 - If there is no response or resolution to the complaint, we then suggest you write to the State Attorney General and the Better Business Bureau (included below) and when necessary, the ASPCA (in the event of abuse), in the state where the breeder or individual resides. We have provided state by state links for your use below. State your complaint and what you have done so far.

3 - You may also choose to write to any known advertiser of this breeder or individual stating your complaint, as some publications will pull the advertisement if they feel the breeder or individual is unethical or they receive too many complaints.

4 - You may wish to consult an attorney.

The DDBSA sincerely hopes the above suggestions will help you in the resolution of your problem. All correspondence is kept on file by the Ethics Committee. If you still have not received resolution, DDBSA members may file charges against other DDBSA members in accordance to the club by laws. DDBSA By Laws
