BEWARE! FLgoldens (.com) IS FALSE ADVERTISING AND NOT TRUSTWORTHY.
BEWARE! FALSE ADVERTISING AND NOT TRUSTWORTHY.
Our experience with Flgoldens (.com) (also operating as City View Goldens) raised numerous serious concerns.
Communication was responsive at first. After placing a deposit, we requested standard documentation such as veterinary exam records, confirmation of the pedigree & the parents of our dog, and basic AKC documentation. Once we asked for this, communication abruptly stopped.
We were told the puppies had been seen by a specific veterinary clinic. We contacted that clinic directly and were told they had no record of the breeder or associated individuals during the timeframe provided. We also contacted AKC regarding claims about the parents and were unable to confirm the information given to us.
After requesting documentation, the puppy we had a deposit on was relisted as âavailableâ without any communication. Our deposit was refunded more than 24 hours later via Venmo, but no explanation was provided and we still have had no communication from the company since we made the request for documentation and information regarding the puppy we were purchasing.
We later noticed the business name changed on Yelp from Flgoldens to City View Goldens, along with a new website, while the same phone number remained. That number appeared under multiple different names, making it unclear who we were actually communicating with. We also observed publicly visible Venmo transaction histories showing repeated âpuppy depositâ entries and payments to third parties selling puppies at much lower prices.
Additionally, we observed dog photos being used to represent sires that appeared to belong to other breeders or sources, which raised further concerns about accuracy and representation.
Everything appeared legitimate until we asked for proof. We strongly encourage anyone considering this breeder to independently verify veterinary records, registration claims, parent dogs, and photos before placing a deposit, and to trust their instincts if something feels off.

They now have updated on flgoldens(.com) their contact # to a different number after have shown the contact numbers matching on the fake website. If they are being dishonest about the small things what else are they being dishonest about?
