This is America. People can sue for pretty much anything. Do you feel you would accomplish anything by suing? It could be difficult to prove any damages. Would you consider asking them to give you a free visit to make up for your trouble?

She won't reply to my concern, so last resource can I sue?
I think it was very misleading and I paid 2k for the puppy.

If you win, I expect that you will have to give the dog back, or receive damages based upon the value of what you received, e.g., the toy... View More
