One complainant said a puppy died after delivery.Earlier this month, the business signed a settlement with the state attorney general after 14 out-of-state customers complained that they didn't receive any animals after making payment or that they received sick puppies.
After the first round of complaints, the owner, Tammy Gilchrist, told the state she would comply with consumer protection laws.
