Additional Business Information
Additional Info
BBB's investigation revealed this company is not located in Lawrenceville, Georgia.

The address provided to consumers by the scammer has been used to mislead people into believing the company is a Georgia organization. BBB has been unable to locate a physical address for Chariot Cavalier Home and advises consumers to use extreme caution if an offer is made by Chariot Cavalier Home.

If you have attempted to buy a puppy from Chariot Cavalier Home, and feel you were a victim of a scam, please visit bbb.org/scamtracker and let us know. The information you provide may help others not be victims.

BBB's role in the marketplace is to promote and foster ethical relationships between businesses and the public through voluntary self-regulation efforts. BBB is a not-for-profit organization that works with both BBB Accredited and non-accredited businesses to help build a stronger foundation for customer relationships and marketplace trust.

We received a submission in BBB's Scam Tracker regarding the marketplace practices of Chariot Cavalier Home.

The consumer alleged that they paid $800 to Chariot Cavalier Home for a puppy and received a tracking number through Global Air. The consumer further alleges that Global Air requested an additional $1,490 for pet insurance that they could not pay. The consumer states that they were told the puppy would go into quarantine.

BBB asked Chariot Cavalier Home to respond to the consumer's allegations.

Chariot Cavalier Home did not respond to BBB.

BBB asked Chariot Cavalier Home to provide answers to the following questions:

1. BBB was unable to locate the required competency license for your company name in Georgia. Please provide your license information.

2. What is the telephone number of your company?

3. Your company address is the same as several "puppy scams" in BBB's database. The company names are Elegant Beagle Home, Handpicked Pomeranian and Paramount Beagle Pups. Please explain.

Chariot Cavalier Home did not respond to BBB.

So that BBB may provide the most accurate and transparent information on Chariot Cavalier Home to consumer inquiries, we sent our Standard Business Questionnaire for their completion and return.

Also requested were copies of any written agreements, contracts, literature, brochures and marketing materials used by Chariot Cavalier Home.

Chariot Cavalier Home did not respond to BBB's requests for information.

BBB provides the following tips when searching online for a pet:

Research any business and its owners carefully before paying any money. Check the company's BBB Business Profile at bbb.org.

If possible, try to pick up the puppy in person. Puppy scams depend on buyers trusting that the animals will be delivered to them.

Be careful about buying a puppy from anyone you don't know, and be especially skeptical if the price is much lower than normal.

Avoid wiring money or using prepaid cards or gift cards to pay for transporting animals. Instead pay by credit card in case you need to challenge the purchase later.

Research pet adoption requirements in your area. Get a good grasp on what fees, permits and licenses are required by your local government and know whether they should be collected by the seller or government.

Consider getting a rescue dog if having a purebred dog is not a priority. Generally, rescues are less expensive than purebred pets and often have fewer health problems.

Victims of this fraud can report it to BBB's Scam Tracker at bbb.org/scamtracker.

Advertising Review

BBB's role in the marketplace is to ensure the public's confidence in advertising and promote trust in business.

In BBB's general review of Chariot Cavalier Home's website, several advertised claims were found for which we requested written substantiation.

BBB's requests are based on these specific codes:

Basic Principles of the Code: Advertisements should be truthful, sincere offers to sell. Advertisers have a responsibility to have substantiation for all claims made and should be able to provide that substantiation upon request.
