Do you have a receipt from “IPATA” covering payment for a puppy or for shipping?
IPATA is an association of professional pet shippers.
IPATA does NOT ship pets; our members ship pets but under their own company name.
There is no legitimate pet shipping company with “IPATA” or “ipata” in their name.
If you see a company using the IPATA name, please report it to petscams@ipata.org
