Pictured here is the real victim, his name is Petie. We feel terrible about what happened. We love him and think of him often. It’s so unfair.
We luv u Petie, where ever you are, a piece of our hearts are with you. 😥
DNA (Do not adopt for, release animals to, or transport animals to/for AIMEE E. TINDELL aka AIMEE BARKER – last known residence city/state of Huntington Beach, CA – IF YOU PULL FOR AIMEE YOUR PULLING PRIVILEGE WILL BE REVOKED. IF PUT ANY ANIMAL IN HER CARE YOU WILL KNOWINGLY BE PUTTING THOSE ANIMALS AT SERIOUS RISK!
Aimee has been under investigation for falsifying health certificates and forging shelter and vet paperwork as well as other unethical, illegal and immoral behavior like switching dogs and putting a similar dog on transport to unsuspecting adopter customer! She wants to be known as a rescuer but in reality she’s a dog broker, also knows as a “dog flipper”, known more for selling dogs than adopting them out. Below I go into further detail what she does to put her in that category and show proof of her being a broker/flipper. The reason an investigation was launched when Aimee was proven to have FORGED a health certificate and shelter papers that by the way had the other dog’s micro-chip number – Aimee even shipped a similar looking dog in place of the one the adopter client paid for and expected to show up, several states away! Which is taking a huge risk with that poor dog! Risking they might see they were delivered a different dog and ship it back, or take it to their shelter and she wouldn’t even know because the micro-chip # in the dogs neck won’t match the one listed on the papers she sent!!! and do you think Aimee cares? No, she does not care about the dogs or she would never do something like that.
Dog’s from the shelters and the streets many times have already been though enough hardship to last a lifetime, and if they’re even lucky enough to be rescued, and getting another chance at life, the last thing they need is to be further traumatized by being recognized as a different dog, rejected and shipped all the way or be dumped somewhere because of greedy Aimee. All animals are vulnerable but rescue animals are the most vulnerable. Some were found starving, sick and swarming with fleas after trying to survive on the streets, some were rescued in the nick of time from a high kill, high volume shelter, or from owners who abused and neglected them and I can’t imagine being able to just let them go to just anyone who paid me after that and be able to live with myself, and sleep at night. Really think about this, how vulnerable they are, how they’re completely dependent on us to take care of them and do what’s best for them, how they have complete and utter trust in us to do right by them, think about how unconditionally loving they are, and forgiving, no matter what their humans do to them, how all they want in life is to please them and be loved by them, to be a part of their pack, their family. Much like children and intelligent – as humans we have free will to make our own choices but animals do not, we make choices for them, what kind of person would take on the responsibility for that animal and actually care less about the welfare and well-being of that living, breathing, loving soul who has feelings much like our own, and taking it upon themselves to change that dog’s life forever and not care if they’re changing it for the better or if they’re changing it for the worse – to not care if they’re sending that dog to live a life of abuse, like being sold to a lab who tests on animals, or someone who’s just mean and likes to kick around and bully their dog, or even worse, a dog molester. What kind of person sells animals indiscriminately to anyone with the right amount of money? CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED THAT SEVERAL SHELTERS HAVE REVOKED AIMEE E. TINDELL-BARKER’S PULL RIGHTS AND SEVERAL RESCUES HAVE CUT TIES WITH HER. WARNINGS ABOUT HER HAVE BEEN IN CIRCULATION FOR WELL OVER A YEAR AND NOW THEY WARN IF YOU PULL FOR AIMEE YOUR PULLING PRIVILEGE WILL BE REVOKED. IF PUT ANY ANIMAL IN HER CARE YOU WILL KNOWINGLY BE PUTTING THOSE ANIMALS AT SERIOUS RISK!

This is a MUST read if you know or plan to work with Aimee E. Tindell, who FYI began using her maiden name of Barker when her bad reputation started becoming too well-known and effecting her pocket-book. and was last known to reside in the city/state of Huntington Beach, CA. What she’s done to this dog and others is not only WRONG in every aspect on every level but is also ILLEGAL. Please don’t believe her lies like we did at one time, and like other trusting rescuers have once done, not when the lives of vulnerable rescue animals are on the line, knowing all the animals she has hurt already. This is not some attempt to ruin the name of a decent rescuer. This is my experience with her and below you will read comments from many other people who’ve also had personal experiences with her. All these people are not lying, we are all animal lovers who just don’t want to see any more animals suffer at the hands of this person. Since Aimee seems very likable and so caring about animals that it’s hard to believe she might not have the best intentions when it comes to the animals, but she’s just a good actress, a good liar, a good manipulator who knows all the right things to say. I was even contacted by a family member of hers who tells me she’s addicted to the powerful narcotic pain killer Oxycontin, and when they told me this I said I thought that’s probably why she’s constantly getting evicted, having to move, and why she’s so erratic and impossible to communicate with, but, this family member (who requests identity remain anonymous) confided in me that she’s always been that way, that she’s a bipolar schizophrenic and has been for many years. Mentally ill or not, there is no excuse for victimizing an innocent rescue animals, who in many instances have already been been used, abused and victimized by humans. The dog she’d agreed to foster for me that she stole and (we think she sold and shipped to other state) had been homeless for months, wandering alone trying to find food anywhere he could, which from the looks of him wasn’t much. He would up in some apartments where there were lots of places to hide and a couple of people who felt sorry for him and would occasionally set out food and water for him, so he stayed in that area, and having never been neutered he ended up getting a residents female dog pregnant. While that was not the best outcome, it was the catalyst that set him on the path to rescue, for when the owner of the female reached out to local rescues with the story of the little homeless dog we later named Petie, who impregnated her female and would come to visit his “kids” often. Petie’s story and original pix can be found at this link: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.521264557913321.121629.276891389017307&type=1
There are dog rescuers and there are dog brokers; also commonly referred to as “dog flippers” or “pet traffickers”. The difference between a rescue and a dog flipper is that a rescue’s first priority is the dog’s well-being, whereas a dog flipper’s first , and basically only priority money – how they can increase their profit. A reputable rescue always requires adoption applications with personal and vet references and does detailed home checks as part of the adoption process. Before entrusting this woman with any animal I beg you to read what happened when she fostered a dog for me this year February 2013, as well as what other people have to say who’ve worked with her.

This is Petie at Aimee’s, look how frightened he is. Look at his body language, he sensed she was bad, I wish I’d have known.
Above, the dog photo you’ll see a picture of a blonde girl with bad teeth and an evil grin, that’s a recent shot of
Aimee E. Tindell aka Barker, then under that picture, directly above is a photo of our poor little rescue dog Petie on the first night she fostered him – did I mention how Aimee later denied being a foster for us or even knowing this dog, but you can clearly see to the right of the pic Aimee admitting she is FOSTERING him, you can also see the dates on all my documentation and can see that later when admitting she did have him (but acted confused and played dumb, saying the dogs name wasn’t Petie but Frankie or something like that) Link to Petie’s Facebook album:
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.521264557913321.121629.276891389017307&type=1the very night we rescued him and brought him to her home February 1st 20113. That night we decided to call him Petie, before that he was only known as the stray we rescued at the Norwalk Manor Apartments. Below her comment you can see comments from my daughter and I thanking her for offering to foster Petie for however long it might take to find him a home after she saw us sharing his pictures, saying he was homeless and that we couldn’t rescue him until someone stepped up to foster. We thought oh wasn’t that nice of her, never in my worst nightmares did we think he might end up being sold, or sent out of state and that we might never see or hear of Petie again, let alone that she would try to trick me out of a couple hundred dollars by using my love for him, knowing she might be able to use our love for him and desire to do the right thing for the dog and pay her the $225. to get him back. And she said we had to send it to her Paypal, then she’d let us have him back, but we didn’t believe she’d give him back. It sounded like she just wanted money. What Aimee did to Petie was so wrong on so many levels, not to mention what sad circumstances her fake health certificate’s and incorrect micro chip information she may have caused some of the rescue dogs with the misfortune of being “flipped” for a profit in the name of saving selfish Aimee a few bucks. Nothing like this can ever be allowed to happen ever again.
I posted a copy of this screen shot on my Facebook page (that had a red circle over Aimee’s comment) after she started sharing that she didn’t even know us or Petie, (see screen shot of it below) but someone must have reported it, because right after I commented an answer to a comment from Aimee’s husband the posts he commented on were removed by Facebook citing a violation of terms. Gee I wonder who keeps reporting my screen shots? It just so happens the other post of the screen shot was of her status denying in a flip way any knowledge of any dog or even knowing us. I think she’s only going through all that trouble because she doesn’t want people to see what I see, how at times she contradicts herself, at other times she just blatantly tells straight out obvious lies. But it’s too little late for covering her tracks, I’d already saved everything, and actually wasn’t even sharing about it on Facebook until I saw a bunch of lies being posted on her Facebook wall denying that she even knew us or knew anything about Petie. I was too blown away not to try to correct that dirty trick, it was just so wrong. I only posted it on Facebook to #1.) To explain the lies she was posting on her wall and tell our side – and #2. Because SOMEONE has to speak up for Petie. As his rescuer it’s my responsibility to advocate for him. What she did to him no matter what way she spins it, wasn’t right. She had no right to do what she did even if we were taking too long to find him a home or had abandoned him there, which we can prove isn’t true, it’s all lies, and I’m going to prove it. What kind of person actually thinks she could pull this off and that people would just believe all her lies about me. And how cruel to put money and herself above the welfare and safety of a poor little rescue dog who’s already been through hell.
This is the receipt from the vet WE got Petie vaccinated at (we took him for vetting, NOT Aimee) including rabies the day we rescued him, Feb 1st, the same day we took him to her home after she offered to foster him when we shared his pictures, saying we couldn’t rescue him until we found a foster. She offered. We had no idea what she was like. We heard a little negative about her and believed her story about it and didn’t check into it until we had our own bad experience with her. THEN I looked into it and found out that everything people are saying about her is true. That and much more. Please feel free to call the vet to verify since his name is written in by hand, (it was the same day we rescued him and we hadn’t named him yet, but by the time we got to Aimee’s we’d chosen the name Petie, which Aimee’s always misspelled like this: Petey) verify that Petie is the dog on the receipt, you can see the invoice number, the date and also that he got his rabies shot, client number, then in the next picture you’ll see the rabies certificate.She claims at first that never worked with us then claims the dog in these pics isn’t the dog that she did foster for us, but she wants to call it volunteering or something? She also said in her comment on my screen shot post of her Facebook status where she denies ever working with us, that she got removed by complaining about it, that she not only paid for all his shots but also claims to have paid for his neuter, but the truth is that even though I sent her via PayPal $55 to get him neutered, she insisted on getting it done for FREE at Pet Fix at 1714 E McFadden Ave Ste M, Santa Ana, CA. Call them at (714) 973-1840. Also to get it done for free it took nearly a month to get him an appointment, and she had the nerve to complain that it was taking me too long to find him a home, like she’s in rescue but doesn’t know that no rescue can make the dog available for adoption until their vaccinated and spayed or neutered.Then on the day of his neuter, which was on Feb 26th, (she had him only since Feb 1st) and she came up with this big lie about needing me to take Petie cuz she was going out of town on business, her husband Scott admitted that wasn’t true. His words were sheepish and spoken with a shrug and embarrassed look on his face oh, that was me”. After talking with him at length it became clear that he’d had no idea that his wife had agreed to foster for however long it might take to find a home, and blew his lid, and started pressuring her to give him back or find him another rescue. That was when she started giving us problems, all because she failed to ask her husband and he was saying NO. Why she’s lying about what she spent and those details I have no idea unless she’s just trying to make us sound bad. Even going as far as to claim that our screen shots and all our proof, messages and IM’s between us are photo shopped! And I’ve never ever as many years as I’ve been online have EVER photo shopped anything. I wouldn’t even know how. But she can’t say the same, in fact everyone knows she uses photo shop. She’s an editor and you can bet your bootie she uses her work tools to fake everything from health certificates to fake messages created by her designed to make the person who’s exposing her look bad. But the only person she’s making look bad with all this is herself. In fact I wasn’t even sharing about it until I saw she was sharing that these pictures weren’t of Petie, she claimed she never worked with us then admits she did foster for us, she claims she paid for things that we actually paid for and claims that she paid for things she got for free and ALL these things can be proven. Please don’t be fooled like we and the other people were, not when the lives of vulnerable rescue animals are on the line. Before believing her lies like we did, please just look into what people are saying. A little bit of research will tell you everything everyone is saying about her is true. That and more.
NOW HERE’S THE KICKER, SHE GOES ON HER FACEBOOK AND SHARES A DENIAL OF KNOWING US OR ANYTHING ABOUT THIS DOG, YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THE HUGE LIES SHE TELLS AND GET’S CAUGHT IN, ONE AFTER THE OTHER AFTER THE OTHER AFTER THE OTHER…
THIS SCREEN SHOT DIRECTLY BELOW SELFISH, COLD BLOODED AIMEE SHARES HERSELF LAUGHING ABOUT PETIE’S BEING MISSING, MAKING HEARTLESS JOKE THAT SHE LOOKED ALL OVER HER APARTMENT FOR MISSING PETIE AND HE’S NOT THERE AROUND as SHE PRETENDS NOT TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT A DOG NAMED PETIE OR BAMBI’S HOPE RESCUE THEN CLAIMS SHE HEARD BAD STUFF ABOUT US AND WOULDN’T “FOSTER OR FILL OUT AN APPLICATION FOR BAMBI’S HOPE EVER EVER” IN HER OWN WORDS! Then further below I put the screen shot of the ridiculous excuse she offers up when caught in that lie, claiming she was confused because she knows the dog as Freddie. Big contradiction when the picture she took of him the first night she fostered him, also showing her comments, which are shaded because her effort to delete it only hid it from her and her friends (that picture I’m referring to is above, directly below the picture of Aimee’s face) on his first night being foster with her WHO SHE CLEARLY BELOW WAS FOSTERING FOR US.
YOU’RE NOT LAUGHING NOW AIMEE. OH POOR AIMEE, WHAT’S THE MATTER? OH WELL, YOU’LL THINK OF A WAY TO TURN THIS AROUND AND GAIN SYMPATHY.
Above is a screen shot of Aimee’s Facebook status which is a direct contradiction to her side of the story, and these screen shots and messages you see here shows Aimee getting caught in so many other such contradictions and lies it’s hard to make sense out of what’s going on. Further on I will add other people’s experiences with her, I’m still working on gathering information.
Heartless Aimee to actually think this is funny, it’s just incredible to me anyone who would claim to love and rescue animals then be so flip about stealing a dog from a rescuer and holding him for ransom, thinking only of money as she heartlessly ruins his chance to be adopted into a loving home in the name of making a little more money off of him. And she also signed a foster contract for us, which in CA is a legally binding contract. Petie’s the victim here, but she’s trying to gain sympathy while she jokes about it. She needs to have her ignorant, uneducated, lying country bumpkin face punched.
The foster application Aimee filled out for us before we rescued the dog. I’m trying to leave out her address although it’s changed once since then – she moved one apartment complex away.
I added the screen shot of her status to my album of Petie, then guess who left a comment there then deleted it, AIMEE!! And it was so long the screen shots had to be taken in four parts. Below are those screen shots:
Aimee’s comment on Peties thread Part 1 of 4
Aimee’s comment on Peties thread Part 2 of 4
Aimees comment on Peties thread Part 3 of 4
Aimees comment on Peties thread Part 4 of 4
This email above is one of the ones she was desperate to get removed from online, because it shows her true colors. SHE WANTS PEOPLE TO THINK WE ABANDONED PETIE THEIR AND THAT’S WHY SHE TOOK IT UPON HERSELF TO RE-HOME THE DOG BUT OUR CONSTANT EFFORTS TO COMMUNICATE WITH HER AND GET UPDATES ON WHAT WAS GOING ON SHOW SHE ISN’T BEING HONEST WITH PEOPLE (don’t miss the last message where she tries to get us to Paypal her $225. using our love and concern for Petie to line her wallet with some more money from us, and at the same time won’t tell us where he is or give us a number where we can call. She was holding him for ransom.
KICKING MYSELF FOR NOT SEEING THAT ALL SHE CARES ABOUT IS MONEY!
THE WORST PART OF THIS IS THAT SHE HAS STARTED A NEW RESCUE!!!!
Aimee’s new rescue listed in her home, called MIN PIN NATION – recently renamed Min Pin Madness
NOTICE UNDER ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS HOW THEY DO NOT REQUIRE AN ADOPTION APPLICATION OR A HOME CHECK! BECAUSE IT IS NOT PART OF THEIR APPLICATION PROCESS!!!!
Oh now sly Aimee has done it again. She has removed their application. It’s okay, no worries at all, there’s more than one way to skin a dog flipper.
BE AWARE AIMEE E. TINDELL IS ACTIVELY SEEKING A “PARTNER” IN RESCUE SO SHE KEEP DOING WHAT SHE DOES. HUNTINGTON BEACH POLICE TOLD ME ALL WE CAN DO RIGHT NOW IS WARN OTHERS ABOUT HER. PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH ALL YOUR RESCUE FRIENDS AND EVERYONE YOU KNOW. TOGETHER WE CAN STOP HER FROM VICTIMIZING ANY MORE VULNERABLE RESCUE ANIMALS.
Aimee should be featured on the Worlds Dumbest Criminals. When she first started her dog rescue/dog brokering business, she STOLE the name of a reputable rescue that already established here in CA. Aimee didn’t put in much of an effort, like most people would, in choosing a name for the new business (or maybe she did) because it’s alot of hassle to try to change all the details involved in starting a business like filing DBA and starting a website and paying for the use of your .com every year and that’s barely scratching the surface of the ton of things you’d have to change. So to make a long story short, there was a real rescue DBA (doing business as) Min Pin Nation, as soon as this was brought to their attention, they had to serve Aimee to legally to stop her from wrecking their good name and profiting off of it in her extremely illegal, rather pathetically sad bid to lend credibility to her new cover for the business of flipping dogs for profit. This forced her to stop doing business under the stolen name, so then she AGAIN, changed the name to Min Pin Madness. She might change it again but we know who she is. If you pull animals from the shelter for and give them to her you could lose your pull rights like AMPS did. Don’t let her ruin your good name. I know she seems nice and is very likable very believable, but with the lives of animals in our hands we owe it to them to use every precaution. You’re changing their life, make sure it’s a change for the better. You don’t have to take my word for it, a little research goes a long way. *** Amiee later added the DBA’s Hurley Tailz and A Pupz Rescue to the mess of new names she’s using now for this “rescue”. She was also evicted out of yet another apartment because she has no kennel licence or permission from the property managers to run a rescue out of her tiny apartment.
SAME INFO IN ABOVE SCREEN SHOT IN A CLOSER SHOT:
And if you think all this is bad, it’s nothing compared to the cruel games she’s been playing with us since I wrote this. I’ll be writing all about it as soon as it’s all over. I’m not sure right not how this is going to play out, except that we’ll most likely never see or hear from Petie again, because all Aimee cares about is money. I’ll keep you posted.
…. Aimee made some changes since I posted the screen shots above. She’s trying to clean up her act a little, but she’s not actually a rescue, she’s more like a dog broker, albeit a severely psychotic one.
BELOW ARE THE DETAILS I LEFT OUT, BECAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS BEST TO JUST FOCUS ON THE DOG. BUT RESCUE PEOPLE NEED TO KNOW – THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN IN RESCUE, EVER!!! updated May 8, 2013 – still a work in progress … please stay tuned.
UPDATE: July 28, 2013 – SEE BELOW New Additions To Blog! More Proof AIMEE Uses Lies Trickery Trying To Fool Us All!!
Notice how the IP addresses are all the same, but Aimee didn’t always remember to always use the fake email address that went with each fake profile.
On this blog you only have to wait for approval once, once a comment from you is approved, all comments after that will be posted immediately without needing approval. So once I learned which comments were from Aimee’s fake profiles I didn’t delete them like she accused me of doing, I just un–approved them. I don’t want Aimee to use my blog for lying and tricking my readers, but I did take screen shots with the proof highlighted and the ridiculous underlined. Thank you.
OOPS, BELOW SHE MUST HAVE FORGOT TO USE A FAKE ADDRESS WITH HER FAKE NAME IN THE FIRST COMMENT, CUZ AMPS WOULD NEVER USE THAT EMAIL BELONGING TO AIMEE TINDEL-BAKER’S “RESCUE”. SHE DID HOWEVER TRY ON THE NEXT BUT FAILED MISERABLY, AS YOU CAN SEE. ALL OF THEM ARE FROM HER SAME IP ADDRESS. AT THE VERY BOTTOM I WILL POST SCREEN SHOT OF HER MOST RECENT COMMENT.
Aimee’s most recent comment here on this blog lost in the sea of the rest, so I took screen shot. She did use a different computer but she’s already caught from before lying and faking. It’s just too funny how she calls herself dumb ass. lol!
And here, the first emails to me she’s denying the email belongs to her, but then her hubby used it to message me in the circled email.
BELOW IS A DOG BROKER GET’S CALLED OUT ON HER FRAUDULENT FUND RAISER
Above you see Aimee was called out on her fundraiser – immediately afterwards she REMOVED THE VET’S CONTACT INFO from this fundraiser and the pictures. Calls after Aimee said the surgery was done the vet said they never did surgery for that dog. So Aimee lied. What she did and is still doing is criminal and soon a warrant will be handed down and finally she’ll be where she belongs, in jail with all the other drug addicts and thieves.
