Senior Yorkie Talker | Yes We Deal With Her. No She Didn't Pay Us For This Review...lol Quote:
Hey there! Yes, we are currently getting our little girl from Kirista. We met her online in March. Let me just tell you I am very picky, ask alot of questions, research things and analyze them to no end. So the fact that she can deal with that gives her 100000% in my book. We were particularly looking for a baby that we could get in July/August time frame. We actually found her site online before she contacted us in regards to taking a look at her kennel. We began a dialogue and filled out the Adoption Application. She loves her fur babies. Doesn't sale to everyone that wants a puppy. As you are interviewing her...she is doing the same to you. Once you get a puppy from her, be prepared to be a part of her family. If something happens and you can't take care of your baby, her contract gives her the right to purchase the puppy back. She understands that sometimes things happen and people can't take care of the baby....that we found to just show true love and understanding. After we decided on her as a breeder and she decided on us as "puppy parents," we asked if a friend could visit her kennel immediately after speaking to her. She said sure and gave us not just the number on the site but her cell number. Asked that she just call and she will give them directions etc. Now, for us that was a big deal because we are not local at all. Even now, if we want a someone to stop by to see our baby, they are welcome to go. Her web site doesn't have complete pictures of her Dams and Sires and some may get discouraged by this or the assumption is they don't look the way someone would desire. She has plenty of photos to send. Yet, when she analyzes what type of face you desire your puppy to have, general size you are looking to get, color, temperment...she uses those factors to mate to hopefully produce what is desired. She does have to have other people in line for a puppy as well. It's amazing to hear her speak about which combo throws what kind of color, etc. We spoke to her about the area we live in and she is already getting our baby used to traveling etc. Crate training and potty training. Once we put down our deposit, we told her the name of our baby and she started calling her that from the time we picked her. The avatar that I have is our baby and her sister that were just born on April 4th. (our blog has some more details) We initially did not want to get a breeder that would not be within 2 hours of us. We had many contact us. We also were just adimit about not having our baby fly from TX to DC without an escort. We had a family member picking her up. Then when that was no longer a possibility Kirista explained to us that airline she uses is great and they walk the babies, etc. Matter of fact she had just sent a baby out here before we met her in March. She explained that this airline has people assigned to the animals and walk them on lay overs, take them on potty breaks...etc. That eased our minds greatly. Plus her contract is a "living document" so that is terrific!!! We asked her could we make a change and there was no problem. She has just been more than accomodating. I know someone thinks she is paying me...LOL...but no really. You all have NO IDEA all that has gone into this and how particular I can be. Yet, she is such a blessing and we are thankful. I'm very militant in my thinking process for what I consider large purchases and this definately fits. Maybe because I'm the daughter of a military officer and at the end of the day I think about my father digging in my behind about what he would do; what you should ask; what you should expect(gosh that infantry training...lol) Ohh and her husband being a man of uniform himself, helps in feeling even more secure with the cross country buying process.(not military but close enough!) Well, I hope this review does it for you...gosh I typed alot. If you or anyone else wants to know anything else, shoot me a PM. I'll be glad to give you my number, email, or messenger i.d.'s and we can chat. We have enjoyed her bubbly personality, that texas accent and just working with us on everything!!!
