Buyer be Aware of who you are buying that "cute" puppy from?

[dianethomas]

Wow! What an interesting thread!
I had some "ah-ha!" moments, and some sad ones, and even a few LOL ones.
I had to laugh that this breeder totally told on herself, after the OP didn't name her.
What will happen next? Only time will tell.
Oh, and Wylie'smom? You are brilliant!

My baby is totally healthy as where the one baby I bought last year for big bucks from a Yorkie Breeder off an ad on YT died of Liver Shunt and this Breeder ignored me, she even proclaims to breed tinies and is always having pups for sale on YT. So why is she immune to all your attacks. I learned she has over 100 Yorkies, that are farmed out to people across the nation and they DO NOT stand behind their fur babies as I found out. But Sweet Yorkie Kisses offered me a puppy (no charge) after I told her what happened this was not even her baby nor does she have any connections with this other breeder.

I was at Sweet Yorkie Kisse's home on our last trip to CA 3 months ago and none of what you are saying about her is true. her dogs and all her dogs live in the house free. Sleep in bed with kids. They do not have crates but very nice exercise pens when needed to be seperated. So what is the issue with that since many of you crate train or crate your fur babies when you are away, at least hers have exercise pens when needed. Next lie is, she has never put an ad on this forum, I would have noticed it and called her. At times SHE SELLS puppies for her friends off her web site the dogs are not at her house she just puts them up does not breed them and any calls she sends you to her friend. BTW as for the SHELTIES, grow up here her mother showed them and yes it is true as that is part of what she has left of her mother like ribbons and trophies she does not proclaim to have shown them. She was proud of her mother and rightly so and can prove it my DH and I saw it.

How many of you have been to her house ? How many dogs did she have ? Did you just show up ? Did you buy one of her pups ? Did you see her get dogs from Mexico ? Did you guys go to the shelters with her ? Did you go with the AKC inspector to her house ? How many of you actually talked to her ? How many of you bought your baby from her ? Where are all these for sale ads ?

Why is it wrong for bible verses to be said many people do it. Why on earth would you bash that. Do we know what this lady's favorite food is so that can be bashed as well ?

If I was Sweet Yorkie Kisses I would be getting a copy of this thread, names and hiring a lawyer asap as this is very wrong to do to a person you have no actual proof on and a person that is not even on this forum. You do know right now the law is in her court right now and I sure hope she acts on it.

So anyone reading this I would think again before believing this thread of bashing on this breeder or any other. Best thing to do is TO GO TO THE BREEDERS HOME ! Then you can make that call on your own with facts and proof.

As you all start bashing me as I know you will you always do when someone comes on that has a good word to say to your victim. I will not see it as i will no longer even be a lookie loo on YT due to this unwarranted treatment of another. I have read many bashings you ladies have done on the innocent. Time to grow up and get your proof before you rip. Good golly miss Molly I have become another that has left due to the YT bashing queens with no proof to back their slander.

Remember you might be the next one to be bashed here so watch what you say.

Have a Blessed Day

WOW! I am amazed how new members come out of the woods to defend BYB or puppymill breeders who have been dishonest... and especially this breeder who has put her own foot in her mouth and cluelessly admitted what she does wrong.

[joeys mom]

Yea, I also find it funny when they crawl out of the woodwork and have viewed the site for so long, but never post until this!!!!HAHA Was it just me or did this honest person make a boo boo when she stated she bought a puppy from this breeder, then in the next paragraph, this breeder, so concerned for the way a YT'r treated this kind soul GAVE her a puppy.... Oh, please come back,,, I can always use a good laugh after a hard day!!!!!LOL Perhaps instead of warning us not to pass judgement on someone doing very questionable practices, you should be warning HER not to phone breeders and give her lifes history and business practices out....perhaps she should save that for you when you visit her again!!!

It does seem a bit suspicious when there is a thread such as this and all of sudden someone joins and posts that one post in defense of someone. It's so transparent and somewhat of insult to YT members.

Does anybody else find it odd that a woman who re-sales rescues for $100 - $2000 would give a complete stranger a free puppy just out of the blue and the kindness of their hearts?

I'm sorry, I just really find that hard to believe. Not that I don't think that there are good people out there. But this just seems suspect to me.

And as I have been reading this 11 pg thread, my own sweet Cricket is sitting on my chest (her favorite nap place) licking my neck and earlobe telling me she loves me the bestest!

And it saddens me that someone would use a rescue in such a deplorable way....

[PartPixie]

And one other thing.... I just purchased Cricket and she has LS. Will one of you lovely ladies give me a puppy when she passes??? (JK I am working with the vet to keep her in good health) :-P

I am fairly new to this forum too. Just reading the post about the breeder who is selling just to sell is sickening. My husband and I were looking to add another yorkie to our family so we went surfing the web this passed weekend. We found this add in the recycler who was giving away the yorkie for free! So out of curiosity, we emailed back inquiring about the ad. We received a response the following day. It sounded legit based on the email we received. The owner was asking questions about what we did, if we travelled a lot, how would we care for the dog, etc. We emailed back with answers to the questions. A few hours later, we received a response again this time this person was saying that we needed to send a $150 "transfer of AKC papers fee" and that he/she would pay for the flight of the dog and whatever else. He/she asked for our address, phone#, what airport we're close to, and that we send pictures periodically so he/she can see that their dog was being taken cared of. Well, this was when we got skeptical and emailed this person back relaying the message of "we just want to make sure this was not a scam" so we asked for other suggestions before we send the money. Never heard back from this person since yesterday.


I just think it's so sad and sickening how people take advantage of situations liks this!

[yorkielover4lif]

Is it just me, or do all these 1 and 2 post newbies "smell" like Melissa disguising herself by creating a bunch of fake screen names? With the exception of Mollys Mum (Parker) all of them are suspiciously from Ca

just saying

I bolded in red the part that is total BS. Good thing you were on the ball. You probably would never have seen a puppy and they'd be 150 richer.

Scammers are very good at what they do so ALWAYS ask questions and never send money via Western Union especially for some made up fee. I believe most sellers (legit) don't pick up the shipping - that's on your end....)

personally I'd never have a puppy shipped but know others have and it's worked out. I'm just not one of those people unless I had LOTS of dealings with them (like someone on here with a good track record)

You're better off networking with legit breeders - there's plenty out there that are honest - maybe not with the best puppies - but if you're looking for a pet only - try to make connections with people that have proven results and customers that you can talk to.....you never know who you're dealing with these days unless you do lots of research.

Wow! Way to go to welcome someone who is completely new to this forum yorkielover4lif. Though I completely understand your skepticism, I can assure you that my husband and I are not what you call "fakes". We have a beautiful Yorkie and her name is Kiwi. We've had her since she was 8 weeks old. Now she is 7yo. We were simply looking to add to our family. We shared the post because we recently experienced a scam this passed weekend. After reading several posts here, we thought it would be informative to share what we went through recently. Thank God whoever that scammer was didn't get anything from us. We don't have any information as to who this person was because we found the ad in the recycler and communicated that way. If only my husband could remember what the screen name was we can probably share this information here as well.

sorry, I was not talking about you We must have been posting at the same time. I meant the people who were defending this breeder

bty, I responded to an ad yesterday for an APRI female puppy and got that same scam I politely responded to the email :" How stupid do you think I am!" Scammers!

Also btw, welcome to YT

[jaysmart]

Actually that is not true.....First let me say I had no idea this site existed until I received a text message from the breeder asking me to log on here and tell everyone that I know her and her family personally and that she was a good person and a great breeder (I kept the text, just to cover myself, no slander) I text'd her back stating that I was not willing to do it because I infact do NOT know her and her family personally, here is my story............ As a military person I was in training and gone from home, at the time I had a beautiful maltese girl that we bought from a pet store in the mall in Escondido, my girl got out and got pregnant while I was gone. I AM NOT A BREEDER, nor did i want to become one. Boo (my girl) gave birth to 4 little puppies, who looked like maltese, I rehomed two of them to people I worked with but was sort of left with two others and didnt know what to do. Also let me say that after giving birth my girl turned mean, she started snapping at my son, my husband and i were pretty upset. I received a call from the Temecula breeder who asked me to bring the puppies to her to look at, we did. She asked us to "trade" our puppies for a yorkie, sounds silly, but we had a yorkie who was stolen from us in Hawaii 5 years ago two days after xmas, my family was wrecked, she was 6! We saw the yorkie and fell IN LOVE, we said yes. About two weeks later she called us to let us know one of the puppies died, and she wanted a replacement, I was beside myself, she wanted her yorkie back which we had fell in love with by that time, I said "sorry but no" she started quoting the bible to me and telling me her business was not doing well, i told her my maltese boo and the yorkie were not getting along and that boo;s personality had changed and i wasnt sure how to handle it and thought of rehoming her, she said she would take her in her home as a pet (PET!!) As weird as i sounds, we were happy to find her a home - NO MONEY EXCHANGED HANDS.....
Last week I received a text stating "your yorkie is a year and a half now, let me breed her" She stated that she lost a lot of her dogs to some STD, and that her business has suffered, I felt bad but I text'd "no my husband and I do not want to breed her, she's so little, but thank you" The next text was SO MEAN, she told me I wasn't saved and just flipped out on me..............I am still upset. She also then told me she had my female maltese "fixed and sold for $100" Many, many mistakes made on my part, many! But I am really upset about this whole situation and probably should not blog about it but i get the feeling I have not heard the end of this and basically I do not know how to handle this, again I AM NOT A BREEDER, I am just someone who loves yorkies and fell in love with the one I have as soon as i seen her because she reminded me of the one we lost. I since found out that the other puppy I gave her died, she claims they were genetic defects which I cannot dispute because I don't know enough, but I do know that the other two whom I rehomed with my co-workers are happy and healthy. I know I sound like a fool which I am not, but my behavior was foolish............I get that now.
The person who blogged regarding the home, I have been there, and yes there are no kennels, the dogs run in the backyard.
Today my baby is 18 months old, I think...........I was never given papers. Everything I am saying are just facts, as foolish as they make me sounds. I do believe she has a good heart, but I do not want to be harrased either.

[red98vett]

jaysmart - I can't say I followed your post as I haven't really been involved in all this but just want to tell you what you said was HONEST and sounds like you have a good heart....can't say the same for whoever you dealt with.

you said she lost alot of dogs to an STD ? Are you serious ? That's just shameful and speaks volumes about any breeder that could let that happen..... how sad for the dogs.....

I admit to being lost with the many posts (don't have time to read all of them) but to me every thing I read screams BAD breeder. If you can call this 'breeding' - sounds more the word should be dog 'SELLER' -

All the best to you and anyone else who has to deal with this kind of c**p. People who take advantage of others need to take a loooong look in the mirror - course they may not see a reflection but still.....

That was very brave of you to come on here and admit to your mistakes. I'm sure your story will help others.

She might be lying to you about the puppy dying. At any rate if she wanted to come back on you she should have had an autopsy showing why the puppy died. That is what I would tell her if she contacts you again.
