| So mad.....have to vent In our local paper on Friday there was an ad my husband found for 5 week old Yorkies. I thought I couldn't have heard him right I looked myself and sure enough 5 weeks old!!!!!!!! I called and told this woman how awful I thought she was and that I have 7 week old Yorkies and they wont be ready for homes for WEEKS yet. Guess you need that MONEY real bad!!! Shame on you!!!! I looked this morning and now the ad says 5 weeks old yorkies ...ready in 3 weeks. I feel like calling her back and telling her, well thats a wee bit better.... Some people..... I just had to vent

| Good for you! You wonder what people are thinking! I wonder if she is just clueless about puppies? Maybe an accidental breeder?

| YAY for at least helping as much as you can, 8 weeks is certainly better than 5 weeks. Good lord I can only imagine how tiny Ava was at 5 weeks...makes me sad!

| I would want a young puppy of about 8-10 weeks , as long as it was ready to go away from the mother. I would juts to train the puppy myself. 8 seems a little young though. 5 weeks no way, good job |

| It is possible that the way it was the 2nd time was the way it was supposed to have been written..I used to work at a newspaper, and I saw how many ads were written totally wrong, and also sometimes, ads were told to be taken out even and they weren't...I'm not saying this IS what happened, but, it's a possibility.. |

Donating Senior Yorkie Talker | Good for you!!! We got Porsche at 6 weeks. The owner was going to sell her to someone so I'm glad it was us. Now I know not to send babies to their forever homes until 10 -12 wks old...but only because of yorkietalk!
