Donating YT 10K Club Member | I'm very involved on a biewer forum...I do not recognize that breeder's name. I'll cross post your thread... It's a sad fact that greeders have discovered these wonderful little dogs.

| Thanks! It is very sad. It doesn't take long for a breed to get in the wrong hands. It makes me really sad. I have wanted one for awhile and they are just tossing them out to auction like its no big deal.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | It is sad, the greeders are already exploiting a breed that up until a few years ago was almost unknown - they are quick to jump on the next money train!

| How / why does a dog end up at auction? Is an auction mainly a means for breeders or millers to bring in new stock? Sorry for the questions but I've been curious about this for awhile.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Generally they are called "breeders auctions" and you're supposed to be a breeder to even buy a dog. And, yes they are primarily for breeders to buy new stock. Though the ones I've been to never checked to see if you were a breeder or had a USDA license - anyone could buy a dog. But there are mostly breeders there, rescues and a few individuals buying a puppy.

| On one of the links (March 28th, I think) there is a picture of a dog...a white French Bulldog?...that looks seriously....wrong? for lack of better words. The dog's back legs are twice as long as the front legs! Surely that is not normal for that kind of dog? I feel sorry for all these little ones. No, I do not know any of the Biewer owners listed. I would certainly give them a good piece of my mind if it did! |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | This is terrible. The biewer clubs' rescues don't have the money it will take to rescue these many dogs. I wonder if they are getting the dogs for these auctions from Germany. Most of the U.S. Biewer breeders make their buyers jump through hoops--sad, very sad. |

| this is so sad. it has gotten to the point where I won't sell a puppy to anyone in Missouri. I would have to know you really well. I sold one about two years ago to a very nice couple who said they wanted mine because all the dogs they had seen in Missouri were from puppymills. I have worried over that little dog ever since wondering if those people lied to me,. |

| In Germany, they strongly believe in breeding the Yorkshire terrier with the Biewer terrier. First generation will produce the standard yorkshire terrier. An offspring from that litter will give you a split percentage in some biewers and some standard yorkies. These are called splitters. They carry the gene to produce the biewers. |

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | Most of the breeders I know, make sure that their puppies are going to real homes, not puppy mills. I think if any breeder knowingly sells to a puppy mill, they should be outted. I google earth every application for a puppy if I can't go to see a home, found a few kennels that way--and didn't sell any puppies to those folks. |
