| Ozzy Osbourn bought a yorkie at an auction If any of you watch "The Talk" then you saw this so I am writing it to those that don't watch the show. Sharon Osbourn is one of the hosts of the Talk. She and Ozzie attended an auction for HollyRon and Ozzie bid on and won 8-week old yorkie puppy. Boo to the breeder that allowed this. Of course I cringed when they started talking about this but then Sharon told the group that it wasn't old enough to bring home yet. Yeah to the breeder. Yesterday they brought the puppy out and gave it to Sharon. I'm not sure if she was to take it home or if they were just showing it off but I have written the show and told them that they missed an opportunity to educate people about puppymills and bringing little ones home too soon. |

| I heard the pup was a rescue and their bid was the highest at the event. Once they heard the puppy's name was Ozzy they had to have it. So sad though that this pup and most likely its mother and siblings were rescues. |

| I adore Sharon Osborne..but at least they did have to wait until the puppy was old enough to leave its momma. I would love more on this story..

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Good for you for contacting them. I'm beginning they are telling the public a politically correct answer. Their first story was the dog was a rescue, and now it has a concerned breeder who insists it stays with its mama. Doesn't that concerned breeder or rescue understand a dog should not be an impulse purchase. Sharon has many other dogs, and a concerned breeder would want to know if the dog was a good fit. Concerned breeders and rescues want every puppy placed in a permanent home, not a temporary home. http://www.peoplepets.com/people/pet...512650,00.html
