| How can I get info on the Breeder?? Hi All, does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can find out more about the breeder my puppy came from? I bought him from Brooklyn NY and all it said on the paper I got for him was his parents names and the breeder name. |

| In MD there are papers with each dog that SUPPOSEDLY go with the individual puppy in a pet store. The info about the breeder and state of origin is on that paperwork. The pet shop has to let you see that info even if they do not give the actual paper to you.. I must be having a brain (f**t) but I have no idea what DRA means. The registration stuff sounds a bit odd to me... |

| I went to google and typed in "Kathy White NY" and two of them came up with phone numbers. You could try calling her... |

| Also -- Puppy Boutique in Brooklyn, NY is IMO gets his pups from mills...He's got several breeds and several puppies (50 or more at one time) I had a bad experience with this place last February (my mother in law bought a male yorkie from them)...The pup had a heart condition and LP...She bought a lil boy from there...that next day brought him to her vet...He told her he had a heart condition and LP...She called PB and told the guy who sold her the pup and he told her "If you bring the dog back to me and don't tell anyone what happened I will replace your pup with 2 pups of your choice" She was heartbroken to return this little male boy, but she knew she didnt want a sick puppy She eventually got her money back... Kasey (my moms maltese) is from PB...He is 4 now and thankfully he is 100% healthy, always has been...She bought him from there WAYYYY WAYYY b4 I became educated on Puppymills...But Kasey is from a mill...I had his background checked out at nopuppymills.com Please feel free to PM with with any questions! Lots of luck Fran

| Well - Shame on me - I got my puppy from a Pet Store also. I got a little male Yorkie - took him to the Vet the next day and got a clean bill of health.....testicles dropped, good knees, good heart, no noticeable problems. The Vet said that she certainly does see a lot of problems in pet store animals - but said mine appeared to be perfectly happy and healthy. This particular pet store has been in Spokane forever - same owner. It isn't a very large store. They do a lot of grooming and sell pet supplies. And - they don't have a lot of pets for sale. Their animals appear happy and healthy and appeared to be well taken care of. They assured me that if the vet found any serious health problems I could return him for a full refund. Also - I do give them credit for this. No visitors in the store were allowed to handle any of the puppies or kittens If some one was interested in purchasing a puppy, they could handle it. The owners and anyone else who handled any puppy or kitten had to wash their hands - every time! Also, once I said I was interested in purchasing a particular pup - I was let hold and play with it... The store was busy, but the owners (father and son) spent so much time (45 minutes or more) talking to me about Yorkies and how to care for them that I almost wanted them to finish so I could take my new puppy and go home. They gave me numerous handouts - care - feeding - etc. and read through each of them with me and explained everything. The owner gave me a card and told me to call him anytime (even in the middle of the night) if I had any problem - even if the puppy wouldn't eat. They did give me a paper saying that the puppy is registered AKC and CKC. The paper gave information about all its vaccinations and when the next ones are due. The puppy's tail is cropped and it's dew claws have been removed. Before I left the store with it, it was taken to the back room - spiffy cleaned, nails clipped, and bows placed around his neck and on the top of his head. He looked good and smelled good and was ready to go. They did tell me that the breeder raised Yorkies and that this puppy's mother had had 5 litters and is not going to be bred anymore. Sounded like they had sold her puppies before. --------------- As far as papers - I'm am going to check back on that. On the papers they gave me - it does have the breeder's name and the names and numbers of the sire and dam. So - I will get back with them on this. I'm sure my Yorkie is pet quality. Looks like he's not going to be 7 pounds or less - they said they believe he will be between 5 and 10 pounds ---which is fine with me. He has a 21-pound Bichon who is already (in two weeks) his best friend - and a couple extra pounds won't hurt him. -------------- So - maybe I lucked out. I don't know why I bought him from a pet store. If I had thought about it, I knew better than to do that. I think it is because I wanted a Yorkie so bad - and had looked for quite a while - that when I found out they had two - I ran, looked, loved and bought one. Maybe, in spite of my stupidity, I lucked out and visited a store that is a little more above board than a lot of them are. I'll keep you posted on whatever happens regarding papers. I want to get papers - but really don't need them. My puppy is a pet and will be neutered when it's time. Carol Jean |

| How can I get info on the Breeder..Continued ... I have been looking on Busters paperwork and found that his parents had #'s next to their names. They are P26855201 and R07056305. Does anyone know what these numbers are? Then next to the Breeders name it says Kathy White USDA 43 A 443. Any of this make sense to anyone? |

| Puppy Petite Puppy Petite sells puppy mill dogs. I live in Brooklyn and would love to help you solve this mystery of where your puppy came from -- although I'm sure the news is going to be sad. If you'd like any help at all, PLEASE let me know or PM me. I'm very interested in shutting down that horrible place -- I, along with others, have been trying to for a while now. So if I can do anything to help you, please let me know.
