| I'm so lost... Hubby made me sell J.J. this evening. She has been biting at my son and he felt it was best for everyone if she just went back to her breeder. My son was just playing on the floor and she came up and snapped at him. My husband said No Way. So I called the breeder and she said she may have done that because of another home she was in there was a small boy and she thinks he was mean to her. I wish I would of known then I never would of taken her here and put her through this. It was obviously stressing her out. I couldn't do that to her. She was close to us but I think she missed the breeder. When she came to get her she got all excited and ran to them and gave tons of kisses. I know she is going to a good home. I still hurts me though. I haven't cried that hard in a long time. I feel so bad but I know deep down that's really what J.J. wanted. Okay....I can stop being a baby now.

| you did what is best for the puppy and for your son. this is one of the reasons i don't sell my puppies to families with small children. you just never know how the puppy is going to react. |

| I think that you did what was in the best interest of JJ, as hard as it was. IMO, this was really an unfair situation--the breeder should have been upfront and honest and given you ALL the information regarding poor JJ's past. |

| I am so sorry. JJ is still very loved, and probably much happier where she is now. You will be in my thoughts while you endure this pain for a short while.

| I'm sorry you gave up JJ. Did you by any chance contact a behaviorist to see if they had any ideas on how to possibly correct the situation? I know a family in a similar situation who hired a behavorist and only allowed the baby and puppy in the same room together while during supervised training, ect. It has worked out very well for them and the dog does not snip at the baby anymore. |

| I feel so bad for you but it was the right decision. Your breeder should have told you about her background before you invested your heart in your little girl. Not all but many yorkies do not like children and harm could have come to your child and your yorkie could have been impounded by animal control if she bite a child. Hopefully your breeder will find an experienced home for this little one and explain the situation so no further harm can come to her.

| You did what you felt was best in your heart, and that's all anybody can ask.

| I'm sorry I know how hard that was for you. I too believe the breeder should have told you that piece of information up front, especially knowing you had a young son. Sound like JJ is very comfortable with her so I hope she keeps JJ.

| You are a good mother to both your son and your puppy. It takes a good heart and courage to do what you did. Maybe consider a larger puppy. Like a golden retriver most are awesome with children. My daughters GR. kids can lay, hang on his tail and crawl all over him and he is so good. Of course with surpervision. Good luck And you have my Blessing.
