YT Addict | Really bothered i hope i dont offend anyone... I've kinda been poking around the idea of a new baby, so of course ive been doing all the normal checking here for available yorkies in my state or nearby, the nlooking through my area, for breeders and all the normal things, well today i came acrost a dog here available near me, of course i looked, not what i wanted but i looked anyway just to see this cutie. well a little bit later i do a search on google for dogs in my area, just lookign for breeders and such and find this same persons website where this dog she is selling has two possible upcomming litters both where this dog is several pounds larger then the female. I dont agree but whatever your choice. what bothers me is that this person has rehomed two dogs in the past year and is rehoming due to family stresses, well then why do you have two upcomming litters? i just dont get it. I feel so bad for this little baby hes just looking for a forever home and it appears hes being used for breeding purposes only. This upsets me to no end. It may just be my emotions my twelve year old chihuahua was hit by a car this morning, hes doing well after spending most of the day with the vet but my emotions are shot to say the least. Thanks ladies for letting me vent, this post probly makes no sence

| If the one you're looking at, is the one that has been used for breeding purposes, I would stay away, unless you want to use bellybands the rest of his life..Once they use them for breeding, they mark everything in the house..I'm sure if you want a puppy, there are a lot of breeders on here that have them..I just bought 2 from a breeder from Michigan and had them shipped...she sent the neatest little care package for them both..I know she has 2 males and 2 females left, and they will be 12 weeks this Friday |

YT Addict | It wasnt a matter of wanting this boy, im not certain i want one right this second or not, im just starting my search so i still have many months of research to do. What bothered me is the way this person advertised this boy as needing to part because of family situations, when in fact you have two litters due and very poor breeding practices. I usually dont involve myself with these kind of issues but this one struck a cord with me. i guess i should jsut mind me own bussiness

| I understand how you feel about the breeder. Some people really don't seem to care about the welfare of the dogs do they? I hope your little one is ok, hugs to both of you.

| I know how you feel, when I was looking for a pup I came across a site and all they advertised was "teacups" and "tinies". It bothers me that people exploit these poor babies for their own gain and simply don't care for their own dogs, the breed or any animal for that matter. |
