I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | OMG! I am going to puke. Would you guys just LOOK at this! I am so steaming mad after reading all this. I want nothing more than to e-mail this person and give her a piece of my mind!!! I was on YouTube watching doggie videos, and came across one that this so called "breeder" had. So I of course clicked one some of her videos and was just STUNNED by what I read..... "ur puppies are bred to be small. And We have SOME OF THE WORLD SMALLEST DOGS/ PUPPIES AROUND. And this is the smallest yet we have ever had. Our micro pocket tea cup Maltese are bred to be small not the runt. Our Exquisite PUPPIES LIVE A VERY PRESTIGIOUS LIFE STYLE. WE WELCOME YOU TO COME OUT AND TAKE A LOOK.ALL PUPPIES COME WITH ONE YEAR HEALTH GUARANTEE.WE HAND DELIVERED OUR PUPPIES WORLDWIDe" That was taken -word for word- off of one of her YouTube videos. Just look at all those lovely key words and sentences that I bolded out in red Now isn't that nice? So she actually ADMITS that she breeds them ON PURPOSE to be teeny, tiny, "micro", "pocket" TEACUPS!!! A GOOD breeder will occasionally have a "runt" or a very small pup, but they don't SPECIFICALLY BREED FOR THEM Oh I am just SO STEAMED over this one!! Not only that, but I wasn't real pleased with the way she was handleing some of the pups in her videos. Just kind of lets them flop around while she tries to zoom in on their faces A couple of them fell over and then she just ended the video So then....I decide to go to her web site (of course I just HAD to check it out after reading all that "stuff" she wrote) - and I was shocked when I saw this poor little Maltese puppy. It's eyes looked AWFUL. I cannot even BELIEVE that this woman would put a picture up of a dog looking like that to BRAG that she is it's breeder! It just totally blew me away. I attached a picture of the Maltese to show you. She is of course the white dog on the right Anyway, this lady's web site is www.exquisitepuppies.com if you want to look for yourself Oh yeah, and she does the "designer puppies" (mixes)

| tiny puppies It would be interesting to write to the breeder and ask for some references in order to contact people who bought from her. Then find out how large the puppies are when full grown grew and to see if they have had health problems.

| I looked on the page that said microteacup collection or whatever, and that is just horrible!! I'm not saying these puppies aren't cute, but she is robbing people...She charges up to $10,000 for her dogs!! That poor maltese has some serious tear staining and the coat is super poofy and hair looks really damaged... Some people are just sick...

| I've looked at that site for almost a year. Actually full grown those puppies don't seem as small as he says. If you go to youtube you can see video of his puppies and once he had one in a waaaay to tight, too small sweater so that the poor thing kept falling down and couldn't walk in it. I've seen smaller dogs on YT than on his site. He actually doesn't have that many litters per year and the conditions look better than a lot of sites out there. I think charging a lot doesn't necessarily make you a bad pet owner and breeding small dogs doesn't either, it's the putting them in cups and wearing too tiny clothes that made me upset. I can say I've never seen any reports of sick animals concerning his site though and that's really more than you can say about a lot of the ones we see pop up on here.

| Oh, I forgot to add that it doesn't show the parents on the site that I've ever seen so we don't know how big the moms or dads are. Some males can throw smaller offspring. Over the past year I've seen repeat people buy from this site(he posts the names usually) so I'm guessing(just guessing) they're happy with their puppy. I couldn't afford to buy from there though.

| Ugh...breeders like that just make me sick. These people are why I get so angry about breeding dogs... Breeding tinies, so many breeds, and mixes and selling them for super high prices. and how many words can you use to describe a tiny dog?? "Super Tiny Micro Pocket Imperial Shihtzu Tiny Puppies" My gosh...we get the point..they're tiny...I guess the tinier they are the more adjectives you need to use?? Stupid...
