Sad............... - YorkieTalk.com Forums

I know that God is in control, but we have decided to put our hobby breeding on hold. So, right now we have 3 dogs we need to sell. We have 2 females that are 6 months old and 1 male that is 7 months old. The 2 females we've had since birth, the male since he was 8 weeks old. We are keeping our 2 original females, but just not going to breed right now. Will probably get them fixed. I'm really sad about it, but I know that I will eventually be able to do it another stage in my life. We have had some financial problems arise on us, and we're having to let go of our puppies. We are selling the 2 females for $400 a piece and the male for $550, because that is what we paid for him. We're willing to take less for the 2 females because they were ours to begin with, so we're not wanting a whole bunch for them. I don't think $400 is bad for females. Pray that I can say good bye to them when it's time. :-( Thanks for letting me get this out in the open. I'm so sad.

I wish I had $400 I would take a female in a heart beat. I just dont think that my other half would let me spend that much. Good luck, and let me know if you dont sell one female and I will see what I can do. Maybe I'll do a little sweet talking

luv4yorkies · 08-26-2005, 06:06 PM

do you know how much they weigh as of right now?

jennifermcb · 08-26-2005, 06:07 PM

Weird...I *know* I responded to this thread earlier, but my response is gone.

I'm sad for you. Good luck placing your pets!

luv4yorkies · 08-26-2005, 06:09 PM

yeah i noticed your post is gone.

I wish you good luck on finding your babies good homes!

I am so sorry for you. The financial struggles are difficult enough, but add the emotional struggles -- really trying.

I also have total faith in God. It is sometimes so difficult to know what He has planned...and sometimes why. We raised our children (now 32 and 28) to love the Lord and they certainly do. In fact, our son and his family (our first grandchild - 6 year-old; another girl due in a few weeks) and our precious daughter-in-law, answered God's call to missionary work. They are now serving in Estonia (near Russia) for 30 YEARS. What can you do? Trust God. They are doing marvelous work. But it certainly has been difficult. We are an incredibly close family.

I just bought my first Yorkie three weeks ago. He is awesome. In fact, his paperwork came today and I spoke to his breeder. She re-emphasized that with his bloodline, he should not be neutered, but rather, bred.

Could you give me more information on your little girls? Do you have any pedigree information on them? You can PM me if you want.

Regardless, I'll keep you in my prayers.

Did my 28 year-old daughter and I visit with you in PetsMart several weeks ago?

wired · 08-26-2005, 06:21 PM

Okay, I went dumb. (Used to it by now.) I got you (in Missouri) confused with luv4yorkies (in Killeen) confused.

Sorry, but rest of message remains.

How sad.... I wish you luck on finding homes for your babies. The adoption fee you are asking is very resonable. You should have no trouble. Have you found homes yet?

ttreatsyorkies · 08-27-2005, 02:35 AM

Sorry to hear about the news. It is difficult letting go of your babies. Can you tell us how much they weigh? Are they AKC? Our prayers will be with you.

suzysmitt · 08-27-2005, 04:30 AM

I'm sorry you have to go through this. I felt the same way when I stopped breeding my pits. It's very hard to let them go, and the fact that you're willing to negogiate price is commendable. Just make sure you give them to good family's and you'll sleep better at night. I thought I sold all of mine to really good family's and found out later that one of them was not so great. It hurts me every time I think of my poor male with these people, but they have moved away and I have no way of getting in contact with them. The other's are in great homes and I still am in contact with their owners. I get pictures and updates every couple of months and it keeps my heart and mind at rest.

Esme's Mommy · 08-27-2005, 05:38 AM

I am so sorry you have to go through this! I desperately wish I lived closer to you! I presently have a 9 month old female and would love a companion for her.

Good luck finding those babies forever homes. I am POSITIVE someone from on here will buy them quickly!

I am very sorry for whatever situation you are going through right now and I hope it turns out well in the end for you. I would like suggest that you insist on a spay/ neuter contract for these dogs since you are unaware of the bloodlines and stuff. You certainly don't want to foster the breeding of pups that may have genetically linked health problems from back in the bloodline and your price is more than fair for a lovely pet.
