| Tiny Baby Girl For Sale Hello Ya'll! I have a precious little girl for sale. She is 8 months old and is 3.6 lbs. I had originally bought her to raise and then breed. I started to realize a few months after I got her that she was not going to get as big as I had hoped for. She did have all of the other qualities I was looking for - (healthy, great personality, and so pretty) so I tried to be hopeful that she would grow more. I now know that she is not getting much bigger so I am trying to find her a great home that is in need of a "tiny" addition. If anyone is interested in this little angel, please let me know. My Pixie is AKC registered. I am asking $1100.00 for her. I would be willing to trade for a larger dog (5-7 lbs full grown).Thanks for looking! Last edited by b_veselka; 05-21-2005 at 11:11 AM. |

| I have a female AKC registered that will be 4 to 5 lbs full grown. She is just under 2 lbs right now. I would trade her for your tiny female. Where do you live? Im in Kentucky area. Also I have several pictures of Paris if interested. She is from 3 lb father and 5 lb mother. |

| Apollo, this sounds a little strange to me. You bought your male for $800 but two puppies are too much to handle so you will sell him for $500 + shipping but need him gone by Friday and want a deposit even if you meet the person to give them the puppy. Now you are willing to trade your female for another puppy? I am not saying it isn't legit but anyone who is considering this be careful.

| I just bought my 2 little pups. 2 pups are too much for me to handle. YES I am going on vacation. What is so confusing about that?? I chatted with someone off this board last night and showed them my 2 pups on web cam. There is no scam here and Im not out to deceive anyone. I understand people want to be careful when buying online but I am not out to scam anyone. We are leaving Sunday and YES I want to find a good home for one of the pups by then. There is nothing wrong with being a slight rush. I dont want to have to board him while were gone with him being so young. He is at the age where he needs to bond and adapt to a new home not be boarded or left with friends. I have web cam and can show him to anyone who wants to see him if you have yahoo messenger. Yes I was going to trade her for a smaller female. When I bought her I had been looking for the smalest one I could find. Areound here you can get them any smaller than what Paris is. I bought them less than a week ago and I dont plan to breed I just want the smallest little girl I can find. I bought 2 puppies when I should have only bought one. What is so confusing about that to you?? They have FULL AKC Registeration and I can show that on web cam as well. Im not a scam and Im not trying to take someones money and run. I ask for a deposit upfront before driving 6 or 7 hours YES. I drove a great distance before to sell something not dog related and the people didnt show up and I spent 150.00 in gas and plus my time and effort for nothing because somebody else couldnt see fit to at least call me and cancel our plans. Asking for the gas fee up front is not odd, a scam or weird. I dont mind someone waiting to pay for Apollo when they see him but I will not be taken again as far as people who dont show or not serious. I have a couple VERY serious people right now looking into taking Apollo and you can be very sure I am very picky to where he is going to go. I did not breed him, I just bought him but I still want a great home for the lil guy. I bought my Yorkies for companionship,, not breeding or anything else. Anyone interested can also call my vet and confirm shot record and all on Apollo. Once payment is made they can also call and confirm he goes to the vet for health certificate and acclimation to fly. Like I said we are going out of town for a while and Id like to get him in a permanent home before we go. he is at the crucial age where he needs to know where home is and WHO home is. WELL anyway I am not going to explain my actions any further. I AM legit and I can PROVE it. I am NOT a breeder and I just paid 1800.00 for my 2 lil Yorkies and just cant handle 2 dogs. Sorry if I dont meet the criteria people here judge by but Im a stay at home mommy and wife and I spoil my furbabies more than you can imagine. Thanks, |

| PuppyLuv, I see your point and concern. I thought of this not being legit when I first saw the posting. Apollo understand that we all need to watch out for one another, because some of us are really hunting for a yorkie at a good price and are willing to take up any offer that is within our budget. Some of us are not thinking clearly when we make decisions and throw out money because the offer is to good to be true, just like your offer. I find it hard to believe that you purchased two yorkies at a high price and now want to get rid of one for half of what you paid for it because you are going on vacation. How long did you know about your vacation? Why didn't you consider this when you spent your high dollars? Now, do you see why it looks like a scam. I just wanted to let you know what your posting looks like from someone reading it on the outside. Why don't you try to sell it back to the original owners, most of them are willing to take them back if you change your mind. So, again why are you trying to get rid of him is it because you are going on vacation or is it because two dogs are to much to handle? Don't you have any friends to pet sit for you while you are gone? If by a slilght chance they did breed without your knowledge you are going to be up against more than two dogs and of course you will be making more than what you are losing selling your other yorkie at half of what you paid for. Thanks for letting me state MY opinion and take it for what it is worth. Have a great day. Teresa |

| I already called the woman I bought him from. She is a mail carrier and she doesnt breed professionally. The mother and father to these 2 are the only dogs she ownes. She doesnt have time for puppy she works long shifts and already has the parents she said she wouldnt have time for him. Like I said this is her first litter for her 2 Yorkies and she isnt a big breeder and doesnt have the time for him either. I am selling because I cant handle 2 very robustlittle pooches. I wanted to place him by Friday because we are going on vacation. I did exactly what yaw are warnding people not to do, JUMPED in head first when I seen how cute they were and bought 2 instead of the ONE I was susposed to get. He is well worth what I paid for him I just didnt see fit to ask the 800 that I paid for him I know most people cant afford the 800 upto 3000 Yorkie breeders are selling their pups for and I wanted a GOOD home for him. Sometimes better homes doesnt mean more money. I am willing to take a loss as long as I KNOW he is going to a GREAT home. I dont want him going to a large breeder, someone who is not going to pamper him like he has ben here for the last week. I take them both everywhere but sometimes I have to leave one or the other at home. Its hard enough to sneak ONE in stores etc but 2, especially 2 that get much more louder and playful when they are together. I understand being cautious but not to the point that is causes people to make judgements and base opinions about someone because of a broader concern. I am not a breeder, I would be more leary of breeders because they have pups on a regular basis, have more to place, and are usually less picky to where they go. Im not talking about the REPUTABLE breeders because those are few and far between. Im talking about the ads where people have litter upon litter for sel and prices are 1000 FIRM and they dont ask any questions about the home or why they want a dog etc. I am very concerned where he goes and I would take a loss in money to be sure he is in a GOOD home. We have known for a while about our vacation but we had planned to take both dogs with us. Having spent the last week taking care of 2, not 1, frisky pups I am SURE I cannot do this on vacation along with 3 children ages 4, 6 and 9 yrs. During the day the kids are at school and Im alone with the pups but on vacation I will have my 3 children not to mention my HUSBAND who is the beggest kid of all to watch. I just didnt want to have to board him or hire a pet sitter because he is young and gets attached easy. I wanted to find hima home where he can bond with the new owner and make hisself at home. If I kept him I had planned on getting him neutered so there would be NO babies in our future. I thought that much ahead but not about how hectic 2 puppies and 3 kids are together. I DID exactly what people SHOULD NOT DO Dont buy on impulse, dont let the cute faces and puppy breath get to ya. Do youre research and make sure you CAN handle a puppys needs. |

| Goodness gracious!! Why are you people so DOWN on newbies for?? I bought these 2 less than a week ago. yes Im attached to both but I had thought about getting a smaller one. I had originally set out to get one 3 lbs or less full grown but the prices are OUTRAGOUS! Im not paying 3000 for a PET dog that will be spayed and spoiled. Some of you are just right out rude and scary. I am NEW to the group and make a few post and already in actions are being questioned and my intentions put on trial. If you are that upset about buying online DONT DO IT. If you arent completely comfortable with who you are dealing with etc DONT DO IT. You sure know how to scare people away from a great board dont you? Like I said I want a TINY TINY lap baby. The through crossed my mind for 2 seconds about trading Paris for the little 2 lb female. If push came to shove I would not do it. It was a THOUGHT, and I am allowed to have thoughts and opinions without being judged by you. Do not begin to tell me what type of person I am or who I am for that matter. I love my babies and although I have had them only a WEEK I am attached and want what is BEST for them. GOOD DAY AND GOD BLESS |

| Still offering assistance Apollo: As I indicated in your post about selling Apollo - I'm only a short drive away from you - Owensboro. I will sit your little one until you come back from vacation - you provide the food & other necessities & I will not charge you anything. Kim |

| No, I am not anyone to judge, but only to state my opinion like you. My intention is not to scare anybody off this great board, but to state my opinion just like everyone else. You state your opinion and we answer back with an opinion. It is not that you are new on the board, it's just the way you came across, it was questionable. But, you have explained yourself more than once, which you didn't have to do, you could have ignored all the replies that seemed so negative, but you didn't. I hope you find what you are looking for along with Apollo. Teresa |

| I understand that and yes I feel I have answered any questions, explained myself and offered proof to everything I say. I think I have went above and beyond what was asked of me but yet I am STILL getting messages and post that are negative and hurtfull. People saying I dont care about the or act like Im not attached to them. I am HURT because I have done and said everything I possibly can to prove who I am and that I am doing what is BEST for Apollo. What would be worse is if I kept him and didnt have time for him and didnt give him the love and attention he deserves. To me that is what should matter her. I am taking a loss to do what is BEST for him. How can that be wrong?? I understand people looking out for each other on the board but where does is state you much belittle, degrade and judge newbies to the board?? I have done more than what was asked of me I have showed Apollo on cam now 4 times to people from this board. I have showed his AKC papers on cam, shot and vet record. I dont know what else to do to show you that Im not a byb or out to get rich by selling this lil guy. Im finished proving myself to anyone here. I have answered the sam questions OVER AND OVER and I dont feel I owe anyone an explanation of why I cant handle 2 dogs or WHY Im taking a vacations etc. If I seem upset it is because I AM. |

| Yes if I dont hear from the girl who has been talking to me about Apollo today I am going to run an ad locally starting wed. I have to place it today to be in Wed paper. Around here though there are alot of BYB and mills and I dont want him to end up in one of them. I know there are byb and mills everywhere but in our local papers all you see are byb dogs and millers. |
