| Oh my GOSH! How could someone DO that!? I mean, that's just awful! And $800 for each??? What the heck is this woman thinking? People like that shouldn't be allowed to EVER have a pet of ANY kind. Maybe a goldfish, but man I already would feel sorry for it, too. Ugh, I'm disgusted now.....those poor, poor dogs!!!!!!!

| This woman is in Chicago. I wish I were rich so I could get those babies. I really need to stop looking at dogs online every waking hour. I am working myself up

| Looking at their additional pictures it looks like they all have bark collars on as well How sad, they all look rather pathetic. I pray that they all go to good homes and SOMEONE is willing to pay that outrageous price for them.

| I want to find out how to contact those people or report them to animal control. The dogs would automatically be put into a kill shelter near my house, but I KNOW that they'd be adopted immediately -- if not by me than someone else. They'd at least be spayed so that no one could take advantage of them being "in heat". Those prices are outrageous, too. The Yorkie looks the most miserable.

| It just breaks my heart that some people can get away with such nonsense at times.

| OOOOHHHHH! I can't stand those pictures! The tear staining and coats of those dogs show the filth and uncaring environment they live in. And she says only one of the maltese has black points? Why is she breeding them??? It seems that the pictures of the dogs looking good are of when they are puppies, she turned them into messes! I can't look at this stuff because I want all of them. I feel like emailng her. |

| Jodi - Your Chloe is gorgeous! I am going to try to figure something out with those dogs while I am at work tomorrow. I WISH SHE POSTED HER ADDRESS! I would go over there and steal them. I'd bet they're outside.

| who'll offer the getaway car? (insert Mission Impossible theme music here) Hahahaa, we need to create a "Yorkie Talk Swat Team" and we can all dress in black and go rescue poor yorkies and malts, etc. who are in need, like these poor girls! C'mon, ladies, let's get 'em! LOL.

| Good idea! We can all order the black tees from the YT store. I have a Black Jetta. Would that be an appropriate vehicle? I always get teased for my car and my dog combination. No, but honestly, I have nearly stolen dogs from pet stores in the past. If I'd have gotten caught I had my defense: preventing animal cruelty. I'm sure the pet stores wouldn't even call the police because they'd probably be in other kinds of trouble if the cops came...

| I just emailed her!!! I told her if I lived close I would call spca on her. They are absolutely filthy and uncared for, I can't stand it!! I pleaded with her not to sell to breeding homes, that they weren't breeding quality anyway and that I hoped someone would come take them all and spay them and give loving homes and their nightmare as puppy mill dogs could be over. Yes that is what she looks like to me! |

| Let me know what she responds. How about making an appointment with her in order to see the dogs, getting her addy and going over there at a different time than I specified to take them. I don't know why, but those pics irked me like nothing before.

| I guess I'd also like to add that I don't think is abuse because they're not being spoiled. I believe that people who do not spoil their dogs, but take care of them is enough. This is just atrocious. I don't even think it's a BYB. It must be a mill or someone who got them from a mill and are re-selling. I wonder how old they are.

| Thank for the compliment on Chloe. I will let you know what this "person" (monster) says. Stewiesmom I feel the same way you do!! You know, I have never stolen anything in my life but If I knew she lived close to me I would drive by her house and take them if I saw them. Although they might be microchipped or something. Is there an spca locally where you are or something similar? I wonder if she could be turned in, just for these pictures alone? I wish I had the money to give you to get them all. Another reason this irks me is because she still wants to make money out of them, even though they have probably made her over ten folds. These little guys get attached to their owners, wether they are treated nicely or not. Then to just be tossed aside as though they meant nothing and have to adjust to a new life with new owners...it's so traumatic for them. |
