I am sure you all know how much more expensive they are.
I paid top dollar for one of my yorkies from a website in Oklahoma that was supposes to only get to 2.5 pounds
well, he came to me less than that but he was starved, you could see all of his back bones. Now he is a 7 pound boy. I still love him very much but this is a big scam that alot of pet stores and internet breeders pull.
It is very important you see the pup in person and the pups parents before you buy. this is the only way of knowing the true size.
Just because the website or store looks nice, does NOT mean they are honest.
I totally agree with you. I purchased a puppy from a Pet Shop in Gatlingburg TN who said that the puppies parents weighed 4 lbs a piece and that he would not get any bigger. He is now 3 years old and weighs 7-8 lbs. I love him anyway and he is part of the family. I know that you cannot always tell the size, but from now on I will only buy from someone who has both parents that I can view. He will definitely not breed with me 3.5 lb baby girl. So now I will be looking for him a new wife.
