I'm sorry for your bad experience with Stacy. Like so many others here, I thought she was a very reputable breeder from what I have read/heard.
I'm also very sorry for Lilly's mom, that she was sold a puppy who was much sicker than she was led to believe. I would think you're entitled to at least some of your money back.
I am buying a sick puppy (not from Sylvan), but I know exactly what I am getting into because the breeder has been honest about my Lily's health problems. But, I am not paying as much as Timmy paid for Lily, and I am not being misled about her problems. It's much different when it is your OWN choice and you know EXACTLY what you are getting into. I will keep your Lilly in my prayers.
To the OP: I think that if you paid for an AKC registered yorkie, that is exactly what you are entitled to get. I hope you and Stacy are able to resolve this issue. I can see that it was very hard for you to post.
There are always two sides to every story, but you waited a long time and even warned this breeder that you would post here. I can't help but think that something has gone very wrong with Stacy, but a simple phone call from her could clear things up and possibly prevent some hard feelings.
Perhaps if Stacy sees this thread, she will at least consider telling her side privately to the OP. I hope so. |
