I only read this thread as far as page 3...

my reaction is this-

wouldn't it be great if here on YT there was information posted on a thread on how to find and buy a yorkie in the correct way?
How to avoid puppy mills and scammers too.

With the internet explosion, you would think it would be easy to find a healthy pet, but I think it can make it harder because so many unethical people can hide behind the world wide web.

I wish punkie would have googled the seller's name before going out to visit.
It might have saved the trip.

There were so many red flags going up yet punkie proceeded.

Maybe if punkie could have read up here on how to find a dog,

it would be another step in educating buyers and eliminating puppy mills.

Right now, you would have to read on a regular basis to find out info on how to find your dog and find it buried all over the place.

It seems a lot of us find YT when we begin searching for a pet.
