This is disturbing to me. I think it is the same whether they are show breeders or hobby breeders. Espeically the males seem to get neglected because they are afraid if they let them in the house they will mark. I don't know how prevalent this is, but I just don't know. |
Hmmm...I was looking for a small stud male for my girls and someone told me about a Breeder about an hour away in my area. I contacted her with the thought of getting a puppy and she told me that she had a stud male that was one year old and she would give me a good deal on him becuase she did not like his coloring. The rest is history.. We just adore him and think he is beautiful.. His pedigree isnt to shabby either...
I was a bit concerned at first because of all the marking, but that was a problem that was easily solved once I found YT and asked about it.. I was well advised about the wonderful Belly Bands.. Now Shiloh has the run of the house and is enjoying the spoiling of his life.
You sort of hit the nail on the right on the head.. The Breeder told me she wanted a house Yorkie someday.. but all her dogs are kept in her garage in kennels..
At first when we brought Shiloh home he would make me cry just to look at his little face and know that he did not enjoy love and companionship that first year.. I think we are all making up for it now and he sure is a little munchkin!!
Thanks everyone for all the wonderful comments on our precious little Boy..
