Hi, I am a Yorkie breeder. I do my best to raise healthy, happy puppies. I do have a kennel and I am inspected by the USDA and have always got a perfect report. I know lots of dog lovers think just because you raise puppies in a kennel you are a puppy mill. I am here to state that is not true. All my dogs are treated better and get more attention than lots of pets I see even in my area. I do everything I can to keep my puppies out of pet stores but then again not all pet stores are bad either. I have been reading the post on the puppy boutique in Brooklyn and it makes me sad. In fact, the reason I'm here is I had been in contact with them about buying puppies from me so I did a search on them and found alot of terrible stories from people who bought puppies from them. No way I will do business with them now. I can't believe people would buy a pure bred, registered puppy and leave with the puppy and not have the puppies registered papers. The store gets the papers with the puppy so there is no reason the new owner doesn't get the papers. If I were buying a puppy I wouldn't leave without its papers. The breeders name is on the registering paper so anyone can do a search on the net and usually find them even if the store won't give you the breeders number. I've had people call me that have purchaced my puppies at a pet store for background on the parents. I sell most of my puppies to individuals by running adds in newspapers and off my website. I have shipped puppies all over the US and if I can I get non-stop flights so it doesn't take more than 3 to 5 hours to reach its new owners. I hope I don't offend anyone by raising in a kennel which is climate controlled, auto feed and water, but there is no way hobby breeders can supply all the people that want a sweet yorkie to love. I want all to know my puppies are raised in a clean enviroment and I give all of them as much attention as time will allow.
