Well just wanted to let you know that my lil guy found a home with Mrs. Dottie in NH. She wanted a small pet and was happy to ad him to her family... She used to raise German Shepards but was ready for something small. She only wants him as a pet so I am happy he is in home were he will be taken care of............. As to FLAKES comment.... He is a small dog but I have never encouraged anything that would be irresponsible about my pet. He is small and hobby breeders or people who breed toy animals look for that because people like small dogs. AKC does not have a teacup yorkie and I am aware of that... The word wac used as a description.... he is small. But if he is bred to another yorkie it would not be irresponsible as long as the mom dad and puppies are well taken care of, doctered if need be, and put in homes where they would be loved... If he was a sick dog or had a disease THEN IT WOULD BE IRRESPONSIBLE. As for neutering him, I received at least 10 emails from this place alone saying not to do that to him, there nothing wrong with him and he is as happy as can be. When he went to Mrs. DOttie I told her he had never sireds a litter but it didn't mean he wasn't capable...But she didn't care she only wanted a yorkie to love on...and she preferred a smaller than usual one. Thats her preference and she has every rigt to have it. And to her a pet that small may be worth more that it might to someone else. WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN opinions. We should knock each other for having them. As for the two saying I contradicting myself... read the post again --- I said I got him as a pet but pretty much left my options open to get a female and breed him but I never did because I didn't want to.... there is nothing wrong with getting a pet YOU LOVE and TAKE CARE OF, and then maybe down the line want to get another to let him have a mate..... I believe thats pretty much what a Hobby Breeder is. Just one or two to have puppies but knowing their pet, lloving it and taking care of it, and maybe having a litter of puppies once a year. It doesn't mean you don't care for your animals. In the end i decided on not getting him a mate because i probalbly couldn't of handled it so i didn't. If i had THEN YOU CAN SAY I was IRRESPONSIBLY breeding them because I wouldn't have been able to take care of all of them properly. So I did what was best for him and now he is in a loving home. ---- Just wanted to clarify myself and give my opinion..... we all have a right to....BTW thanks SoCalyorkiLvr and TXshopper.... I like and agree with you opinions.....wow that was a long post!
