rehoming I have rehomed most of my retired Yorkies..I like the idea of them having the best of everything...and common sense tells me a breeder with 10,15, 20 retired Yorkies can not do the best by them...the dental alone will
bankrupt you..but even with a fat bank account, time to love them all and give them one on one is limited.
Most often I give the dog free of charge to people I know...I, for the life of me can not charge for a companion I have known some for a few years..puppies and young adults are different, but that is just my odd way of thinking..but I understand charging.
My retired champions and non-champions all did well..I never had anyone ask me to take one back..they adjusted and my Chopper lived until 16 1/2 yrs when he died last yr..he used to come visit me, sit on my lap and give me lots of kisses, but when his mother got up to leave, he was ready to go...and that made me happy to know he was so content...
I had a Japanese breeder ask me to buy a retired champion male I had..but I could not do it...my excuse was that my dog did not understand the language and would never hear the words.."I love you again".....breeder wrote me off as a nut case. |
