Seems like I hear the horror stories when people call to ask about puppies.
I have friends that I refer to when I don't have puppies available but I try to only refer to those that follow the YTCA code of ethics and bile acid test their puppies. One lady asked me last week if she should take her puppy home at 5 weeks old because the breeder said the mother had weaned her and it would be fine-- I do wish Tennessee would get a law for people like that. CKC and the others scare me because they aren't inspected nor do they do the DNA testing. I don't want to scare anyone about the 22 pound 5 month old yorkie owner that called me last month.
