Exclamation finding a reputable breeder-original message

Thanks to all for your comments. For those who doubt my knowledge, I spent 35 years showing and utility training German Shepherd breed at which I was quite successful. Of course all the breeders I met during those years we were aware of bad ones and stayed away. I am now a senior and have been plagued with spine and leg pain and live on morphine. I had always wanted a very small housedog as a companion as I had 6 Persian cats and an older 12lb Yorkie. Thats why I wanted a tiny one for a change., which I could nurse on my lap when resting. I adore the puppy I received from this person but I have paid a very large $ for a small puppy specifically. Not being fully familiar with sizes of other bigger Yorkies and having just got out of bed with pneumonia, I saw the photo of my pup and fell in love with him. I just had to have him at any price. I feel betrayed by this woman whom I trusted was being straight with me. She even advertises a guarantee that hers small on her sites. I just feel that she shouldn't be able to charge so highly and guarantee size when it turns out to be untrue. No way would I return my puppy; I wanted a partial refund for the deception and the ability to get away with it. So, those who berated me as "wanting to hear what she told me" were so wrong. Look at her site if you know it, read the guarantee and see the pictures and see the quotes of expected weights. I have worked with dogs all my life, just not familiar with brokers. Always dealt straight with the breeder and observed the pups I bought in the past. Thanks again, the puppy is doing well.
