And now with the economy, people dont want to drive either, they just want you to post pictures. How can you tell anything by that? You can post any bogus picture you want. I have seen alot of people selling puppies by the road side lately also. I guess they are trying to temp the people on major routes to the stores or on the way home from work.
You are so right! Many people just want a yorkie. They don't care about backgrounds, genetics, etc. and when you can purchase an AKC pup for $400, the good, responsible breeders are SOL.

Summer time is not a great time to have pups. People are going on vacation, etc. I only breed once a year and I skip the summer pups. Just have too much going on.
