Ok~everyone is settled down here so now I can think
She told me that Melinda from the rescue has been in contact with her for a few weeks about picking up these dogs. With the passing of her mother, she has now decided that it is time to close her breeding business. Her mother DID NOT just pass away the other day. She needs the time to take care of her mother estate and get her affairs in order.
Melinda and the rescue was not able to pick the dogs up until Labor Day weekend but offered to pick them up early since the Lab rescue was passing through the area and had room in their transport vehicle. That is why the lab rescue got involved.
She has NOT heard from Melinda since yesterday night and did not know what was going on. I explained to her how I heard about this situation through YT and told her that I would read to her what Rustysmom had posted:

I then told her that everyone at YT was very worried that the dogs needed to go ASAP since she was leaving for the funeral but turns out that is not the case.
She said they could stay right there until everything was sorted out with the NCYorkieRescue. Which is GREAT news!
I told her my story about how I drove from Chicago to Ohio to pick up my Doodlebug in June and there is a rescue right in her area. We talked a little about my story and I then told her that if things didn't work out with NCYorkieRescue I am sure that they would be willing to take them if it came down to it. I left her my name and phone number and told her that I could contact them to give them a heads up about the situation. She will call me directly if things do not work out.
I have already sent an email an email. They are right in the area (she actually knew the town) they do mostly Amish Puppymill rescues but I know they would take them in if need be.
So be rest assured at this point someone WILL take these dogs. I will personally follow up with her during the week to see the status. They DO NOT NEED TO LEAVE TODAY, TOMORROW OR EVEN LATER IN THE WEEK.
They can stay just as long as it is needed for them to go to a rescue. Whether it be NCyorkie rescue or now.
I hope this answers everyone questions and puts peoples minds at ease. She truly sounded like a very nice older woman that just wants to end her business of breeding.
