My Husband went to Mount Hope (Amish Country) this weekend to help a farmer friend buy 100's of Silkie chickens.
This was not the infamous "Exotic Animal Sale they have there twice a year.
But a farm animal auction
He seen lots of Yorkie's for sale

AKC and CKC
"Parti Yorkie's"
You could get the Yorkie's Akc INSTEAD OF ckc FOR 100.00 MORE !!!!
One that he was telling me about ,that the mama was still nursing the 4 puppies...
Mind you this woman told all the people around here looking that they were 14 weeks old !!!!!!!!!!!
And their ears were taped and they were very little yet

I told him there's no way mama lets 14 week old puppies eagerly nurse!!!!
That they were much younger and the woman was lying about how little they would be !!!
I'm pretty sure about this , but I wanted to post about it...
Has anyone has every heard of 14 week old puppies eagerly nursing?
Or was she lying...I just know she was.

Just burned me up !!!!! All kinds of dogs for sale.
I just cant imagine selling one of my babies this way....sick sick sick !!!
Most of these people selling puppies were "English" (What Amish call us)
This is what happens all the time...
And it gives the Amish a bad name..Amish do NOT usually have the puppy mills. Not here in Ohio.
Our friend who husband went to help with the chickens , is a Ohio Inspector shuts them down. Most are "English"
BUT the auctions are in Amish Country ,as auctions are their way of life , so many assume its Amish Mills and its not.
They do however breed and sell puppies much cheaper then we do.
Not good...
