There's no "answer" to this one except of course, don't buy puppies from anyone but a good breeder......

Ok that being said, here is the story.....My daughter had moved and taken Mika to ATL., and I was missing having a yorkie. On a whim I talked a girlfriend of mine into going to Puppy Corral with me (the sister store of Arky Bark where I had bought Mika). There was this most darling yorkie there, but I left her and went home, couldn't sleep, had to have her, went back the next day and bought her.

Side Bar: I was also under contract with my cousin in Chicago to help find a baby for her daughter for Xmas. Almost immediately after bringing her home I knew that Kaya was not the one for me, but the perfect one for Rachel.

SO I called and told them about her, and then spent the next couple of weeks prior to Thanksgiving (when they were coming from Chicago to come get her) working on potty training, getting rid of ear mites, and a nasty kennel cough...(and this is a dog you paid 2,200.00 for).

By the time they came to get her, she was pretty straight, and had potty training down pat.

So it is a year later, and they excitedly brought Kaya by to meet Maya. (they are home for thanksgiving again). I couldn't wait until they pulled her out of the carrier, and when they did, I was in shock. This adorable adorable puppy has turned into something that bears little resemblance to a yorkie. Everything about her is well...just awful....her hair, her face, her eyes, her body formation, her ears, you name it. She looks like a cross between yoda and an airdale, silky. or something.

My cousin looked at Maya running around and wanted to know why I drove all the way to Oklahoma to get MY yorkie. Why didn't I buy her from the same place Kaya came from. I was so hurt that this very expensive dog turned out this way. I learned my lesson way too late for it to help someone else who I got into this mess.

Ok you may beat me up now, but it is no worse than I have already done to myself.

(I had picked Maya out this adorable dress to wear to dinner, but I'm not taking her now.)

By the way, this is Kaya when she was little.
