Go to this link, call the Animal Control Division at the Department of Agriculture in Hartford, CT. Request copies of 4 health certificates. You may have to request them in writing, ask if there is a copying and mailing fee (it will be minimal). I always just go there, it’s only an hour away, but assume most of you aren’t in CT.

Ask for the following Oklahoma health certificates:

1359147 (The 2 Bulldogs) dated 6/2/08
1371383 (4 Poodles, 6 Yorkies) dated 8/21/08
1371384 (2 Pugs) dated 8/21/08
1145021 (1 Pug, 5 Yorkies) dated 1/22/07
Please note, those are the vet sign-off dates located at the bottom of the certificates. Glenda Beavers or Sean/Nancy Silverman are listed as the consignors (sellers).

That way you will be getting the certificates from a disinterested third party and you can make of it what you will. You could probably request the same information from the Oklahoma Dept of Ag, although I do not have their contact info.

All I have stated from the beginning is that Glenda Beavers does not have a USDA breeder OR broker license to sell to pet stores based upon the number of breeding females at her facility. I don’t care about her show ring reputation, that’s not my concern. But if she cares so much for puppies, why would she ship so many to a store that buys the bulk of its pups from Hunte Corporation, the largest and most notorious puppy broker in the country? Would she not be concerned about the diseases her pups would be exposed to in the store? Parvo, kennel cough, pneumonia, giardia, coccidia etc?

I’ve truly had enough of being attacked by the lynch mob on this site. I have presented the truth from the beginning and stand by it. If there is some way that you all want to justify Ms. Beaver’s actions, so be it. Doesn’t trouble me one way or the other, I was just sharing information from the documents I have.

Karen, I read up to page 12 and I have about had it. I don't know what's right or wrong but I've been involved with the Yorkshire Terrier breed for 25 years and I have never heard a bad word about Glenda Beavers ever and I would bet money on her any day of the week. I would just like to ask one favor of you......in fairness I would like you to post information on yourself that we can check out. This would only be fair.
