Default was my puppy switched?

My trusted breeder, who I bought 2 prior yorkies from deceived me with my latest pup on weight/size.

She knew about how my darling Minnie (3-4lbs) died a horrible death due to liver failure and I contacted her about another female that would be approx. the same size that Minnie was, as my Samson (5-6lbs) was lost without his playmate. She informed me that she has a litter of 1 female and 2 males.

I went over to see the pups and saw the female. I told her I was definite on the size I wanted and she assured me it would be small like Minnie was. When I picked her up and she gave me all the paperwork and showed me the weight and told me I had to pay extra for the small size, which I did. I took the new pup to the vet that afternoon and the pup was 10oz more than the weight on the paperwork (which was dated only 3 days prior).

Yes, I am disappointed that I was "taken" by someone I trusted. I fell in love with Gabby (Gabrielle) and eventho she will not be small as I wanted and PAID FOR, I will not return her. She is 8 months old now and not only is she almost the size as Samson, but her nose is turning pink.

I informed the breeder of all of this and she said and did nothing about it, not even return the money for the purchase of a smaller dog. Needless to say, I will not use her again.

Just love your dog and don't fret over the possible switch
