Appalled by what I saw today! We were driving to the bank... and we saw a woman on the side of the road with a exercise pen on the grass and a sign that said "Yorkies for sale". I told hubby OMG we must stop and talk to her. I told hubby lets "play dumb" and see what the situation is. Well we get out of the car and two other women are talking to her, we notice there are four Yorkies in the pen. Two are older and two are younger.She said "Are you interested in a Yorkie" and I told her I love dogs and was curious why she was on the side of the road with Yorkies? She said she had an ad in the newspaper and just not getting response from it. She has two litters one is 8 months old and the other sixteen weeks both are " AKA" registered (not sure what that is). She wanted $1500 per female and $999 per male (I was surprised of the price). She also said she was about an hour drive away and wanted to "try" a new area. She did not want to ship her puppies and was not computer savvy. As we were getting into our car she asked if we were interested in her female and she could cut the price because she just needs to "move the dogs". I felt sad about leaving the puppies and they were subject to anyone who stopped. OMG! Is this the "sign of the bad times"? I just feel so sad for the puppies and just wanted to get home to my three furbabies. I can not stop thinking about them and just hope they find good homes. Any thoughts? |
