I peeked in on his site and thought for a minute it had to be the same pictures he had up before. But I guess it is the same outfits and props. He has "teacups" listed from $650 to $7500! Some of the price differences don't seem to make any sense at all.
Other red flags:
--no pictures of parent dogs,
--way too many puppies for anyone to raise with any sense of compassion,
--more emphasis put on teacup size than any other characteristic,
--health guarantee & help with papers denied to anyone wanting to breed,
--suggesting puppies be allowed to eat anything,
--each listing says "registered teacup" or "registered toy yorkie" -- doubt any are registered AKC. There are registries out there that will register anything, even dogs without papers on their parents, for a fee. But I don't know of any that register yorkies as teacup. All yorkies are considered in the toy category.
--also sells mixed breeds (for very little $$ too, which makes one wonder if they were just puppies that came out not looking like they were supposed to and maybe the security of females only being bred by one male might not be all that great. After all, if he could make so much more on purebreds, why mix them?)

Is there an anti-puppymill organization that might want to put up a billboard near this guys operation?
