I just bought 2 AKC registered yorkies from a woman who I now think is a puppy mill person! here is the story she told me: both 2 years old ,1 male 1 female, unfixed. Good with children, housebroken, up to date on shots, female de-barked...both sound physically! Very cute little tykes and they had had a ltter together of 6 pups a year ago. O.K. I go to look at them and she has the boys AKC registeration but not the girls? she has it in her possession but it has never been updated from the last owner. I take the dogs all their info...basically becasue i want to save them and withhold money from the payment until I get her papers straightened out.
meanwhile I soon discover neither one is housebroke...she can bark as good as he can...not good with kids don't think they have ever seen a child ! AND they had to have all their shots updated and new cuz her records didn't reflect any current shots! Another $240, with worm check and heartworm meds for spring. He is not sound
..if from injury ( he is a real jumper!)
or congenital hard to tell ???? Now it was my dream to start with these two dogs and build a kennel...been my dream for 40 some years !!!! 3 days after we get them she goes into heat! causing me to devise what I call Heidi's dietie! We also have large pom male fixed. Woman keeps giving me the run around about papers says she's mailed for them but I never get them??? Wants her money...not until i get papers baby cakes! Also I feel i have been lead FAR astray and she is not entitled to the rest of the money becasue of the lies !!! Final conclusions.. Will keep them as pets but I still want her papers as they were promised to me!!! they are learning and I sure as heck have!!! they are wonderful little dogs who just needed someone to love them! I guess she could still be bred but after reading these posts.. I think I will just keep her safe and get the surgeries scheduled for both of them! Thanks buds
