I know, I know, I shouldn't have done it - but that's how I got Sully. We saw him before xmas and no one was buying him and he was getting bigger and bigger and apparently no one wanted a bigger yorkie. His price kept going down. He started at $1,800 and after xmas he went down in price and every week I kept going back and he was still there and we would hold him and he would just look at me like he was saying "get me out of here!" and finally - I couldn't take it anymore. When he went down to $950 - I said screw this - I can't imagine what they're going to with this 5 month old puppy that won't sell so we bought him. He's the best puppy in the world. So loving, and healthy thank goodness. Yeah, he's 11 pounds but he's worth his weight in gold and I love him and look at it as I "saved him".

Please don't blast me with insults for buying at a pet store...I'm only human and my heart was breaking for his little soul.

I swore I would never do it again, but my heart is breaking again for this other "older" pup that is stuck there. I guess I should just stay away from the store - but it's really hard.
