Just joined! I know I'm a Tzu lover but I love Yorkies too lol! I joined this site while searching for my Tzu's older breeder, now I didn't buy Murphy from a breeder his past owners did. I always wondered about Murph's past so I decided to pull out his papers and do some reasearch, thats when I came across this website of a forum someone had posted about him being a puppy mill. I private messaged her and sure enough he was one of the worst kinds of puppy mills. I cried at knowing that because I can't imagine what these dogs have to go through, its just sickining. My Shih-Tzu bears no sign of coming from a puppy mill but it worries me about what might be for his future. Right now I'm happy that hes a healthy 5 year old Shih-Tzu, hopefully he'll never show signs of being from a puppy mill.
Below are some pictures of Murph, one of him as a puppy before we got him. Also one of him and a Yorkie friend. |
