I do not know either the seller or buyer in this thread but did offer to look at forwarded emails and relate what I read.
Here is the exchange about the pictures:

Javier, it is okay if you feel it is wrong to use your photos of your dogs. At least I asked. I can take new pictures of Tiziano, that is not a problem. What I was thinking was if you did allow me to use some of your photos was to put your kennel name there for my potential customers to see. But it is okay. I am not mad and I understand how you feel. Would it be wrong to only use Tiziano's Dad with Tiziano in a photo?

Ch. Lion DīOr is not my dog anymore , if you want to use his pics you have to ask to the new owners they are in U.S also I can give you their email address ."
As to the question of size. There are very detailed emails from March
3/20 Javier says "
I think if you realy want to bring her to everywhere , Cabriolet will be the best Choice , she will be realy small , both they have excelente silky coat , realy Cabriolet is almost perfect just too small to breed/show , she never can do that ," then he tells her about another dog that is a little larger.

I am still thinking that I like the small puppy (female) better .... (Then she goes on to discuss some carriers, the puppy purses and another one: "
This is "brand new" stuff for here in the USA and very popular. I don't know if I like this yet or not and this is not what I was thinking when I told you that I want a small dog to take everyplace with me. BUT what a way to bring attention to your dogs so people will ask questions and maybe want a business card to contact me to buy a dog later on! Look as this....... Puppy Purses
My idea for a small Yorkie( to take with me everyplace) was something for my purse and for the dog to be hidden yet comfortable. Glam Line! Collection This is what I have in mind. "
Looks like Javier has told us the truth on several counts. He did tell her the female was too small to breed and show and he recommended another one. She said she still wanted the small one. When he had to substitute, he was still going on the premise that she wanted a small one, to carry around with her to capture attention, and not to breed.
When she did get the little female, she wrote to him again. She did not say anything negative about it being a different Yorkie, or being small. She did say she weighed her at 2.5 pounds at 18 weeks and asked what his adult prediction for her weight would be. She also reported she had a small cough when she picked her up. That was it. So, she did not express any displeasure in the pup or surprise that it was a different one from the original one.
I think Javier has gone above and beyond, by providing the emails to be read and information transferred here. He has provided proof that he has told us the truth.
