I for one am not a member of any (click) here or any where else for that matter. I come here for knowledge (and to admire the lovely babies). When Flirt was first listed I thought she was very cute, and believed that she was with a caring family who was trying to find a better life for this little girl. I actually hoped that Tae would get her, but then I read all this, and I really am shocked. I do not know anything about this breeder, but after reading the ads on puppy find I believed that she was the seller of these puppies and was selling on the CH status of the sire. I went her website, and fell in love with Gambler. He looks like my Chip and after looking at his pedigree I see that he has some of the same lines as Chip, but knowing that a breeder will cross breed throws a red flag to me who would be a potiential buyer looking for a puppy, seeing the words Purse Puppy would be another red flag to me. Any experienced breeder should know this would reflect back to her either way positive or negative. Another thing that bothers me is the OP and the breeder is all hung up on Flirts size. Sure she is small, but its not all that uncommon. Four out of my Six are that size, and from what I see over half of Yorkie Talk has yorkies that size too.
I feel for Tammy because of the position she is in with Izzy. I have been very lucky that all my babies came to me healthy and I did not have this to deal with, well until I got Haley back in December. Haley got sick right after I got her. I took her to our ER Clinic here and they said she had several problems including a grade 4 luxating patella in her back leg. When I contacted the lady who I got Haley from she was very hurt and shocked. She offered to pay for her treatment, or do what ever I wanted her to do. She never mentioned taking Haley back. She stood by Haley, but understood that I loved her too. Luckly Haley did not have a luxating patella! but it was nice knowing she came from a great family before she came into mine.
After saying all this, my opinion should be understood.
