I am soooo sorry that your baby has been so ill. I know what it is like to spend thousands of dollars on a sick Yorkie. I have one from a puppy mill in Hutchinson, KS which is still in operation after 10 yrs. Missouri is definitely known to have many puppy mills. We do have some great Missouri breeders here on YT, but it certainly pays to investigate if you are purchasing a puppy from Missouri. Just recently there was a thread that claimed that at least two YorkieTalk members were mill operators.....one from OK and one from MO. Thanks for posting your concern. ~Joanne~
