Her owner was honest by telling me this and she revealed that her breeder had not been completely honest with her when she purchased her … she was also kind enough to offer to refund the cost of my plane ticket if I decided not to take her….

I know that yorkies can be prone to some health problems, especially the smaller ones … I just don’t know what to do with this information!!! I'm so disappointed, but I had already started to think of her as my furbaby!!! Also, I have a health issue myself that may require surgery, so I feel terrible with the idea of rejecting a furbaby because of a health issue … oh, I'm so confused!!!

I don’t want to just think with my heart here, I want to use my head, but I'm having some trouble flipping that brain switch right now … PLEASE HELP!!!

Any opinions would be appreciated….
Well if you are thinking with your head I don't think we need to tell you.

Best of luck to you.. I feel sorry about the news but you now know, better then down the road.
