Reputable breeders will tell you they breed to better the breed. They breed to standards and would never intentionally mix a yorkie with a poodle to produce puppies. After this breeder mixed these two breeds together she then passed the puppies off to someone else to sell because "she didn't want people parading through her house". That statement further makes this situation even more questionable because it says to me she is selling puppies only for a profit. She is not concerned with the idea of making sure her puppies go to home that *she* approved. I will guarantee there was no testing done of the parents or a good contract for the health of these puppies. I haven't even touched on the idea that your friend went to the breeders home to begin with and now the puppies have and her phone number has been passed on to a new woman. Shady, shady, shady!

A broker is a broker~they are selling someone puppies and the breeder is not taking the responsibility seriously of breeding. If she doesn't want people parading through her home then she shouldn't breed.
