The vet is willing to sign a letter that the dog does not have any hereditary yorkie conditions.
But the way, the “accidental breeder” is only asking $500 -- half of which has already gone to the puppy’s and mom’s vet bills and the other half to the father's owner. I told the woman who has the puppy that I didn't think the father’s owner should get a stud fee if the breeding was an "accident." She said the father's owner did not have his dog neutered.
What do you think? Is the "breeder" being reasonable? |
Oh, this was no "accident". IMO, these people sound like "backyard breeders". Again IMO, I know you have fallen in love with this little guy but I think you may want to consider looking elsewhere for a pup. I just feel problems coming your way down the line. Sorry. Also, I do agree that if you are going to use him as a service dog, a "larger" or as we here on YT like to call them. "teapot" sized Yorkie would be your best option. Good luck and please keep us posted.
