On this thread alone there are 25 msgs posted.
5 of these agree with me that this puppy is too young
13 are just congratulations on getting a puppy
the remaining are either from original poster or blasting me for saying what others are thinking just won't post.
The other posting I replied to today was from a person that took a 5 week old! This puppy is way way to young and the breeder should be punished for selling such a young puppy.
My Yorkie was 11 weeks old when I got him........ from a breeder that knows the difference these 3 weeks make in a puppy. |
Why not bash the breeder who is selling the puppy too early instead of bashing the people who purchased the puppy. First of all, if you have no experience with puppies you may not know what age is too young. That is the breeders responsibility in my opinion. Second of all, the lady with the 5 week old puppy was very upset when she found out how old the puppy was because she had been mislead. And third of all, my momma always told me that if you don't have anything nice to say don't say it at all. Finally, don't every human being make mistakes?
Amy you will make a great yorkie momma. Please don't let someone discourage you. There are WONDERFUL people here at YorkieTalk that will be glad to give you help and support!!! Stand firm girlfriend!
And you go Sylvia!
