Her daughter breeds the mixes. She breeds a top Yorkie with a top Maltese. She doesn't just throw them together. However, I'm not saying I agree with it. Susan and I have argued for many years about a lot of things. She has her beliefs and I have mine. The only thing I was posting about was to clear up that she isn't brokering any longer. She has developed what I feel is a pretty cool breeding program.
I met Susan when I got Tia and she was kind enough to send me baby pics of her, and all her info that the person that orginally bought her did not supply. We did not start out as friends. I did not agree with the brokering or her business, and she knew my feelings yet she always remained friendly and polite. I think over the years we were able to put our differences aside and learn from one another and even become pretty good friends. We still have our disagreements but all in all I cannot say anything bad about her.
Her dogs are well kept, the pups are well cared for. I was lucky enough to be at her home at the time one of her moms was delivering. It was an amazing experience to see. Her husband even helps with the delivery. She buys food etc in bulk from the emites (I think I'm writing it correctly) and while I was there I met a little rescue she took from a mill when she went into PA for food. She has told me that she tries to educate them and teach them how to be more humane. She was able to convince them and show them how to build a better kennnel. May not mean a whole lot but it showed me a side that I didn't know before.

It says Color silks when you go to her website.
Her daughter has all kinds of mixed breeds, not just Yorkies & Maltese.
Are you sure about the brokering part, because given the quote below she is considered a "respected breeder/broker" and IMO there is no such thing as a "respected" broker of puppies!

The poster below bought a puppy with full registration from someone who got their dog from her, so I guess that's not a problem as to who she's selling and giving full registration to.
I'm glad her dogs are well cared for as anyone's dogs should be.
I don't think people are horrible just because they have breeding practices that aren't what I would recommend.

LOL, obviously directed at me and that's fine.
"INEXPERIENCED" as you put it has NOTHING to do with it, I'm NOT a breeder.
If I were a breeder I would have gained a TON of experience before going out and buying dogs from anyone I could get full rights from and I wouldn't have been lied and deceived on something so incredibly important.
As I stated above if she is still brokering, that's not respectable IMO or in most people's opinions and that isn't a breeder I would recommend to anyone. Most buyers do not know breeders personally, so they go by research, etc...
