Default For Sale and only 5 weeks old!

I'm constantly preaching about good breeding practices, responsible pet ownership, choosing a reputable breeder and what does my friend send me this morning? This ad for a puppy for sale that is only 5 weeks old.

Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale: Baby Boy

How could any reputable breeder think to sell a puppy at this age while claiming to be sick. Isn't that the oldest scam in the books? Then to add insult to the description they were hoping to "show" him! What responsible exhibitor would put a puppy up for sale at only 5 weeks old This poor little boy needs to be with his momma until at least 12 weeks old or longer. As a responsible breeder it was my understanding that no matter what happened in your own life (sickness, death, accident, etc.) it is your RESPONSIBILITY to either take care of puppies that you allowed into the world or find another breeder to help you accomplish you duty to momma and the litter she whelped. What is wrong with this picture?


Something is seriously WRONG with this picture! Sounds like a puppymill to me....they also sell Beagle puppies.
