It leads me to believe that the "group Think" and hen pecking still is possible in this hard society. If anyone really cared to know and enjoy us as the biggest sweethearts in the Yorkie world all they have to do is see us on Facebook. If anyone wanted to get a pup from us sometimes they have to wait 6 months., and many will. We love going to the clothing boutique and letting kids sanitize and sharing our babies. We always wait until they are 9-10 week after their 2nd shot. Why would I risk suck a huge investment?Hmmm, now that sounds like common sense. because , we love the breed and we love our friend's store and it brings people in and they are Happy when they pet a pup and I answer so many questions on care and feeding a nd realistic _vs_ unrealistic expectations. I share books and I often give referrals to other breeders i know are great and ethical. Someone sent cop in the other day to check all my permits and documents...guess what? he took my card and he and his wife came to our home and got a pup. look on our FB page at ABBY , the rescue lab no one wanted. We spent tons of money and time trying to rehab this anti social girl..she went to a Modesto PD and his family and avoided Euthanization..I have to ask myself why anyone who really does not know us would try and create bad feelings. The internet is full of violent hostile people who will stalk you and hurt you for things as many of you suggest or say about people you don't know. I have my own recipe and I am very proud because I have the very finest dogs money can buy..do you not think people will steal from us if given a reason or a chance? Think before you attack is all I say..It is really hard but reflect the way you think by being a positive and kind person. I forgive those of you who do not understand how this works. |
I thought if you were on the USDA list you couldn't keep any animals in the house? (this is just something I read, not sure it's true though).
However, you see your yorkies as in investment. meaning you MAKE MONEY OFF OF THEM.
On your yelp page, you have 4 reviews, but 10 filtered reviews. I looked at the filtered reviews. Almost all of them had only one or two reviews, giving you a full five stars. AND you reviewed yourself! which is a violation against yelp rules and it got deleted. Why are you threatening a LAWSUIT against the reviewer who reviewed you negatively? Why don't you right what is wrong with them? They said they would update the review if you would work with them but you haven't.

Update - 2/2/2010 I am writing to update this review one more time in fairness to the breeder and in response to accusations and threats by the breeder that I have claimed that my puppy is not healthy. Let me clarify that for the most part, I think my puppy is healthy and that I have never made a claim that he is not, although I do fear he may have a liver shunt issues, which I hear can be common in this bread and I dont necessarily think it is due to the breeder.
Secondly, after several attempts to obtain my vaccine records I went ahead and moved forward vaccinating him based on verbal records from the breeder. She has also offered to send me the records but at this point I no longer need them.
So, moving on to the situation as it stands. I did offer to update my review once the issues were resolved but now I continue to be threatened with a lawsuit by the breeder. In this modern age we live in we all must function to an acceptable lever of professionalism and if so, that will also be posted on a professional forum such as Yelp.
I have tried to be as clear and honest as possible in my review and I realize that this has been my experience and other customers may or may not share the same experience with Collier Ranch. The breeder sells lots of dogs in the bay area and I assume if things improve or if my experience was and isolated one, their rating will improve over time. But I will not be threatened into removing my review and my right to free speech.
I hope this clears the air and I wish Collier all the best luck, I do love my little boy!

1/13/2010 First to Review I recently purchased a Yorkie Poo from Collier Ranch Yorkshire Terriers. The puppies were shown at Happy Go Lucky Dog Boutique & Barkery in Valley Fair Mall.
First, I would say, ALWAYS insist on seeing the parents and the breeders facilities before you purchase any puppy. I was told that the breeder would follow up with me within a few days after purchasing my puppy and that I could get all the records for the puppy. First, I seem to be having problems getting any of the vaccination records. I was told that all records are kept at the breeders ranch in (209) are code so she emailed me some particulars. I have been told by my vet and others that I should be provided with both records and labels from the vaccine bottles.
Secondly, I dont seem to be able to verify who the parents are. I was told at purchase that the Poodle Mother belonged to the breeders friend. Once I emailed to meet the parents, I was told that she (the breeder) would be re-homing the mother in a few months. I assume that she must have owned the poodle all alon??? When i asked to meet the Yorkie Father, I was told he was out of state being bred and would be gone for a year????
I cant believe it but I think I have been had. Although I would never buy a puppy from a pet store, I thought that having the breeder at a seeming nice Pet Accessory Shop, that things would be on the up and up. Basically, it was a impulse buy seeing those little darlings. I love my little boy and am happy that he will have a good home.
