In fact, many good breeders actually place the tiny in a loving home for FREE. They don't sell heartache. So this is not about the dog, it's about the breeders. |
I can vouch for this. Brooklyn is a tiny and I wanted a sister for her. I searched quite a long time and found that REPUTABLE breeders were not eager to place a tiny. I spoke to many and it was almost an interview before I was told IF one comes up in the litter they'd get in touch with me. I was very happy about this. I FINALLY did get my little girl and she is sick. The slightest bit of a cold can go into pnemonia. They are do not have the ability to fight things off at a young age at their size. We've had her a week today and she's been to the vet three of of the seven days and will have to go back on Thursday again. As Nancy said, there is nothing wrong with wanting a tiny but be prepared for the cost and care and PLEASE do not let these greeders prey on your want.
