Another thing why is this breeder so anxious to get rid of the puppy at 10 weeks old and take a lesser deposit???.......Think about this. I am not bad mouthing the breeder she may be a wonderful person to deal with but the ethics are questionable on what she is doing. I learned alot from the YT members on this site because of genetic health issues and behavior issues with our last dear beloved yorkie Keally. The new baby Kinder is a big difference from the last little girl. Our breeder handled the puppies everyday and gave them socialization skills. Also she made sure they ate food very good and stays in touch with us. Hope this helps. |
This is all so "stressful" to me lol.... She breeds other dogs and actually has them ready to be sold by 8 weeks. The yorkies however she keeps 2-3 week longer. With the deposit she gives you the option to pay 100- 200$ which ever was more convenient at the time. She honestly does seem like a very loving and responsible breeder. She has stressed the "puppy care" in many emails, never been too eager to convince you to buy the puppy. We will be driving down there to pick up the puppy, and we both agreed before the finishing pymt is made, we will meet the puppies parents and see where here dogs/ puppies are raised. The puppy will be registered, be current on all shots, has a health guarantee, and up until the point the puppy is ready to come home we will be getting weekly updates and pictures. im really not trying to be nieve i just dont know what else we can do.
