If the dog is looking to the side, yes there is white. The dogs have a little light in their eyes from the camera, but I could not see anything remarkable that would cause concern. Of course I am not the expert as several of you seem to be. And wherever I go I will certainly keep this in mind when looking at any dog.
I very much would like to know this. As I said I have found them as local breeders in my area. I googled their name and the only bad reviews that I found were on this site and this was discovered a month after starting my research. I found on Google a lot of good reviews. could someone direct me to whatever started this thread of them being a puppy mill?
Thank you |
Hello mambolady. Please be aware that many comments are made to posts that people read earlier. They do not necessarily refer to the post that was just made. That said I did some quick research here are two sites
http://www.yelp.com/biz/star-yorkie-kennel-reseda http://losangeles.citysearch.com/review/613669830
that are local and review Star yorkies. The first has 1 positive review and 2 discussing their sick puppies. The other has 24 reviews there are positive and negative reviews. Maybe the question is how lucky do you feel. You could go ahead a buy a puppy from them and get lucky and not have any health issues....or you could be very unlucky and have it be sick and have it cost you a lot of money. Just because people are nice and their facilities clean does not mean that they are good breeders. They could be breeding for size and cuteness and not for a healthy puppy without genetic defects. People on here get very emotional over these issues because they have been helping owners with sick puppies for years and come to recognize warning signs of a questionable breeder. I do not know about Star Yorkies so I will not offer my opinion on his practices. But I also wonder why every time the owner posted there was a picture of a different yorkie that was available. It was marketing under the guise of defending himself. The ultimate decision will be up to you as with any choice we make in life.
