Well, let's start with the home page. She's advertising that she has a 1.5 lb stud that she's going to try to breed for tinies. Huge red flag, as no reputable breeder purposely tries to get tinies.
Then, she says she sells on limited registration, but you can inquire about full registration (that reads: for a price, you too can breed these dogs). Reputable breeders do not sell on open registrations.
The site states:"I guarantee your new yorkie is standard in size or smaller in writing."- A reputable breeder can not guarantee that. They can only give you an estimate of what their adult size will be based upon the sizes of other litters from the same pair. Yet, further down on the page she says:"We do not guarantee adult size or color. Size estimates are carefully based on our experience." That part's right, but why does she say she guarantees it just a few paragraphs up?
Her health guarantee only covers life threatening illnesses. A good breeder will also cover things like LP.
When you click on her pictures of her dams, you see a small girl tied up on a lead attached to her collar. A good breeder wouldn't do that because of the risk of CT.
There are quite a few red flags. But it's easy to see how someone could be lulled in to a false sense of security.
