There was a story this morning on the Today Show about these types of puppy mills. I can't recall the name of this parent corp, but they sell every breed, farming them out via "breeders" across the states. There have been sick puppies sent as well as ones who died within weeks of the owner receiving them. Wish I could recall the name, but I'm sure it's readily available through NBC's website.
If you're buying purebred yorkies, be sure you get solid quality references, like from the fine folks here before you buy. Please don't just trust any ole website just because it looks good and promises good things.
