THanks.

Forgot to mention, I received the AKC papers 2 weeks (and 2 vet visits) after i purchased him. On the contract, the seller wrote Newton's birthdate as 9/23/11, the papers notated his actual birthdate as 9/01/11, as well. The vet thinks that the seller gave us a later birth date so we'd think Newton was further along with his shots.

I thought it was common knowledge people who pay for a purebred puppy like a yorkie will tend to pay a higher price for a smaller animal. Its obvious the seller is deceiving buyers to make a lucrative sale.. My point is, sellers should just be honest, or if they don't know... they should not lie. This guy runs a "business" so i didn't know if there was any means of reporting.

Also, on the respiratory infection.. Newton was hacking as soon as we bught him, before even takign him out of his travel cage to go into our house.. The vet said it wasn't kennel cough.

Thanks for the replies.
