I didn't get a chance to see the parents because the breeder met me half way(he lives 3 hours from me).
So, my question is, what does everyone think? He has the markings of a Yorkie, docked tail, dew claws removed. His nose just gets me! Of course, I will keep my baby either way, I just want to know if I was lied to.
Thanks!

I think he is adorable... and if you think that too, then both of you are winners. I'm so torn...enabling breeders to sell rag tag puppies from deplorable conditions makes me sick to my stomach... yet, once that puppy is born, I only hope it finds its way to a loving home... I think you have chosen a new member of the household, and come what may, you should be proud of him. But do take the time to look deeper into the problem for next time. This baby is very fortunate to have found you, but his parents may be leading a life of unimaginable hell as they produce babies until they're too old and tossed out to die. YOU are not the problem. You are a loving new owner. Just join us in trying to educate potential owners on how puppies come to be offered for sale, and make sure we don't inadvertently support cruel volume breeders.
