My only interest is for this specific puppy that God will move Tanisha's heart to give immediate care and surgery when pup is ready.
I think of everone on here i know what i am talking about with an AAI pup. My pup was diagnosed 11 wks. Immediately in body cast until she could age and bones stronger. She had respiratory issues in the cast. At exactly 8 months old she had to have surgery. She survived surgery. But two days later lost her battle with resp failure and bones still too soft to hold screws- so had to change to pins. I know this diagnosis. I know the care of an egg shell baby that i adored with my entire life. I know the horrible pain of seeing her take her last breath in my arms. So with all of this said i hope you trust me and the other moms on our AAI group as being experienced first hand in knowing how to speak with Tanisha.
I was horrified probably more than anyone to see the videos and follow this story. But we put our anger aside to offer education and compassion in behalf of the pup. We still pray for full body cast and immediate help or surrender. By statistics she is too young for surgery. But every case is diff with these fragile babies.
We do not support seeking funds nor do we support auction of a stud dog that may be an aai gene carrier. This all goes back to education and overriding pup $ for health care.
If a breeder breds tinies- i cannot bash if a population wants tinies. But i am passionate about proper education. And i certainly believe in prayer- for this pup to be in His care and not suffer- and to even use Tanisha to open her eyes to see what the pup needs.

Since this seems to be directed at me Sherrylynn, let me address you directly. Tanisha Breton is notorious for her breeding practices. She has allowed her bitches to suffer and even die while giving birth in the past, yet she continues to produce puppies. There is nothing you can say to justify what she is doing including stating that she is feeding a market. She allowed a bitch to crawl about her living room while giving birth with a puppy stuck in her vaginal for hours crying in agony. Then took pictures of her preteen daughter holding that dead puppy. She sat with another bitch in the parking lot of her vets office while in labor because she did not have the financial mean to pay for an emergency c-section in the middle of the night. There is NOTHING to justify this type of behavior or unethical breeding practices to feed the need for tiny puppies. Additionally, there is not a reputable breeder that would EVER breed 2 and 3 lb females to intentionally feed this need. Saying that there is a need for this tiny sized Yorkie is like saying baby seals should be clubbed to head because someone wants a seal fur coat!
Finally, I would like to remind you that after your Ellie died from complications of AAI you contacted me to help you bring home your new little girls from Michigan. I picked Lynnie up at the train station and drove from Chicago to Michigan. We met Wendy and her husband on the side of a highway. The reason that I did this was to help you both heal from the loss of your little girl Ellie and help to med the heartache that was created by your breeder. I remember you saying that your breeder did nothing to help you both financially when you spent a great deal of money to try to save her. Your response to me afterward was to UNFRIEND me on Facebook after I drove HOURS to pick up your new baby. You then lied to me about not removing me as a friend, claiming you didn't know
how that could have possibly happened.
You asked me to send you another friend request that has sat ignored for almost 2 years. Your actions toward me speak volumes then as well as now. My lesson was learned.
I will not stop with Tanisha EVER! She needs to be stopped and the misery that she perpetuates from her breeding ethics is not something that you or anyone else will ever be able to justify in my eyes.
Prayers from you or anyone else will not help this poor puppy. Rescue and responsibly will.
