Sad Just Venting

I posted in the breeder forum asking if anyone had ever heard of this breeder www.terrystwobytwo.com No one has heard of her but everyone was saying it looked shady because of the number of different breeds she had at the same time and that her yorkie gave birth to 8 pups!

But the main reason why I asked about this breeder is because this is where I bought my yorkie from. I have had her for over a year and love her to death. I bought her before I found out about the Yorkie Talk website on a recommendation from a friend that bought a dog from her. Yes I bought the dog sight unseen from MS and had her shipped to NY and wish I would have found this site before I purchased her. In reading this site there are a few things in my dog that I have noticed.

1. she has an underbite (the breeder told me this b4 I got her and I wasn't concerned because it wasn't life threatening) but if I had known what I know now I know this is a genetic defect in the line.

2. Her hair won't grow and is very coarse. She is over a year old and still has puppy hair. I know now that this is also a genetic defect.

3. Her ears are HUMOUNGOUS and legs EXTRA long. I have never seen a yorkie as tall as she is. She is very tall and her ears are huge. This to me is also some type of defect or either not a good line.

I love the dog I have but if I knew then what I know now I would not have purchased from her. I think she must not be breeding to better the breed. I haven't quite figured it out but the more things I learn the angrier I get that my dog doesn't seem to be genetically correct with the yorkie line. She looks full blooded yorkie but these were just some things that I observed.
