I checked the local rescue — Idaho Yorkie Rescue — ADOPTIONS —*RescueMe.Org who has one strange looking dog. So, I found one I could afford. I would have preferred getting one from a better place, but unfortunately that didn't work out. I posted here for any reputable breeders to pm me. No reply. I appreciate all of your concerns for my puppy. I have appreciated all of the tips. I am picking her up tomorrow. I understand we all have our opinions and feelings regarding where puppies come from, and I appreciate the differences. I will not be discussing my puppy's age anymore. I would like to share my experiences here with everyone else. If it offends anyone where I got my puppy or how old she is, please feel free not to converse with me. I'm ok with that. Otherwise, I look forward to raising my puppy and being able to ask questions, share photos, get advise, and hear everyone's stories. |
Sometimes we make less than optimal choices. But, we are here for you to help you with your new puppy. My suggestion right off the bat is to start saving for medical emergencies or consider pet insurance. Good luck with your puppy!
