This is off topic

and I really do not know what you are getting at

, but Hefner and Buddha were the first yorkies I had ever adopted. I did not buy from a pet store and I bought from a local breeder with 30 years experience who also sold puppies for a breeder co-op. The breeder I bought them from spent two hours with me going over their health histories including the fact that Buddha was allergic to sulfa, what vaccines they had had, all about hypoglycemia, etc. She sent me home with a fabulous puppy package including a crate, a purse carrier, toys, blankets, food, snacks, a free vet visit, a book on yorkies and her emergency cell phone number.
She later saved Buddha's life when he stopped eating! The vet did not know what to do and had prepared us to say goodbye to him but the breeder taught me how to syringe feed him and gave me all of the supplies and the medication to save him.
She was wonderful...so, no, she did not know until AFTER she sold Hefmer to me that he was neutered but I do not hold it against her because overall, she was a godsend.

The breeder's vet and my vet confirmed that he was in fact neutered.
