We purchased our Bella a few days before Christmas 2012. After searching for a female Yorkie and trying to avoid scams, we too were fooled. I spoke w/ mr Rascoe and he offered a discount because she was the last puppy available. He said I needed to respond quickly because the offer would not last long, meaning there were several people inquiring about the puppy. Their web page states akc/aca, and I assumed it had two forms of pedigree. Wrong! I sent my hubby to pick the puppy up because they said that they could not hold for Christmas because they were heading out of town for Christmas parties, (probably on another puppy run). He picked her up on Friday and we also were heading out of town so the papers were left at home and not observed until Sunday. The papers stated ACA registered not AKC and after researching ACA is about the same as having no papers at all! I took Bella to the vet and he said he had never heard of ACA and asked how attached we were to the puppy. Nothing was wrong w/ our Bella but he said after looking over the paperwork, that is breeder should not be trusted. Our shot records were just a printed paper stating when the shots were given( nothing that could be verified), so the vet recommended starting the set of three shots completely over. There is no way I would send her back to these brokers. Her paper state the parents are from two different states w/breeders names listed but no way to get in touch with, probably fake. Bella is so terrified of people, so under socialized. She loves my other Yorkie, but terrified of people. The situation is just so sad. I pray that one day she will learn to trust us, and love us as much as we love her. Please do not purchase from these brokers, they need to be put out of business!!
