Im not sure why, but each time I run in to petsmart I see at least 2 people with a yorkie...
Today, there were 3 Chorkies up for adoption, so I stopped and chatted with the woman, and then down the food isle, there was a lady with a yorkie puppy.
So just being nice (plus my kids wanted to pet it), I went and spoke to her.
Me: aww, how adorable, how old is he (blue collar)
Her: Hes 8 weeks.
Me: oh, did you just get him? Hes really tiny!
Her: no, we own his mother and father and just wanted to take him out today.
Me: oh cool, are you a breeder? I have a biewer yorkie at home
Her: his dad is a biewer parti (
), and his mom is an AKC standard. He is a teacup.
WTH. Literally how the convo went. First, you just technically made a MUTT. Second, if you own a biewer, doesnt mean its a parti yorkie. Third, since she owns 2 of them shouldnt she know there is NO SUCH THING AS TEACUPS?!?!?!?
Thats it...Im not talking to anyone else at the pet stores. If I happen to bring my dog (which isnt usually unless hes there for a groom) then I will gladly explain the difference to people.
Oh, and since the pup was 8 weeks old...shouldnt she have a harness on him and not put him on the floor? I saw that later too..shame shame shame.
