First to the OP welcome to YT. I have been here a few years and have found so much info from some of the very best breeders around. Yes there are many heated conversations but that is because of the passion we all feel for our babies. I purchased my first yorkie from a puppy mill before I knew what they were. So far he has been healthy but who knows what is in his future(all good we pray) but who really knows. We have a tiny little 3 lb girl too who is very healthy but she came from a 6lb mom and a 5lb sire. People who breed these tiny little ones purposely are just asking for health issues. Do they care? Probably not because after all it is the person who bought these puppies who's hearts will be broken. Sure they offer a replacement, like I said their hearts aren't involved. I think you will find a lot of good information here if you decide to stay but as far as the breeders here being jealous I find that highly unlikely. I pray you puppy has a long and healthy life but I also pray that if this breeder is purposely breeding tiny little pups and causing so much heartache not only for the owners but these precious little lives that the news will spread and she will no longer have a business to discuss. |
