Well, I tried my not so computer savvy googling and using the phone number the only thing that came up (for me anyway and again, not a computer whiz here) was her Yorkie picture links. So I clicked your linked poodle forum conversation and I did read all of that, sounded like a poodle breeder pearl had handed over (?) her poodles to Kim? So then I googled Kim balas poodles (and a few other combos) and what showed up was a few different akc show results websites which indicated that Kim balas was listed as a co owner/co breeder of at least one (but possibly more) show poodle. I did try google combinations that included puppies/puppy etc but the only poodle related results I got (beside the poodle forum comment) was her akc show results. Oh! I did see the teacup reference written into the blue 'link' that was on the poodle forum that would direct you to kims website. How do those words appear? Are they keywords that a web designer would like, idk, embed as a code into a web address?

As for the Pomeranian piece though, I really couldn't find anything. I thought I had a link at one point- it redirected me to another set of akc show results but it was kim representing a Yorkie and had just read the keyword Pomeranian because it was on the same page in the toy class. There is a 'balas' result that comes up that does show a Pomeranian and a Yorkie but it is not the same balas family. It is don and Diane and the Pom owner actually has my same name Alyssa

So perhaps my lack of computer skill is showing but all that I saw was co ownership of some akc show poodles with someone named pearl. I haven't checked out pearls website either but it sounded like she had retired in the last few years. I am Not a master investigator I suppose but I appreciate you sharing those search tips and links as of course I want to be a master investigator when I am making a decision about supporting or not supporting a Yorkie breeder. I appreciate your help.
