One of the Yorkies in the video could not walk properly. It was limping on both back legs with its whole hiney bent under. They said the oldest dog was 13 and the youngest adult was two, and they had THREE litters of puppies. You can't be too concerned about finding homes when you're still letting the animals breed. I could care less what hard times a person has, what kind of neighbors they have or any other kind of excuse they have, this is deplorable. I am disgusted looking at these poor babies. Thankfully, on the South Mississippi Humane Society Facebook page a local groomer was giving them haircuts and baths. If you can't take care of animals and your pathetic excuse is you can't find homes for them, then at least find a no kill shelter (we have one up here in Mississippi) and turn the animals in there. Absolutely no excuse for animals living in these conditions. By the way, if you can't afford to provide rabies shots, don't get dogs. It is the law they have a rabies shot in Mississippi. The animal laws might not be that great here, but they do have to have rabies shots.  |
And, I will go one step further....if you cannot afford rabies vaccines, you cannot afford all other routine vetting for yorkies which is important. I find it disgusting that people keep yorkies and don't go to vets and refuse to do dentals. And that is especially for breeders....they are the ones who should be doing those things and teaching others who buy their pups the need for such care.
