RED98VETT: I truly don't hold his weight against him - he is now 7 lbs. - and is cuddly and affectionate. It's still disappointing how much I overpaid for him. I could have gotten a standard male yorkie here in Canada for $700. I ended up paying with shipping, exchange, etc. $2200 for him - and now I can't use him for a stud(way too big), must neuter him (another $200) and use another stud (found one in another town -- this will cost me $500). Believe me, I can't afford to spend $2400 on a pet - but was willing to spend the money b/c I saw it as a business (breeding) expense. For whatever reason the Chaffins have now dropped their prices, but still claim that many of their puppies will be 3 pound adults????
TRUE REVIEWS: Sorry you went through a similar experience -- it is very frustrating to be treated like that and have little recourse. I can't believe a breeder would send such a tiny puppy away from his mom so early. I am glad he is now healthy. Did he at least end up under 3 pounds like the breeder promised? Do you want to share the breeder's name so that we can add it to the list of breeders not to use? |
