Oh sweetie - that's just so so sad for you. I know just what you mean - how can you spend time with a puppy and send her BACK ? ...that's just awful she passed.
UNFORTUNATLY - there are BAD Breeders who will breed yorkies of very tiny sizes - and many times -
with Genetic Defects....the really good breeders would never do this - but it sounds like your breeder did something not 'right' and sold you a puppy that may have had problems you weren't aware of.... and that's just plain sad...for both your yorkie and you.
Some Breeders can really fool you with their Sales pitch
In the future ....the best way to find one is word of mouth and try to talk to others who have dealt with the particular Breeder you may become interested in. It's really hard finding a Breeder with Ethics - many people have jumped into the Breeding Ring and it's the yorkies who are suffering in the long run - and those who love them.
