Ok so you want the truth here it is:

So this is what i meant in my bio actually..
I dont own nor WORK for her persay..
I have wanted a yorkie my whole life, but i dont come from a family with alot of money, in fact we are paycheck to paycheck and always have been.
I unfortunatly cannot go out and drop even a hundred dollars on a dog like some people can, (and good for them) but i dont have that luxury.
I am 23 years old, with my two children and i struggle each day to get thru school in the vet field and I for a long time now couldnt work because I was diagnosed with Hypotension when i was pregnant with my daughter, causing me to pass out everytime i was on my feet for more than 15-20 minutes or so, then i had my daughter in april. And i had to hold off on going back to work until she was old enough for daycare. During which time i spoke with Susan (I emailed her to compliment on her puppies, i loved to look at them and wished i could have one someday) She asked me what i do for a living, and i told her that right now im just a mom while my fiance works hard and gets thru pharmacy school as well and i apologized because i didnt want to lead her on into thinking i was a potential customer (dont waste your breath ma'am) lol.
So anyways i explained that i do some graphic design but i havent had work in a while and she said to me
"Ok how about this, you seem so sweet and i can tell you have a love for puppies, why dont you barter with me, help me make my website and we will keep it simple, and you have your pick of a puppy from me"

She was so excited to make my dreams come true, shekept saying "JAIME FINALLY GOT HER YORKIE, IM SO GLAD" that was my charlie.
Because of this, i had alot of respect for her considering most people in her field of business amoungst almost every breeder i have met in my life, would just say "thats too bad" or "oh well, take care then, maybe in the future when you have the money" ...because they see money signs.
Susan went out of her way and lost alot of money on me, but she was happy to because she knew i would appriciate my yorkie (charlie) EVERY DAY OF MY LIFE. We kept in touch often, the website was done and over with.
I was at her house for the 2006 top knotch reunion party that she holds every year (a chance for the pups and owners to reunite and party hearty)
and I commented on a little puppy who looked much diffrent than the rest,She was beautiful and had such a cute face, she really stood out It was a pup namd Jaclyn whom her family was debating on keeping as a family pet because of her amazing personality, but Susan wasnt so sure they needed another pet considering she has 2 yorkies already and spends so much time with the puppies she has..She knew i really loved that dog from the beginning and that night before going home, she presented to me and option to take jaclyn (renamed by me- lola) home with me. Immediatly I broke into "OH MY GOD" mode.
She asked if in exchange i would go to her house periodically and help with the puppies which i LOVED to do and did anyway. So for a 3 weeks period i devoted my time to her.. 2 days a week for 3 weeks or so just to give her a hand with grooming the pups (4 hands are quicker than 2) or just to take them out in their big backyard and run around with them and socialize, or to help sweep up and keep everything spic and span...During which time I signed up for this FORUM, now when i go i go for pleasure because my car died on me, and i cant get around anywhere...
BUT MY POINT IS....this is what i meant..and this is why i get so pissed off when someone points fingers and says she is a heartless money grubber.
NO no shes not. She gave me two GEORGOUS healthy puppies and i could never thank her enough!
She took care of alllll the shots needed for them, deworming, and vitamins as babies..everything they needed to get set up at the vet that is routine for puppies she did for me, knowing i couldnt afford too much without sacrifice.
Needless to say, im back to work and things are going great, But without her heart i wouldnt have my two babies!!!
