well its nice to hear that others are loving and enjoying their yorkiepoos as much as i enjoy mine, i only wish i had kennel trained him from the beggining which i tried but i couldnt get him to quit his whining and crying as he wanted to get out, so needless to say he still has accidents, but not as frequently as i keep him on the bed with me until its time to go out. and it seems to be working. as far as paying 500.00 dollars for a mixed breed i have to agree with the last persons comments about it, thats outrageous! I thought I paid an outrages price of 300.00 for mine, but i guess as she said its the almighty dollar that takes presidence!!. I guess millions of people are paying for it out of frustration of not finding them in the pounds or at least many pounds. and again its still a lot cheaper than the thousands their asking for the purebreds. but if I had to pay 500.00 or more for a mixed breed id just rather keep the breeds pure and pay the extra 500 or so for them. not that these mixed breeds are not really nice dogs and maybe even better tempermented being that they have mixed temperments. but all and all we have enough dogs sitting in the pounds just waiting for a loving home and if you can handle a little larger dog and have the yard for them, by all means help those poor pups out! I just couldnt handle a larger dog and have found many pound dogs to have unknown backgrounds who at times have come out being mean tempered or having emotional problems due to the abuse many of them go through. (past experience with such dogs). BUt if i had the time and money I would take every single one of those pound dogs, put them through training to help them get over their problems and love every single one of them no matter how homely, sickly or troubled they were. I can no longer go to the pound as it breaks my heart to know i can only take one when they all need homes! maybe one day i can afford to do this and be their to rescue all the worst and least apt to be adopted. so please if there is any chance of being able to take a pound dog and help him through whatever he needs, by all means do so!! i personally just couldnt afford the dog whisperer to come to help me with my past dogs. but A a lot of love and patients will do the same on many of these dogs.
