Jack- I apologize to you if your feelings were hurt, that is why I posted that I have two small Yorkies that are totally healthy. I wanted smaller (3.5/4lbs) bc I live in a condo and also bc I want to take them with me and its just easier when they are smaller.
I think thought that what people are trying to say that if you want a healthy dog, especially a small one... you HAVE to get it from a responsible breeder. You have two strikes against you if you don't do that... first the size and then the unstable lines...
Please take Pat's advice and see for yourself where this pup was raised and see the mom for yourself. What does this little girl weigh now?
I forgot who said it, but checking with the loval vet is an excellent idea!!!
Anyway Jack... I don't think your bad for wanting a 4lb'er... I did too! The whole size thing is another reason for buying from a responsible breeder that knows their lines inside and out... they know what they are breeding for!
(Did anyone see that show on Animal Planet.. it helped to put a Pet Store out of business bc the Vet actually filed the complaint!!!!? |
