| I personally don't trust anymore anyone that accepts Paypal. Selling without meeting the futures owners tells me they don't care enough to do a background check or meet the future pup parents.

| Her name sounds familiar. I think I contacted her when I was looking for my first yorkie. I really didn't know anything about petstores or BYB. If i'm not mistaken, I remember getting a weird vibe from her and ended up getting a pup elsewhere... another BYB in MD.. UGH! I've learned my lesson. I really do hate hearing that things don't work out well though . poor pup!

Her site is choc full of overpriced mutts, and what is a golden yorkie anyway? She breeds for "teacups" and will ship anywhere. Some of the pups don't look well to me but at the same time I've never seen pups like this before. I've seen Partis and Biewers and Morkies and Traditional Yorkies but these look different to me...guess I better educate myself a little more on the so called designer breeds Yes, I feel bad when these things happen too. Especially to unsuspecting good people...

| This breeder has me nonstop thinking. Honestly, I love all animals (except Peacocks-long story) but I just can't help but think that her pups just aren't great examples of whatever the breed shes calling them. That pregnant pup for sale breaks my heart and I really wish I had the ability to take her, but then that would also mean perpetuating the support of bybs. It just breaks my heart to look at Goldies face.

| I personally would look elsewhere. I have know first hand knowledge regarding this breeder, but there are far too many things I see as red flags on the site in addition to what others have mentioned--breeding multiple breeds, non standard dogs, advertising "teacups." JMO |

| Definitely not a good breeder in my book. The thing that I hate most is when someone sells a pregnant dog. That dog is under enough stress and to go to a new home to have puppies, it just makes me so angry. I wonder how she got Nemo. I thought the breeder that was selling Nemo was reputable, I wonder if she knows what kind of breeder she sold him to.
