Really surprised at all of this.

Question to you --- If your puppy is or was so problematic and you identified these problems as attributed to neglegent breeding or care from the kennel and have observed such conditions at the kennel, why would you not file a report with the proper authorities about this?

To complain on line and not follow through in real time adversely effects your credibilty.

I have a saying:

~ What you don't see with your eyes, don't witness with your mouth ~

If you have then speak up, if you have not, then shut up!

I just read all the posts on this thread. Maybe you all need to get a life or something close to that. If Gloria is the terrible person you make her out to be, why are you wasting your time posting on this site? Why wouldn't you be notifying the authorities about the way she breeds her dogs and runs her business?

Gossip an innuendo are a dangerous form of communication. While much easily disseminated via the internet with our firewalls and the buffers we construct to mask our identity and where we live, I see that the swift, repeated posts from the usual are overwhelming. One posted opinion from a qualified observation far outweights the hysterical and numerous postings of a more frequent and outspoken visitor. Who's to say who's right?

In this case when making substantial allegations against someone specific and their business, I am of the opinion that one needs to be detailed, with facts, dates, instances of personal observations not based on second hand information.

From what I've read in this thread, I have not come across any substantiated instances that would be definitive or pass a test in a court of law that this kennel or these people are anything like described herein.

Now post away --- but I challenge you. Post factual and from personal knowledge. Refer us to published fact, not urban legend or something you heard at the truck stop.

Do this with integrity, not without impunity. Be honest, forthright and speak from experience. Personal experience, not what you heard from someone who heard from someone who heard ....................and so on.

If you REALLY read all the posts, you would see she HAS reported this breeder to the authorities. (Quote from earlier post: "I have reported them to every agency I can think of. I reported to the Humane Society last week and am hoping and praying they will do something.")

Unfortunately it can take years of complaints and multiple inspection failures before anything ever seems to be done. Sometimes a good news report does more to sway these "authorities" into shutting the horrors down. This thread looks like it has plenty of first hand information from those who have seen the place, have had to deal with the traumatized puppies, and tried valiantly to report to authorities. But thank you -- it is good that you are bringing the thread up to the top of the reading again. I like to see these ongoing battles stay in the limelight so people can BEWARE.

Wow- maybe you are the one who needs to get a life.

Yep. Every reply to this thread brings it back up to the top of the "new posts" thread list, so more people are going to become aware of it and see these first-hand bad experiences. It will make this thread easier to find in a Google search, too, so if anyone that is thinking of purchasing from this kennel searches to see if they can find any info, they will have no problem finding and reading this.

There's an old saying about a pot and a kettle....

You are doing the exact same thing you are accusing others of--judging people without any first hand experience of their character. Congrats! Now you are just like everyone else here that you have so diligently berated. :thumbup:

Yeah what Bama said!!!!

Like you, I just read through the posts too. If there wasn't enough red flags in this situation (i can't say breeder, for obvious reasons) then, why you just cleared it with the remainder red flags. Is this what you call a letter of recommendation? Letter of support?

Do you know what a breeder is? Reputable breeders don't have new folks doing this. We love yorshire terriers. They mean something different to us than people like you.

Actors that lead people to buying sick dogs. :thumbdown

Paul great to meet you and welcome to YT :welcome4:. So glad that you found us today and are giving such wonderful reviews of Still Kennels. How are you today? I just checked out the website. If I'm looking at the correct website it seems that Still Kennels is located in Missouri. Missouri and puppymill go hand and hand in the dog world but I'm sure that if you say so this must be a great place.

Wow what a deal with Yorkies that are selling rock bottom prices between $200-$400! The sparkle in their eyes just shows their health! I just loved the pictures of the dog houses on the home page of their site. :thumbup: They look luxuries and a fine place to keep all of the Cavalies, Frenchies, s**tzuies, Chihuahua and of course Yorkies! Let me see if I can get all their names correct :) We have Manly (who is the only Chi :confused:), Pierre, Princess and Pat the French Bulldogs, Denise and Jackie the Shiztzus, Mary, Faith, Foxy and Robinanne, and of course the Yorkies Puncan, Megan (I have a daughter by the name ;)), Jasmanie, Mac and Funny. Funny sure looks pretty sad in her/his picture but maybe he just is a little camera shy;)~then we have more doggies up at the top of the picture who are not listed. Hmmm, maybe they are the lucky ones that live in the doggy houses on the home page. Tinky, Angie, April............wonder who else could be hiding :cool: In the happy homes looks like there is a German Shepard, Poms and a couple that I am not sure what the breed is by the picture. Boy are they all cute. Oh well~I'm sure you will be around YT for a very long time and I'm hoping you accept my friend request. :) You are so right when you say these YTers are just full of gossip and innuendos. That was a great site and I'm sure that you will not be the only one to come alone to tell use how wonderful they are and the quality pets they breed.

Jodi, is it time you got another mill kid, like that cutie with the hat? Based on Paul's rave review, I'll bet you've already ordered one!

Jodi- you crack me up.

We know they just put two dogs together to mate. When these puppies grow up with health problems, where do they go? This is a prime example about why we have legislation trying to ban breeding.

What is a Puncan? A bird?

Hello Paul,
Are you trying to imply that you are Paul Lancia of Providence? There is only one Paul Lancia in the area. The Paul Lancia I know of went to Northwestern.

:confused:

Amen sister!
