Fancy Pups In Texas??? They have Very beautiful babies..But Before I made an appointment with them, I wanted to know if they are Good Breeders. I feel good about them, But It seems that everyone I have chosen has been bad. I am HOPING this is not case with them. Does any one know anything about them, or have any intell? Thanks, Jayden :aimeeyork:animal36:aimeeyork |

Can you post a website? It helps people look for redflags who do not know this breeder. |

There is not much information on the website, but what there is sends up many red flags for me. First, the puppies are being sold at only eight weeks old. Yorkie puppies should not be sold until they are at least 12 weeks old according to the YTCA. Why is there a one day viewing tomorrow only? That is very suspicious to me. There are no adult dogs shown, no basic information or pedigrees, no health guarantee or contract. They stress cash and carry. I would not even consider this breeder. |
It seems a little odd that there's no info about the parent dogs there... it really makes me wonder if they're reselling pups from other locations. |
alot of there puppies are born on different dates in the same month and on or two does not look full blooded |
Well, I didn't recognize the Fancy Pups name but I was curious since it was in Texas so I went to look at the site. I clicked on "about us" and as soon as that picture popped up, I knew who it was. Their names are Jon and Jimmie Rascoe and they are in Manvel, TX (right outside Houston). That's who we got Tatum from 5 years ago. I can only tell you that we are very happy with Tatum. Besides the fact that she's got the best personality (for us), she's not had one single serious health issue. By that I mean anything hereditary or breed-oriented. Our search for a Yorkie pup was a little scary and I was quite naive about the breed. We almost got suckered in by a lady named Betty (she's been discussed here at great lengths) but after leaving her house (or dump) puppy-less, we went to the Rascoe's house (we saw their ad in the Houston Chronicle). We were actually very pleased with the house and with Jimmie (the woman) and we were shown the parents (or so she claimed - I guess you never really know for sure) but I was told that the other puppies were out in the kennel. From a quick glance, it looked like a big building that was probably AC controlled and all of that but like I said, I was naive about the whole thing and didn't ask a lot of questions. I do know she/they bred other breeds because she had a dog (can't remember the breed right now) in labor in the house when we were there. They seemed very caring and the puppies that she brought into the house for us to look at (because I told her I was looking specifically for a female) looked to be very well taken care of. Jimmie showed us how to trim Tatum's ears and did it for us (although they had already been trimmed previously) so that we could see exactly how to do it. She also sent us home with a new tube of Nutrical and gave us the speech about what it was for. Maybe more than you wanted to know but I just wanted you to know that someone has had experience with them. I don't know if I would buy from them again - I honestly can't say - but what we did get from them is 100% lovable, healthy Yorkie. Good luck in your search! |
Went to look at their site a little more and I've gotta say..... "Gracie" (female pup) is pretty darn cute! "Giggles" too. |
Thank You So Much For Intell. I am Glad That You Had A pleasent eperiance with them. I spoke with Jimmie tearly today, & she seemed very nice. I have been looking for a female yorkie for almost a year now. & I also almost got suckerd in by a man named Jeff Dane. Yorkie Pup .com Home page. Teacup Toy & Standard Yorkies I am sooo very thankful that I found YorkieTalk.com & found out that I would have been making a horrible mistake. |
These people are brokers not breeders. Just ask them and they will tell you. They are very nice and know alot about the breed, but they do not have the parents at their home. Just be very careful.... |
I'm sorry but I don't know what the diffrence is..Are they a puppy mill? Can someone inform PLEASE? I go to see them tomorrow. |

Reputable breeders care about where their puppies go and would never allow a third party to sell them. Puppies sold through brokers are a cash crop. They are bred for profit only with no concern for the breed standard, genetic heath issues, etc. It's cash and carry. The worst way to buy a puppy IMO.
