| sissyspuppies.com I just found your wonderful site! I am looking to buy my wife a Yorkie, and this place is pretty close to me. They look adorable! its index Would you buy from a place like this? They seem like a nice family, the dogs are in the house, part of the family and look well. I also checked to see if any complaints are with AKC or USDA and there isn't. |

| After looking at their site, I would not purchase from them. I see no health guantee, not to mention, do they breed those 3lb females? They also have alot of other breeds, classic cars, gees what else to they sell! There are no pedigree's on the website to look at as well. JMO

| Look elsewhere. Advertises teacups (no such thing) advertising ploy. Breeds tinies.....a big no, no.

| I agree. Also noticed in the photos when they take photos of the yorkies, there are no other breeds out and about. The same with the other breeds. Seems like they have a lot of dogs and they are trying to give one picture of who they are when they are really another - you know what I mean. Also I do not like that they breed tinies. Not really thinking of the dogs - IMO. |

| At least one of their pics is being used for fraudulent yorkie sales ksl.com - Ad Listing I tried to find an email on their site to send them the link, but they don't have one? That is weird.

| I don't know if it matters or not, but several of the pictures of Yorkies they have used on their web site were "lifted" from shooterdog.com. The pictures are of Shooter, who is now deceased.

| Mmmmm, find it a bit unusual that the OP, lives in KY signed on today and asks a question about said breeder in KY. Maybe a set up????????

| I personally felt that some of the mom's looked very unkept, scraggly and ratty, especially the breeds other than Yorkies. Reminded me of the dreaded...... PM. Granted they had just given birth, but that is no reason to ignore hygiene and brushing. If I were trying to sell dogs, I would most certainly see that they were groomed when the pictures were taken. Maybe I expect too much.

Do you know anything about the one posted? Looks a bit fishy.

| I know I kind of wondered that on post #9.....Bad me for thinking that way. But, we've seen it happen too many times on here.

| no I don't Mary but I know there are a couple of breeders in Pikeville, Ky that are known for selling sick, illkempt dogs. i have people call me all the time from Pikeville and say they can't find anything decent in their area. I generally don't get into actually talking about the breeder when they start telling me things. I am about five hours away. There is a sayng hre, "Don't buy a puppy out of the Pikeville area" But i don't know why the breeder would make a post since it appears no one here has her puppies.
