Ugh, my dumb computer erased what I wrote. Anyway, I will post it in the open bc what I link is not slander or opinion, all I have posted is pure fact. I will not name the member, but all you need to do is read on and you will see who I am referring to. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...uppy-mill.html

I know exactly who you're talking about.

ETA: Just saw where you posted the link to that thread. Yep, that's who I was thinking of, too.

I know exactly of whom you're speaking of....When this person first joined, she sent me a friendship request.....I accepted (much to soon), then realized that she bred mixed breeds. Since then I've become a bit more cautious when accepting a friendship request.

an FYI pertaining to any posts one makes regarding a personal experience - it's called free speech - as long as it's a based on what YOU experienced - there's no reason for anyone to worry about repercussions if you are truthful and share your own feelings. Believe me - after the whole BRUSHY CREEK thing I went thru here after visiting there was a good example but I stuck to what I saw and posted about it. They didn't like me one bit but they ended up investigated and everything I said was found to be exactly as I described. I know they wanted my head but it's still attached :)

:eek: OH MY GOODNESS!!! :mad: I hope she is here to learn, repent and start doing the right thing!

Not sure, but still purposely breeding mixed breeds.

ps. Now that I re-read that puppy mill thread I realize who she is and she ain't even trying to do right. Grrrrr!

To me, she always seems to try to "one up" people whenever they have a disagreement, but she says the other person is the one who always tried to "one up". :rolleyes: Oh, did you read in some other threads that she wants to breed yorkies now too?

Nope, I thought she already did. Where's the thread.

I'll try to look for it. it was a few weeks back, and like I said she's been posting like crazy now. :rolleyes:

That was easy to find, she only started 3 threads total. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/bre...-breeding.html

I almost bought a puppy from sweet Yorkie kisses but after reading the reviews here, I've changed my mind. It's a shame too, cause the puppy I wanted is so cute (in pictures as I haven't seem him in person yet). I was thrilled when I came across sweet Yorkie kisses website as I've been looking for a teacup Yorkie or teacup morkie and haven't found any in my area (Anaheim, CA) but now I'm totally skeptical about buying one from this breeder. I got a weird vibe when I spoke on the phone with her, I felt like she didn't remember who I was, despite after talking 3 - 4 times and then I wasn't too happy about being asked to send the deposit via western union in her husband/partners name, that seems kind of shady, You'd think she'd take a check.
Anyway, your comments have helped me greatly, saved me some money (she was asking quite a bit of $$ for the Yorkie) only thing now is that I'm back to square one, searchng for a new member of our family. Any suggestions on where to look are greatly appreciated.

I'm located in West LA and have spoke to sweet yorkie kisses once too. I didn't know there was a website until she told me on the phone. After I saw it, I immediately knew she's a greeder. I tried to get off the phone by saying I'm going to look elsewhere, she kept saying "I just got in an accident and really need money, blah blah blah." :eek: Yeah, I knew my search continues. Her site has SO many redflags (teacups, multiple breeds). She has "partners"...I think they are a kennel and her "partners" are brokers or something. It's really sad!

I just want to point out that even Satan knows scripture.......



Just sayin

It is sad. I'm just glad I didn't move forward with the purchase. I've spent the last 3 hours looking for a reliable breeder online, hopefukky I'll find one soon!

Check The YTCA site for Yorkie breeders.
There are also some very good breeders here on this site.
Good luck.

IDK why people can't adopt yorkies. There are so many that could use a loving home!

Not everyone is lucky enough as you to adopt a cutie like the one in your avatar. I for one tried to adopt first and was turned down by all because at the time I had two children under 10! Some get turned down because they don't have a fenced yard! So now you know why some people can not adopt:)

You have to be very careful buying online there are alot of scams and bad breeders. The best scenerio is to buy from someone locally where you can visit the breeders home. If you dont do that you cant say for sure your not buying from a puppymill or byb

This story is sad :(

[QUOTE=McheleM;3601958]I just want to point out that even Satan knows scripture.......

:rolleyes:This is true.

I have found there are some very strong opinions on YT, and if you don't agree you can say so. This is an old thread that i just read from beginning to end. I always learn something new here. Thanks to all the PIs !;)

Aww thats true, they did ask a lot of questions on the application. I was actually surprised that they accepted me being that I live in manhattan.

I can see why its not necessarily as easy to be able to adopt. Before I found the rescue I adopted from I couldn't find a good breeder that I could trust to not take part in unethical practices.

Good breeders also make it hard to adopt. The breeder wants to ensure that this is permanent home for the puppy, and the buyers no exactly what they are doing. Too many puppy buyers are clueless when it comes to pet ownership, and you know they haven’t found a good breeder.

:thumbup::thumbup: daaaaaaang!

Tried, in Europe Americans in the military are known for dumping their dogs/cats before they go to their next assignment, thus adoption agencies (local) wouldn't adopt to me.

I really wish more people could adopt yorkies, unfortunately too many people (the irresponsible ones) ruin it for the rest of us.

I think it's a matter of finding the right rescue to adopt from. On paper, I shouldn't have been able to either as I had a child under 10 and no fenced yard. It took a bit of work, but I found two that didn't write me off because of either of those things.

Just like finding a good breeder takes time, so does finding the right rescue.

No Guarantees
 

I realize that this thread started a while ago, but I'm in the process of getting a little sister for my Yorkie girl who's two. I found a breeder, but you just never know. I did go to www.petfinder.com to see if I could adopt one, but not one in my area. A breeder I found only has 2-3 litters a year to sell. She mainly runs a dog grooming business. She has one female left. Because she sells both AKC and CKC registered puppies, it has been suggested I not buy from her.

I bought my Yorkie I have now from a breeder that was referred by the local kennel club. My puppy was also AKC registered and came with a health guarantee and papers. Within a year, she needed double knee surgery. As it turns out, once my Yorkie's vet got involved, my Yorkie wasn't the first of one of her dogs to have knee trouble, but she said it wasn't a covered condition. She eventually offered to take my Yorkie back, but by then I had fallen in love with her. Plus, what was the breeder going to do with her? I kept my girl, but the breeder did end up giving me another Yorkie girl from different parents. I gave her to my mom and dad and they love her. I guess what I'm trying to say is that you never really can tell with a breeder. I mean, here was one that came recommended and my puppy still had over $2000 in vet bills within a year.

While I'm nervous about buying another Yorkie, I'm excited at the same time. Again, you can never tell.
