I would be highly skeptical of any breeder who spoke with certainty about adult weight, especially 3 pounds. A breeder can make an educated guess, but they should stipulate that it is nothing more than a guess.

It's always best to see the AKC documents of the parents before making a commitment.

Hope the puppy is healthy now.

Well I understand they are guessing but how is it possible that a 3.2 pound female and 2.6 male can make a 5 pound going 6 pound baby? Is that saying two average size people having and 8 foot tall person, that's just not possible, it just genetics. So yet we were lied to again, or I am not understanding something. And these same two parents had another two litters in the last two months and I KNOW that isn't possible, dogs are pregnant for at least two months.

And the ACK papers I wish I would have known that before. I only thought to ask if he registered the puppies not to see the papers of the parents.

She's still coughing and still on antibiotics.

Yes, I have. I bought a puppy for my mom for mothers day. My friend found the site for me, she doesn't know anything about Yorkies and was just trying to help because she knows how much my mom wanted one. I had read in a magazine to call and talk to SOMEONE, not a machine. To make sure that the parents were on site and ask about registration, ect. ect. ect. I had this big long check list and everything SEEM to check out.

He assure me that the puppies are registered, when I asked about the AKC. He told me that the parents were on site, there shots were up to date, but when I asked if I could come see the puppies his first excuse was that the puppies were still too young(yet they were listed at 10 weeks old), the second excuse was that he was out of town. What I wanted to say was then whose watching the puppies, but I just left it. But on the web site it looked like the puppies were well taken care of and the 'Hill' family all pitches in and helps. He also assured me that the puppy fully grown would fit in my mom's purse, being 3 pounds.

The night we went to go pick up the puppies, I sent my mom to go pick up the puppy as a surprise. When she got back with the puppy she said that she heard the parents in the other room and he only let them in the front living room, thought everything still appeared clean. But when I looked at the puppy she looked way bigger than what I had asked. But he assured me that she would be small, so I again left it alone.

Within the next week the puppy started coughing and so I sent a text to Jason about it because I remember him telling me that if the animal is sick within the first month he would pay the vet bill, he informed me that it was kennel cough don't worry about it that all puppies get it and it will go away. But then she started getting a runny nose and it got worse. I took her to the vet, and it turns out that it was kennel cough and that she needed antibiotics. I texted Jason again at this time, and seemed to mad that I took her too the vet and he would not pay bill.

Next came the papers, Jason had informed my mom that they would come in the mail. When they came they were from the CKC not the ACK, from what I've been told is that the this is not a reputable registry. And the parents listed were not the same as the ones on the web site, so by this time I was very confused. I know that some dogs have 'stages names' but these were far fetched names they were no where near the same names. And if they were ACK registered I would be able to look them and see if they were really the parents or not, but because its CKC they don't always the picture on file.

By this time, seeing all these lies I was very frustrated and not sure what to say to him. By I confronted him about it and he would not respond.

Now I've been tracking my puppies weight and her size, she was suppose to be 3 pounds. She is now 5, and is charting to be twice the weight he promised me. Now if this was my dog I would just let it go but this I pointed out several times in the phone call and he assured several time that he has 27 years experience and that he's rarely wrong when it comes to weight. Now he is tell me that he has no guarantee's, this upsets me because this is my mother present and she's been wanting a small purse Yorkie and still doesn't have one. I paid A LOT of money for this puppy and still don't have want she wanted. If I want a 6 pound Yorkie I would have gotten the 800$ Yorkie he has listed. Or better yet I would have gotten a 5 pound Yorkie for 600$ somewhere else!

I asked him how we can resolve this and all he is offering is too give me another dog for the SAME price as I got for my puppy... I am sorry but I am not insane and wont fall for the same trick twice. I think something needs to be done about this breeder, its crazy how he keeps getting out of doing anything he says he's going to do.

Today I received an e-mail reply asking if I wanted to make a deposit on him and I replied that I was waiting to hear from them first because some breeders do not seem to keep their websites current. I also asked to confirm that he is AKC registered/registerable. Then I googled the address that they give on their website as their home and discovered that the address does not exist. The address provided on the website is 22800 N 22nd St. Phoenix, Arizona, but when I google mapped it, it is an easement across the street from an elementary school which is 22801 N 22 Street). There are no houses on N 22 street. Their "Reviews page" led me to the name "Jason Hill Yorkies" which led me here. I feel like I just dodged a bullet! And it's interesting that the sire "Winston" is still listed as 3 years old and being that this thread goes back to 2010, "Winston" if he really exists has to be at least 7 years old by now.

Wish I had come here first before buying a puppy from Jason Hill. I have a sick puppy that he claims is my fault. Had the puppy only a few days when she became sick. He claims it's because I didn't take her to the vet. Now she is coughing which of course he states is also my fault. Only had her two weeks and have spent a small fortune. States his health guarantee doesn't cover her being sick and that I should return her because "I can't take care of her". I contacted his vet who stated they haven't seen any of his puppies since 2001! He's also threaten to take me to court if I don't stop contacting him. SEE YOU IN COURT!!!!! Jason Hill is a backyard breeder, a liar, and a crook.

Jason,
Unfortunately I decided to dont get a puppy from you. I have made my researches and have found too many red flags and Im not willing to take this risk. First of all, I know the dog you are sending me is NOT the one in the picture. In Fact, I have been looking on the website and every week you update the website and keep saying that the dog is 10 weeks old, for a month now, and the dog is STILL available even though i gave the deposit to hold and reserve it. And when I called you, you told me the dog was 8 weeks old. I have asked you so many times for more pictures of the dog, and you said you dont have it. How is that even possible?

Anyways, I could go on and on here about every single little detail that is not right but you know then, you know I know them too so doesn't even matter at this point.

I made a deposit of $100 dollars. Im backing out not because I dont want the dog anymore or I have changed my mind, but because I have found that many of the things you said is NOT true and Im not willing to take this risk. So, You can decide if you want to be honest enough to give my money back, or you can keep it as non-refundable. But, Im telling you, If you keep if, I will consider a lost, but you can wait to have a very bad review online. And Im sure my $100 will be nothing compare to the hurt my review will do to your business.

Let me know,

Louise.
