Were the parents on site, sounds like you got a mini instead of a teacup. besides if there are that many babies, seems wrong since i was told tea cups are too tiny to have that many. and he has 6 on the site for sale.

Tank is a mini and there were 7 babies in his litter.

Actually as far as yorkies go, thereis no such thing as teacup, mini, toy, standard, etc. all yorkies are under the toy category and the standard states not to exceed 7 pounds. Breeders and brokers who use terms such as teacup mini, micro, etc are just trying to scam you for more money.

I think the only dog that is officially categorized as mini, teacup and standard are poodles.

In regards to your other accusations. I haven't PMed anyone from behind the scenes. I joined this forum years ago, and as you can see from my history, I haven't been on this site in years.

Just because you have not posted in years, does not mean you have not been on the site and messaging people! PMs don't show in the number of posts.

I think so. Wow you guys are good. I couldn't find it. He scammed me, I called when I first took her to the vet and faxed him everything. He never called back or picked up when I called. He only called a few months later when I left a message I was getting a lawyer then he wanted to swap my baby with another one.

Tank is a mini and there were 7 babies in his litter.

He said I could meet him at his house to see the parents, but when I got there he wanted to meet me at a store parking lot. My son instantly fell in love with her.

Hi

I'm so glad to hear your baby is doing better!

Was wondering, has anyone else on this site had a bad experience with this breeder? That anyone knows of......

LadyDaisy · 07-01-2013, 12:46 AM

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.

DBlain · 07-01-2013, 12:58 PM

the first mistake you made and still want to make is looking for a 3lb yorkie, those 3lb yorkies are runts and those bred to be small on purpose are often likely to have more problems than a standard size yorkie of about 5-6lbs. Breeders selling toy yorkies and talking about tiny weights are not going to be good breeders so it's the luck of the draw what you wind up with health wise. The only way to get a puppy and have a good idea what the weight will be is to buy one around 4 to 5 months of age, and even then their can be surprises. I am not sticking up for this breeder because he does sound unethical, but if weight is your criteria those are the kinds of breeders you most likely are going to wind up with

DBlain · 07-01-2013, 01:03 PM

looking for "purse size yorkies", is what keeps web site bad breeders not only in business but able to charge inflated prices. If someone wants a 3lb animal get a guinea pig.

DBlain · 07-01-2013, 01:16 PM

sorry for sounding so harsh, I know you are knew so I guess you just don't know but if you read a lot in this forum you will see how many health issues people have with the very tiny yorkies. With people continuing to want them(because they do not know better) the circle just continues, and breeders just put their female breeding dogs at risk because they are breeding tiny ones that years ago would never have been bred.

And just so you know I am not a yorkie extremist or show breeder, just a pet owner who at the moment owns a 5.75 lb mix that still can fit in a carrier.
