| Most breeders who advertise T-cups care more about money than the health of the dog.

| Hi. My name is LeAnn. I had the same experience from him. We picked up the puppy from his house with his wife there. I asked her about the parents and she goes and gets me this little short haired dog matted really bad. 1st guys feeling, don't buy the puppy. The she extends the warranty to 1 year. OK maybe they aren't bad. On the way home the dog starts shaking and honking. My husband is totaly in love with this little dog by now. We call Jason. He says not to worry it's normal for a litter to get Kennel Cough. The next morning we take him to my vet. She puts him on antibiotics. OK...we call Jason and keep him updated. For months we go through this and he's getting worse. Thousands pile up in vet bills. One day before his 1st birthday he just grows out of it. He only honks every now and then if he gets excited. I called Jason one day because I went to his sight and found my dogs picture for sale,with the same name for the same price. This guy changes places, changes wives and is just a puppy mill. He needs to b SHUT down and put in JAIL! |

| You were lucky Gr33zyinc. But there certainly enough complaints on this site and with the BBB that you must admit Jason is NOT a reputable breeder. Especially posting older pics and selling puppies that are NOT depicted in the pictures. Shaking my head... |

| Re: seller Jason Hill @ yorkiematch.com I purchased what was supposed to be a "highest quality" "tiny, small" teacup yorkie puppy in Jan. 2015 for $1,500 from Yorkiematch.com. I was told by Jason, that she would be 5lbs or less as an adult but no guarantees (of course not) When I met with Jason, he had 2 puppies and neither of them looked to be the same dogs listed for sale on his website. He assured me they were the same dogs, they were older now than the pictures and since I promised my kids this puppy for their bday, I went against my better judgement and took one home (She was greasy and smelled of urine but got a bathed at home, right away). During the first week she seemed a bit lethargic and had diarrhea, but that cleared up with a little TLC. A few weeks later I phoned Jason regarding the fact that her hair was shedding (quite a bit) and questioned her being purebred as I hadn't received the CKC papers yet. Btw these are CKC reg not AKC. AKC is a lot more strict when registering dogs, as CKC is more lenient. (Also, I had (still have) 3 other yorkies at the time since they were puppies, so I kind of have an idea of what they look like during the different stages of growing) He again assured me purebred dog. By the time she was 2 mos she was looking less and less like a yorkie. I again questioned Jason as I was requesting the Registration papers. He stood by his words of her being 100% yorkie. To me, at this point I was searching yorkie mixes online and she was looking more like a chorkie (chihuahua/yorkie mix) hair still shedding and body colors not changing from dark black on her trunk and deep copper in ears chest and legs, her hair very wiry and not the typical silky yorkie hair. By the time she was around 2.5mos, I had a DNA test done on her and it came back 100% yorkie. At this point groomers were telling me she was an Australian terrier and she really did fit the bill. I just didn't believe the DNA results either, because looking at her, she doesn't look 100% yorkie Today Coco is 2.5 years old. I have determined that she is a Red Legged Yorkie aka Short coated yorkie. She weighs 11pds (no where near teacup size). She will never be able to been shown in any dog show because of the color and texture of her wiry hair that will never grow longer than 2 inch on most her body, her ear hair doesn't grow at all. Also, it's looked "down upon" to breed her because she could mess up the coloring in the blood lines. So if your looking for a puppy to mature into a show dog or a "highest quality" dog or even for breeding purposes, be very careful where you purchase. From what I've read, good trained breeders that "specialize" in this breed can/should be able to identify these traits in "their" dogs/puppies before selling them off as something else and will price them accordingly. |

I have made a complaint to the BBB, which has resulted in no resolution. My husband urges me to take it further. At this point its the principle, and there needs to be some sort of repercussions to wronging others. I do have a lot of time on my hands and am gathering info, speaking to other upset customers (there are many) and speaking with other local Yorkshire Terrier breeders. I am learning quite a bit about the yorkie breeding business and dotting my i's, crossing my t's. |

| Breeder Repsonse 1. Yes, as a breeder we register the litter when they are born. From there it takes a few weeks to get the papers. 2. I sent you the registration form which you then need to fill out with your information, and then give the dog the name you have chosen. At that point the Kennel Club will mail you the actual pedigree chart. 3. You came to my home, you clearly saw that the puppies are raised in very clean conditions. We've been breeding for 30 years. When a customer complains of a health problem, its not just as simple as pointing the finger to the breeder. 4. I have always responded to your messages. I told you what you needed to do, and you refuse to send the papers in to the kennel club. I have nothing else that I can help you with. You know we have spoken many many times. There is no scam, no deception. You met me at my house, you have my home address. There are some customers who don't like the idea of meeting me at my home so I have met them in public places before. 5. Once again I will reiterate what many others have said. Please do your RESEARCH read all of our reviews. If you don't like them then don't buy a puppy from us. Whomever you choose to buy a puppy from do your research. Don't buy a puppy like you would a purse. We have lots of positive reviews and lots of negative reviews. Research for yourself and make the choice on your own. |

| About a year ago, we learned that our senior “baby” would not be with us too much longer. Some time later, I dipped my toe in the water and spoke to a few breeders. It had been 15 years since my last search—golly, much had changed. Perhaps a month after we received our baby’s diagnosis, I spoke by phone with “tcupyorkie,” hoping to (1) get basic information about the puppies’ parents, (2) learn about vet record availability, and (3) find out if one could realistically *ever* prospectively view available puppies/litters. My interests were not satisfied in that conversation. It is possible I caught the breeder on a bad day, but I left the phone call believing I wasn’t going to get anywhere researching their pups/breeding program unless I was willing to first pay a non-refundable deposit. In one thread posted today, “tcupyorkie” wrote, “…do your research. Don't buy a puppy like you would a purse.” Ironic. How about not marketing puppies the same as you would a purse? We can all make a mistake, have an off day, pick the wrong userid, etc., but I suspect this breeder could do a better job all around if he/she/they were so motivated. |
