Default Bad Really Bad Breeder's UGH

Well I have to rant about people on craigslist Just let me tell you I would never buy a Yorkie off Craigslist.


there is 2 breeders of Yorkie's on craigslist.

A man had Yorkie-poo's and AKC Yorkie's well the AKC Yorkie's looked to be crossed with Poodle's and they looked sick he was charging 1,000 at first then he took it down to 800 dollars for no akc. Well Low and be hold a person bought one of his dogs and well had to take it to the vets as it had a very over loaded worm and it was really sick. (i don't understand how people can treat dogs like this IF your going to breed them at least treat them with respect and kindness)

I was very tempted to buy one of his dogs as My heart was speaking over my head but I am glad i waited and didn't support this back yard breeder.



then there was this women:
UGH She pissed me off the big time with selling her small teacup Yorkie's. She was breeding them very small she said in her ad that they wouldn't grow up over 2-lbs full grown How can anyone not see this isn't right I felt so bad for these dogs they don't even look Pure bred Yorkie they looked to be Brussel griffon-Yorkie cross.


I Also learned the hard way about scammer's as I was scammed for 300.00 for a Yorkie but I should have known something was fishy from the get go But my heart was over my head not thinking straight. I will never ever trust anyone who wants to ship a puppy to me to risky situation for it.





I am proud to Announce I found My Yorkie Pup He has been here now for 5 days. His name is Little-Man I paid 1,000 Dollars With breeding Rights and his AKC paper. He is really smart He is potty training quiet well eating great. I was worried at first he wouldn't eat but he proved me wrong and growing like a little weed.

Both his parents were over 5-lbs but not by much and very beautiful i wish i would have taken pic's of them. I can't wait til he grow's up and see his beautiful color and coat.

You definitely won't find a reputable breeder on Craigslist. A reputable breeder though also won't give you breeding rights. You might want to get insurance on him and please neuter him and don't breed him.

No I didn't. Reputable breeders don't give breeding rights like that because they would extremely hard on their lines and don't want any one just using them. Just because a dog is AKC doesn't mean it's good enough to breed. Breeding should only been done to better the breed and the only dogs bred should be excellent examples of the breed and you won't know if he is one until he is an adult. You also don't know his lines many generations back so you don't know about health issues in his lines so you could be breeding a dog with certain illnesses that run in his lines so you could be setting up the pups to have health issues and suffer there whole lives. Many of us here spent a lot of money on our yorkies but got the fixed. Breeding should be saved for the reputable breeders. Spending a lot of money dosen't automatically mean it should be bred. Do you even know what tests need to be done on him before you breed? You do know that after being bred he will pee all over your house. He could also get seriously hurt or killed trying to get to a female in heat that he can smell.

I know everything i am doing and. you Don't Know me At all so that is okay that you have your opinion.

But this is the last time i will respond to this as i don't intend on arguing with anyone on a something they have a opinion on weather or not someone should breed or not to breed.

We have so many bad breeders out there and so many dogs being killed in shelters yearly, over 2 million. By breeding this boy without knowing his genes will make you one of those bad breeders. Why would you want to take the chance to possibly set puppies up to suffer their whole lives because you just wanted to breed him and didn't know his lines had some bad genetic issue? Do you know what it's like to watch a dog suffer from terrible genetic issue? I do and I see it everyday and it's terrible for a poor dog suffering looking into your eyes wanting to know why and not understanding. Please don't be one of those bad breeders please. He didn't come from a good reputable breeder so his lines are not worth continuing. Reputable breeders keep their pups until they are 12 weeks old and don't give breeding rights. If you want to be a breeder and do it right go meet with some reputable breeders. Please.

I'm happy you've begun a wonderful life with a Yorkie puppy. The best breed in the world as far as I'm concerned - fiercely terrier temperaments(cannot beat a terrier for 'heart' and utter determination to achieve its goals) and an easy size for those who want or need smaller dogs. They think they are Great Danes as far as size and are exceedingly brave little cusses! Make great watch dogs and are eternally fun, bright, entertaining, feisty, loving, loyal companions who love learning new things and working. Give a Yorkie a job and he's in heaven!

Please leave dog breeding to the experts who breed only for the improvement of the breed, which takes years of experience in how to achieve healthy, happy dams and puppies once the whelping is done should undertake this enormous responsibility. Why breed your dog unless you know for certain the lineage of each of the parents for at least four generations is totally healthy, with proper vet health certificates for each dogs in the lineage certifying that dog free of all of the genetic problems Yorkies are known to carry. Don't be a 'bad breeder' yourself - i.e., those who breed willy-nilly, who don't study and understand genetics or know or care whether or not the dogs they breed have any history of genetic hereditary problems. Only those who have been mentored in dog breeding/whelping for at least two years or more by excellent, knowledgeable, highly respected breeders in their breed and those who've personally studied dog breeding/whelping and have a full foundation in breeding genetics, have a fair certainty of what the breeding pair will produce and have at least 'vet tech' knowledge of dog medics should ever undertake breeding any dog and purposefully bringing a litter of puppies into this world, a world that yearly kills millions and millions of unwanted, overbred dogs.

This country is awash in shelters brimming to the fill with unwanted, abandoned dogs, so many that they now must turn undesirable dogs away, take those they house only for a certain time before one-by-one, when each baby's 'time is up', to the awful 'kill room' and administer an utterly deadly medication or gas by the tens of thousands of innocent little dogs somebody allowed to be conceived and whelped, every single week this earth whirls by. And ' no kill' shelters can only take a limited amount of dogs, thus turning away those they cannot take to a death at the hands of its owners by drowning, shooting or turning the dog loose or abandoning it to another shelter.

It's appalling how many people breed dogs with no thought for bettering the breed but just to produce more puppies, often to make back the price they paid for their dog! Why? Why bring more puppies into the world unless you are expert enough to know with a fair certainty you will be breeding dogs with excellent health heredity, long lines of vet certifications of genetically healthy bodies, fine terrier temperaments and have every conviction should be better quality Yorkshire Terriers than the parents in every respect? Otherwise, you could likely just be adding to the Yorkshire Terriers' many genetic woes.

Just Google "YorkshireTerrier genetic health problems" and read up on the many genetic issues likely most of today's Yorkies inherit at birth and please enjoy your baby as your beloved, forever pet, not a potential danger to any future puppies he might sire. He sounds adorable and is worth his price by just being there for you, bringing you his love, his companionship, all the joys and fun experiences you are about to have but unless you are an experienced Yorkshire Terrier breeder, please don't breed just to bring more puppies into a world absolutely glutted with them. Rather just enjoy that baby every day you are blessed to have him and take lots of picture to share with us!

You're right we don't know you, however I can't imagine a reputable breeder would only charge $1000 for a puppy with breeding rights. And your comment about not fixing a $1000 dog suggest you don't care about the breed or breeding responsibly. This $1000 puppy can develop major faults and you're just going to pass that on to future generations because you spent $1000 on a puppy which by the way isn't a lot of money for a puppy.

Two dogs can always "breed" and it wouldn't take much on your part to "know what you are doing." Paying $1,000 is not a lot of money for a well-bred pup and surely isn't an indication if the dog should be bred. Breeders dedicate their lives to the breed and do not breed without health testing plus conformation titles. For true breeders, it's likely they never see a profit. If you're hoping to be reimbursed for your expense I implore you to change your mind. Volunteering at an animal shelter and seeing the massive amounts of "pet quality" dogs euthanized would surely give you a different perspective.
