AKC Suspension List - PLEASE READ Before Choosing a Breeder

I am not sure how to more clearly point it out to you!

Again, I agree with you that by far AKC is the best registry and I am also of the opinion that their method of inspection is accross the board better than any other, so I am not sure of the point? Honestly, I dont' have any desire to discuss every tiny regarding CKC, their procdures or that of any other registy for that matter nor. If anyone wants more information regarding their guidelines then I suggest you contact them and have them explain it in detail.

I also base my opinion from experiences and communication not limited to just the printed words on a website. (Who in their right mind would limit their research and decisions to just that!? Generally speaking, if you don't want to view that as a factual source and take that into account, then by all means don't.

As for what I'm tired of reading, I'm tired of reading others praise AKC as a flawless entity and unfairly label anyone who doesn't follow their lead or use their registration. (in a perfect world would the piece of paper a pedigree is printed on be the only factor in determining dedication and quality.) And probably so even more tired of having to defend MY OPINION or being accused of lying just because my opinion doesn't mirror those of others.

By having a breeder sign the form saying that they are willing to submit to inspections is not the same thing as saying that they do inspections.

For the love of Pete! Fine, sobeit! I am tired of arguing about it...this could go on and on, each of us with clever ways to re-interpret each others claims until the end of time and it wouldn't make any differece! In the end it is up to the individual to research based of the information--ALL of the information and all of the opinions, no matter how differ--and make their own decision in the end.

So I concede for the sake of my own sanity and everyone else's who got sucked into reading this!

(Plus, I don't want to cause majestic any emotional distress! )

I am an akc only breeder but there is a flaw, akc will reg sister t brother breeding that has and aways will bother me it is wrong to do that type of breeding but they will akc the litter and I don't agree with that, come on guys no more debates we should all be friends here, I think we are all good breeders here none of our names were on that list, right? So we all must be doing something right, have a great weekend, I enjoy chating with all of you, Blessing to all Denise

This is very painful for me to talk about. I bought a precious Yorkie puppy from a so called breeder that had advertised in the AKC website. The woman rushed me to take the puppy at only 7 wks. of age. Within a week, the puppy had passed away, overnight. I was beside myself. The seller wanted nothing to do with me. In hindsight, recalling all of what she had said and done, I am completely convinced that she was not a breeder but rather a puppy broker. She had originally convinced me to purchase two brothers, claiming that they were "so bonded" but changed her tune a week later, stating that taking one at a time would enable the puppy to bond better with me than two. Everything that woman said and did tells me that she was a crook. Never let me see the mother and claimed that the father was "with his Handler". ... Still breaks my heart. Not to mention that she got $600.00 from me.
My heart goes out to all of you who are TRUE and REAL Yorkie lovers. Clearly that woman was a scam artist.

I know you are new to YT, but this isn't the section for posting that you want to breed. Welcome to YT and post in the breeders' section. I suggest you read a lot in that section to learn about studing your puppy.

Welcome to the forum.

My wife I went to purchase our new puppy... at this GOD AWFUL puppy mill in Bonham, Texas. We had spoke to him several times on the phone and we impressed by his nice words, chatty personality and love for his pets. We had also had a metal friend who raved about her new puppy that she purchased from this man Steve at metal.com
We were completely taken of guard to what we were walking in to. Regardless, she never went to his home to witness the cruelty that this man Steve and his wife do to this poor animals. They have 3 to 5 dogs in this small, metal cages...resembling a hen house with their cages all along the side of the wall with the metal cage opening from them the pee and poop. These poor dogs have wrist bands listing their name, birth date and purchase price; meanwhile they are covered in their own along with their other cage mates urine and pisces. Some of these dogs are almost a year old.. the ones he hasn't sold, because he lists them at $6,000.00 My wife to save an older dog, because she felt sorry that he never had a home. It was so heartbreaking to see that he was so scared that he was shaking, because he has lived his whole life in this small cage (shared with other dogs) that we put him on the grass, he didn't know what to do, but to only get back into the small cage that he was used to. My wife started crying, begging me to let her adopt them all (she was an amazing heart) Not only was I upset to see her like this, but I promised myself to let others know that this sad, grown man Steve chooses to make this his occupation. His neglect and cruelty to this poor dogs, who live in an shed with no air conditioner in 104 degrees Texas weather, clearly shows and is undeniably noticed by anyone who encounters it. I pray that no-one will encourage this puppy mill by purchasing their new puppy from this man Steve at metal.com If you strongly feel that you want to add your newest member of your family from this man, I can only ask for your to go to his home and witness the exact same cruelty that we had experienced to let that influence your decision. I can only hope that Steve and his wife will realize that their greed has become metal cruel to these poor helpless animals. I also hope that they will find God in their heart and realize the difference between right and wrong. Please do not encourage this man Steve at www.yourpup.com

i found the list that was posted under a different section in the forum: AKC Suspension List: Complied by Sarah Henery for Yorkies of Walnut Hill

[WalnutHill]

Yeah, I noticed a couple of months ago that the old link wasn't working. That's when I decided to make a new one. It is important information to have out there, so I decided if I didn't do it, it might not get done. . I am still working on it, hoping to go all the way back to 2002 eventually.

what does refusal or throwing down of a ribbon mean?
