i had that same impressions when i first went to their website...and seen the picture of the kennel..it gave me the chills...but i was trying to give it a benefit of a doubt...because not all kennels are puppy mills....

I looked at their site, noticed a lot of spelling errors, which sends up a red flag for me. Not to mention the amount of puppies and the look of the buildings

Yes, I understand that most puppies wean around 6 weeks. Around... I don't like the fact that they just take the puppies off at 6 weeks and that's it. The dam will lead the weaning process and it's much better for the puppies to have it done that way.

Don't give up! There are lots of good, reputible breeders in your area!

I agree with you that we should give people the beneifit of the doubt.
But to me there are loads of cages, and im just thinking that if any of my girls had puppies, and they were shoved in 1 of those kennels, it would break my heart.

yes my thoughts exactly...it gave me the creeps when i first went to that website...and seen the kennel...it was sorta like the feeling in a horror movie...its kinda hard to explain...thanks!

i have seen this thread but never look at this person's website.
hard to say...usda usually means they have lots lots lots of dogs. if it is just the two of them taking care of the dogs/cats. that is alot of work.
also, the puppies they have for sale, they don't show pictures of them. maybe they are too busy to take photos.
just my opinion, i could not say if i would purchase one or not. some have champion lines??? they are akc certified.
no photos of the dams and sires
hummmmmm i just couldn't say

do they have the pedigreeds to show you? Are the pups healthy? Will they let you take the pup to your own vet for a check-up and the option to return if not healthy?

xxmxaxrxyxx · 06-18-2007, 11:55 AM

I don't see any on their website...so I couldn't answer your question...

out of curiousity...would you happen to be Buddhist...because most people don't believe in Reincarnation...kekek...you don't have to answer me...I am just curious..

They have to keep them outside because they have way too many dogs and cats; so there's probably no room for them all in the house. This is a big red flag to me. A REAL breeder would have those babies in the house and make them a part of the family from the day they're born. I would not purchase a dog OR a cat from these people. Their website is enough to make me very suspicious and leary.

Count the number of small cages and thats just in 1 building! Way to many animals to give them 1 on 1 care and attention unless they have a huge staff. I don't see any exercise area except for one 6 x 12 looking kennel. Showing pictures of a set up like that does not impress me, it gives me the creeps! The pictures say mill to me all day long. Mabey a nice mill , but still a huge operation. Nobody need to own that many animals unless they are going for the big bucks. The pictures that they do have of their yorkies don't seem of quality to me. JMO

ImCKN · 06-22-2007, 10:23 PM

If you have any reservations, please don't buy!! I feel not having puppies in the house until they are weeks old is abuse. I have all puppies in the house and socialization starts the day they are born. I let the puppies be loved and fed by their mother, but also loved by us, too. Please report this "breeder" to the authorities.

xxmxaxrxyxx · 07-26-2007, 01:07 PM

i didn't buy from them...their images scared me off...keke....

however i did finally get me a male yorkie....he is such a cutie...i guess good things come to those who wait...

in my case i been searching for a over a year...keke
