Missing Yoshi Everyday! Donating Member | William's Cattery & Kennel Has anyone heard of them or have experience with this particular kennel? A lady that had puchased a female maltese from me a few years back...recently purchased a yorkie from his particular kennel...and I had mention to her that I am looking for a male yorkie also so she gave me a link to their website...and I just wanted to find any info I can on them to see if they are in fact a good kennel or a puppymill. http://www.rwilliamspuppy.com/ Any help will be greatly appreciated...thanks!

| I don't have any knowledge of these people, but, it's not a place I would consider buying a puppy from. It just doesn't appear they are giving any thought to breeding to better the breed, just a business for them. This is just my opinion from what I read.

| They are about 1 1/2 hrs. East of me and this is the first I've heard of them. I would be concerned buying from them. They wean their puppies at 6 weeks and they said they let their puppies go at 8 weeks old. Smaller ones go at 10 to 12 weeks. They don't have pictures of their puppies that are for sale and the ones that they DO have on the site are not very impressive. Their ears are huge and not shaved, which makes me wonder how much time they put into them. Plus, they only guarantee their puppies for 14 days!! 1 yr. for congenital defects and that is only if you take the puppy to the vet, at your expense, within the first 72 hrs. I would be very, very leary.

| i dont like the fact that they bring the puppies into thier house at 6 or 7 weeks of age to get use to people?? that just seem wrong to me, the puppies should be in the house from the time they are born. i have a bad feeling about this place. |

| Red Flags!!!! USDA license is a definite red flag! They are most likely millers and only because they show a picture of a clean kennel doesn't make them good breeders! I agree with previous posts. The dogs shown on their website are not impressive and their ears are huge. They look like bat babies. I also don't care for that weird look in their faces, not a happy disposition in my opinion. Not showing pictures of the puppies and not listing their current weight is not desirable! The health guarantee is a joke! I would not buy from them! Many people on here had to search high and low for the prefect puppy and breeder and many had to travel a great distance for their new bundle of joy. |

| I feel the same way U do. My dolls are with me from the second they are born! I don't leave them. I sleep in the same room as they do. Maybe I'm to protective??? But to me those babies looked like they didn't have a bath in a few days. Their coat looked greasy. I don't know I wouldn't feel good about letting them go that early either. My babies was with me until they all was 12 weeks old. Hugs, Lee |

| Well it looks like they keep all their animals in cages. So right there, I would never purchase from them. I think it is evil and cruel to cage any animal their whole lives! I would only purchase from a breeder who only bred on a small scale and let all her dogs have run of the house and were members of the family. thats the only way to go for me. |
