She was suspened for what you just posted. That dangrous.

I believe this is the same person advertising on AOL.classifieds too. I ready this ads alot and it is scary what is out there:eek:

I think this is wrong. If you have not bought a puppy from this lady how can you review her. It is just hear say!

If you really have proof of her doing something wrong you need to give her your name and number. I have not seen any proof of wrong doing. Brokering puppies may not be right but it is not illegal. Advertising Teacup is not illegal. Alot of older breeders us this term and mean nothing by it. It is the same as saying tiny to them.

I bought my yorkie from Loretta
 

A lot of you are commenting on a situation you have not been apart of. I am here to tell my side of this story.

I bought my yorkie from Loretta in Dec of 07. I chose to buy from her because I wanted a yorkie for Christmas/my college graduation present. She always seemed to have yorkies available and she was one of the only people I could find that actually had a yorkie puppy available two days before Christmas. Maybe I should have thought more into the reasons she always has yorkies available but like I said, that was a selling point to me.

So I got my little boy yorkie (Gizmo) from him and he was an incredibly cute puppy. He is the perfect dog for me. He has grown up the past year and a half with me and I have had no problems with him. He has more of an athletic build then the typical yorkie but he has the softest hair of any other yorkie I've ever come across. He has been to the vet routinely since I've gotten him. He's gone through extensive annual comprehensive physicals and he is an incredibly healthy dog with no health problems. He is the best money I have ever spent. And if I had to do it again knowing what I know about Loretta, I would still buy from her if it meant knowing I would be getting the dog I chose before because I wouldn't trade my dog for the world.

I do not condone puppy mills or puppy brokering but you have to look at it like this: The puppy was born into this situation which you had nothing to do with. All dogs deserve a good home and not having to live in a shelter or bad conditions. You gave that dog (which came from a bad situation) unconditional love, companionship, and the life it deserved. The puppies shouldn't be punished for their caretakers mistakes. So by originally not really knowing the situation my dog was coming from, I can look back now and not regret my decission because I know I gave this puppy a stellar life.

Small dogs often have health problems even when they are bred and raised in an ideal situation. Anyone "brokering" in this large quantity of dogs is bound to get a few with health issues. Like I said, I don't condone these situations but as bad or whatnot as this person may or may not be, in the end they are simply giving these puppies a home. At least these dogs arn't ending up in the already overcrowed animal shelters without a loving home. Things could be worse.

I'm sure most of them are at some point, or their offspring are since their irresponsible breeder is not having anyone sign a spade/neuter contract...

The problem is a LOT of the dogs involved with these puppymill/brokers do wind up in shelters or worse. If you look at many of the rescues, they are older females who have had most of the life bred right out of them. Some have breeding females that have never been outside a cage, never ran in a yard or park. Never had a human play with them. How sad is that?

I know it seems like the thing to do is rescue as many as possible from someone like that. But if you give her money, it is just enabling her to continue in the same manner. Honestly, I don't know, if I was faced with one sweet face I could save after seeing bad conditions, I might do the same thing. I know it is not the right way to go about it though. We have to stop encouraging puppymills with our money. But no way can I say I would not have done the same thing if I was in your shoes. When you love a puppy on site, sometimes logic goes right out the window. So, I am split. I know what a person should do, just not sure I could walk away without giving one little puppy a better life either. So for me, I just make sure I do not go look until I am sure the breeder is not a mill or broker. I have had to ban myself from even looking in the window of the mall pet shop too.

I bought my puppy from Loretta
 

I bought Giorgio from Loretta at 9 weeks old. I thought her house was very clean, and all the puppies looked very healthy. Giorgie has never had any health problems, thank God. I do not condone puppy brokering, but I did not know at the time. Giorgie is the best dog I could have ever hoped for. She gave me a canopy bed, some puppy food, shot records, and told me to call her with any concerns. She took time to explain to me how to care for him, and I really got the impression that she really cared about the puppies. I am thankful my experience with her was good, and am sorry for anyone who had a different experience. Giorgie is my best friend.

Words cannot explain in complete shock
 

We purchased our yorkie from Lorretta over a year ago and still haven't received our AKC papers. She has not returned any of our phone calls and did not disclose that her puppy were shipped from a puppy mill!!! Naturally I have discussed my frustrations with my family and it turns out she sold my cousin a 15 pound "yorkie" and she has been experiencing the same problem with the paper work. My husband and I were curious to see what info had been reported on her and that's how I came across this site. Thanks to everyone I wish I had know we could pull this info on our breeder ahead of time.

Lorretta it's amazing to hear from you my husband has been tryng to contact you for over a year, regarding our papers. You have NOT returned any of our calls we want to breed our yorkie but we need our papers.

who are you..
 

:mad:This message came to my email today... you better stop !!! first Of all there is no puppy mill. so STOP STOP NOW...slander will be reported to your local police dept.. Please leave you phone number so if your referring to me we can see if there is a answer to your problem.::aimeeyork

LOL.....do just that, okay....call up your local police department and report this...LOLOL....SLANDER....and, then wait....to hear the sound of a police dispatcher laughing out loud!

Police really have better things to do with their time, like investigating real crimes, robberies, rapes, murders, etc.

Perhaps if you handled your business in a professional manner you wouldn't have people posting on the internet about you??????

Or, a better idea....why don't you STOP brokering innocent puppies?

:thumbup::thumbup: LOL!! Exactly!!

lol all you want
 

what is your phone number? who are you?... if you have a problem and you called me. Call me again Instead of slandering and saying things you don't anything about Ill wait for you :mad: call

I'm sorry, but it's just hilarious how you talk to people. I don't know anything about you except the posts you have posted and that says enough to me. ISSUES is all I know to say. Have a wonderful day.:D

Sorry, I have to say this, it would appear you have done very little homework in looking for a breed quality Yorkie or you would not have bought from this woman. I hope you do not plan to breed her unless you are planning on bettering the breed.

Please take the time to look at the threads in our breeder section so you can do what is right for the breed and your little girl.

For someone so innocent, you sure are very defencive!;) Do you want my number as well, be GLAD to talk to you?

Since you are an "expert" of this breed, tell me, why would you suggest "no one should take a baby yorkie from mom till 9-10 weeks? Why would you place a puppy in a home with two small children? Why would you support APRI? Again just asking since you are the expert!;)

Hello everyone,

In Feb 2010 someone posted a comment on my website WARNING people not to purchase puppies from me because they were in bad health.

I just wanted to share with everyone that I am not the Loretta people are complaining about on the internet.

I reside in Chesapeake, Virginia, and to date I have had one litter, and sold only one puppy from that litter.

I am seriously thinking about changing my domain name and website content because I do not want to be associated with ANYONE that sells sick puppies.

Thank you.:aimeeyork:)

You say you are Loretta from LorettaYorkies.com. Do you mean that there is a LorettaYorkies.com (you) and a LorettasYorkies.com. and the only difference is the "S"? I would change my name because it looks like you are listed online with an "S" as well. http://lorettasyorkies.com/uploads/L...on_Deposit.pdf

Thank you for bringing my this to my attention. The correct website address is lorettasyorkies.com. Have a wonderful day!

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. The correct website address is lorettasyorkies.com (with an S). Have a wonderful day.

Lorretta's BAD
 

Hi. I had the unfortunate opportunity to get one of her sick and displaced puppies. U r correct about her. She lies. Takes cash only and charges $1500 dollars for them. Yes, I heard the "aunt" or nephew story too. I was angry for years and I hope she goes to jail someday and rots in her own cell. I will help u if I can.

Loretta's Yorkies
 

Hello all,

Just wanted everyone to know I too have a website named www.lorettasyorkies.com. I am located in Chesapeake, Virginia and I am not affiliated with Lorettas Yorkies out of CA. :animal36:animal-pa

I know I should probably change my website name but I have to much stuff with lorettasyorkies.com printed on it.

Just thought I put it out there incase you come across my website.

Have a wonderful day.

Loretta

I'm confuzzled. So are you saying that there is a lorettayorkies.com and a lorettasyorkies.com and neither one is the breeder in question? Is the breeder the OP spoke about even still in business?

I know, it's so confusing, because even though she says she's not the Lorettasyorkies from California on her webpage, that's the site that comes up when you do a search. I don’t think I would want to use the same name as someone with such a poor reputation.

Are you Joking? What we should be doing on this site is educating the new parents that are interested in adopting one of our babies. Not bad mouthing each other when there are other things in this world far more important. I will answer that for her... No one should take a baby yorkie from mom till 9-10 weeks becuase like the Maltese, Pomeranian and any other baby that is small and pron to fall with hypoglycemia this breed is very frigile and when/if there are tiny ones in the litter they should stay with their mommy longer. Why would you place a puppy in a home with two small children? Some children are in fact very gentle, You cant tell everyone with kids that they cant have a small dog because they have kids. Now I have seen some bigger kids act like animals when they came into my place and I told their mom she would need to pick a larger pup. I'm sure as a loving Breeder she checked it out. Why would you support APRI? Why not I support the AKC CKC IBC and most registration because lets face it they are all Dog registrations. THE AKC is not perfect! I know of many an AKC dog that when DNA tested turned out to be a mut. Sounds to me like dillion94 http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/ima...s/viewpost.gif knows her stuff! AGAIN What we should be doing on this site is educating the new parents that are interested in adopting one of our babies. Not bad mouthing each other when there are other things in this world far more important.

Be Well
Michele
Breeder of The Biewer Yorkie and The Chinese Imperial Dog

apologies
 

Hi, my true apologies that there has been a mistake in people thinking you are the person that is the awful puppy mill breeder. The Loretta that is bad has a last name of Plise. She is located in California. And if anyone questions you...they can look up past judgements through the court and see how many times she has been sued because there is PROOF she is bad.

Again, i apologize to you.

Loretta's Yorkies
 

Good morning all,

When I first purchased the domain name www.lorettasyorkies.com I knew nothing of Loretta Yorkies out of California. Had I known I would have used a different domain name.

I reside in Chesapeake, VA, and to date I've had two healthy litters and have references.

I am seriously considering changing my domain name. I spend way to much time trying to convince people I am not the Loretta who sells sick puppies.

I am wondering if Loretta from CA use to own the domain name I have now.

I am good person. I would never ever sell anyone a sick puppy!:animal36 :animal-pa

Have a wonderful day!
