Just checking in to see if there's an update from the OP. I hope everything was resolved for both parties.

After this length of time, I'm thinking the OP is either too embarrassed to come back and admit her mistake, or doesn't care that she started this thread and left everyone wondering. The first reason I could understand, if it's the 2nd reason - :thumbdown

I think this is the OP's way, more or less, of saying she did get the right puppy. She is probably too embarrased to come back on.

I feel she should have been more patient and talked to Glenda before she posted anything. I know puppies can look a lot different in pictures than they do in person. I just hope the little one has settled down and is adjusting well.

A shame......
 

That this has even occurred. Someone told me once......it you type it and send it.....its OUT THERE. I am thankful that I have a handful of experienced breeders that will help me when I have CRAZY questions......lol....and I wish that this OP would have gotten someone here on the phone to talk to.....did a search for this line, sent an PM to someone who could help answer her questions......all this while waiting for Glenda to contact her.

Unfortunately, I believe this OP is young and does not realize the damage that has been done.

:bulb:
I on other hand believe that you better have your facts correct BEFORE you post on any internet site.

The moderator could delete this thread.

She's new to this forum! We all make mistakes! She was upset, disappointed & had asked for advice here before. I say, let's give her a break.....give her the benefit of the doubt.....that she jumped to conclusions before thinking things through. She had an 11 yr old son, so she is a mature young lady, I would think. None of us know the whole story. If in fact, the wrong dog was sent to her, of course she'd be upset. It could have been a mix up. If not, maybe she had never considered some of the things that were mentioned here......such a long plane trip for a little baby. Let's discuss without cruelty. Everyone has there own opinions.....and that's great because it makes us all stop & think, but let's make it a place where everyone feels Welcome to do so. Hope she comes back to tell the whole story!

Sorry, My bad
 

Thank you everyone for your concern for this puppy. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had my vet look him over and he is indeed a puppy and not an adult as Glenda's vet had told me.

Glenda and I did contact each other and I have apologized to her for jumping the gun. As far as appearance, he has change quite a bit since the last pic she sent me. The paperwork and what her vet had told me didn't help ease my frantic state either.

I'm sure some of you can understand and get freaked out too if you just spent a pretty large some of money, something didn't seem right and being unable to get a hold of anyone. All in all, it was a terrible misunderstanding.

In the meantime, my attention has been on taking care of the puppy as he was very shaken up from the airplane ride and scared of his new surroundings. Glenda and I have been in contact with each other to try to get him to eat and drink and come out of his shell.

He's doing much better now, but will still take some time. He's eating and playing, but still on the nervous side. He loves following you around, cuddling by your feet, being tickled, laying on the sofa with you while you watch tv, but yet still scared and shaky when you pick him up and still likes to hide in his crate or underneath something. I also gave him a nice warm bath, so he is much fresher smelling and better looking than when he came from the airplane ride.

Right now, he is my utmost priority. The kids love him too, so I have helpers (when they're not playing video games).

Great news....
 

Good for you, I am very proud of you to come back and let us know......"the rest of the story".....and it sounds really good.

Knowing what I know about Glenda, I knew it must have been a error somewhere.....and it sounds like she is working with you to get the puppy acclimated.

I am really excited for you and look forward to the pics as he grows older.

:):D

Yorkie Baby.....thank you so much for the update. I am glad to hear that you and Glenda are in touch with each other. I just want to let you know that we are also here to help you if you have any questions or if you need advise on puppy care. We would love to hear more about your new baby and we would love to see pictures. Best of luck with your new yorkie baby.

If the thread had been deleted prior to the OP coming back & posting, it would be very sad for YT forum. I'm very glad she came back with her story. She explained and we welcome her @YT! We can't wait to hear stories and pics of her new baby after being settled in!!:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

She could have come back with a new thread.

Again, she's new to the forum. Let's move on. She's talked, explained, and apologized with Glenda, the breeder. If only we "all" could do things with insight to the future, but we're all Human.

Agreed, but if the moderator removes this thread, it will not appear in future internet searches where the searcher may only see the complaint, unless they go through many replies. Yorkie Baby should ask the moderator to remove the thread to make things right.

i agree. even closing the thread will help, so that it won't resurface, would be fair. I don't know the OP or the breeder, but the point is not to perpetuate false statements on a reputable site here. i endorsed deletion or closing the thread NOT to punish or chastise to OP or anyone. new or not, we all make mistakes. it's just unfortunte that searches for the breeder will bring up the original post, but people won't necesarily read the whole thread for the full story.
