| Excellent Breeder in Stroud Oklahoma~Leslee Mitchell!!! I want to voice my opinion about a breeder I have found in Stroud, OK. Her name is Leslee Mitchell. I saw a bad report on your site and I absolutely don't understand it. I bought what turned out to be the sister Yorkie to the puppy this lady purchased. My puppy is happy, healthy, and has terrific knees.... the very thing this crazy woman said was wrong with her puppy! I took my puppy in for a vet checkup and he said it was one of the nicest Yorkies he had seen in years. The vet said this was obviously a family raised puppy because all she wanted to do was give him kisses the whole time he did the exam. This woman has said some cruel untrue things about Leslee and I wanted to voice my opinion. I picked up my puppy at Leslee's home and watched the puppy play with Leslee's children and was also able to meet and spend time with my puppy's parents. Both of them were contented and very typey for the Yorkie breed. I have owned 6 Yorkies in my lifetime and am very familiar with what quality and breed standard should be. This complaint from the other buyer from Yukon OK is way out of line. I am very surprised to hear that this would even be posted since it is unsubstantiated accusations. I plan to attend the court proceedings when Leslee begins the suit against her for personal liable and slander. I want to share my story and document to the court what a wonderful puppy I have from this exceptional breeder! Tyler |

| Well....once I found out how upset Leslee was after reading this trash, I wanted to see for myself what all she said. I read the vet report and saw that it was not all she cracked it up to be. Personally, I think she just wanted to scam Leslee out of a puppy. She cancelled her check to Leslee and would not accept an exchange of her puppy (per the health contract). She then proceeded to post Leslee's name on all the websites where Leslee advertises. She also posted this false line on several other websites. Leslee has an immaculate estate in Stroud, raises a world class vineyard with award winning wines, and has established an excellent reputation with her Yorkshire Terriers. You don't think this kind of person would want to preserve a personna she has built up for years by one foolish doctor's wife in Yukon OK? Leslee has the wherewithal and the fortitude to defend herself no matter what the cost. It is the principle, not the money at all. |

| I just feel so for Leslee after seeing what this unreasonable, unhuman lady has put her through. She does not deserve this. I just wanted to help in one small way. I told Leslee that this lady may have wanted this Yorkie for breeding herself.... and that is very scarry! If she would treat a human being like this...how would she treat her precious Yorkie. Anyway, thanks for commenting... Enjoy your sweet little Yorkie...I am!!! |

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | Funny but reading the original post there are to different people with two different complaints about this breeder. I say you were lucky but I would not buy from her.

| No, there is only the one lady posting as many times as she pleases all over any website she can get away with it on. there were stringent federal laws passed this last year that allows for legal pursuit of someone who falsely tears someone's reputation or someone's business apart on the internet. this mean spirited lady has no idea what kind of Yorkshire Terrier breeder Leslee Mitchell is....all this lady wanted was a puppy for free. She tried canceling Leslee's check and Leslee took her to court for it. The lady's attorney knew she would lose and made her pay Leslee, not only the check amount but all court costs as well. THEN all this posting on the internet took place! When the lady could not get a free puppy, she was intensely cruel to this wonderful breeder. Now she will see what a person of determination and integrity are all about. If one does not have their reputation, one does not have anything. |

| There is a small difference! I am not trying to tear down this woman's reputation nor her business... I am merely defending Leslee Mitchell as my dog's breeder, whom I have come to know and trust. You can check it out...Leslee in 7 yrs of raising Yorkies has had 0 complaints anywhere you look...BBB, Dept of AG for OK, USDA, internet sites, puppy sites, etc...NONE. This woman thought she could get something for nothing. The internet highway can let you find for yourself what is out there about anyone. That is why I researched Leslee for a month before I bought my little girl. Leslee even gave me the #s to the 2 vets she uses, and I called them to see what their opinion was of her program. Nothing buy glowing reports. |

| This thread is starting to sound like a paid advertisement. We've seen this before. Someone complains about a breeder and.....lo and behold... someone conveniently comes on shortly after to sing the praises of said breeder. I'm sure if this breeder has such a sterling reputation, she doesn't need a cheerleader. I read the thread with the complaint and, frankly, the lady doesn't come off as 'inhuman' or an 'idiot' (wasn't that the words you used?). To quote an old saying, "Methinks you doth protest too much ". It will be interesting to see how this 'case' gets resolved. |

| With all due respect, I just read the other thread and I feel the lady was in her right to be upset if she received a sick puppy from this breeder. The vet himself told her the puppy had coccidia and luxating patella. Besides, the lady states she gave the breeder $600 cash and a $200 check as a deposit and the $200 check was what she canceled. How is this trying to get something for nothing? She's still out $600! I think the poster above is correct, this is starting to sound like a paid advertisement.
