i think you are such a wounderful person alot of ppl here wouldnt take him but you would and that says alot about you maybe you can get him and then try to place him in another home he really needs to get away from that lady that is selling him he deserves better than that i really want to get him but i have absolutly no money at all i just got a job but i havent started yet so right now there is no way just seeing this baby breaks my heart but i just dont know how people can look at him and tell you to run and not get him yes he might have health problem but im sure all the gurls on here could help with his care and send some gifts fo vet bills and so forth i cant see how ppl can see a animal needing help and turn there head we need more ppl like you in the world and god will bless you very much for opening your home and heart for this little guy may god bless you and your family

would you like me to post pictures of all the other animals on puppyfind and petfinder in similar or worse situations that need homes as well? and what about all the children in the world that need homes? people cannot live above their means. i would like nothing more then to have the funds to help this dog and many other animals that are in need but i just can't do it. my heart is big enough, my wallet isn't. that's the way the world works. someone can take this dog home and offer him all the love in the morning, but if he's suffering from a medical problem, he's still going to be suffering from that medical problem no matter where he is. the breeder obviously isn't going to pay to help him out which is why she's selling him, but you cannot tell someone else they should get him and then assume others will help her pay his medical expenses. its just not logical. the people of YT have great hearts, i do not deny it, but many have been taken advantage of. there's only so much one can do. Dena is a wonderful person with a huge heart, but i can honestly say she should NOT purchase this puppy. She was on here not too long ago saying she didn't have enough money to pay for Natalie's medical problems, why should she get another dog with obvious medical problems?

I agree with you and you are definitely the voice of reason. I am sure you see dogs everyday that need to be adopted and it breaks your heart. Thank you for doing what you do

thank you chachi. I'm sure there are people here who think i'm mean and cruel and wonder why i have a yorkie.... but i like to tell people i'm a realist. i see so many things and its heartbreaking not to be able to help them all. i do what i can (some may remember the Chi i fostered and there are many many others i helped thru the shelter i worked for) with what i can and do not live outside my means. if i can help i do, and i think that is what everyone should do. if you do more then you can, in the end you are going to not only hurt the animal you are trying to help, but everyone else you help provide for.

im a strong belever of no one gets left behind all my life i have been like that and when i had no money at all and my familly was going thru rough times i would still take in animals i found on the street dying animals that were abused i did what i needed to do to find help ask and call various vets to see if they would do some free work and if one door closed another one would open if he was in cali i would take him in a heart beat im sure some ppl in my city would donate money to me getting him even if that ment i would have to stand on the corner and ask for donations thats how i am i really wish i had money for him now so i could have him shiped my way but the truth is by the time a fundraise the money he will be gone to someone out there looking for a cheap yorkie who doesnt know much about the breed thats why i wish that some one on here could take him

and that is all i am saying on the matter i really dont want to go back and forth with this i just gave my honest opinion

A big NO! Just a few weeks ago you were posting about rehoming your babies. The strain of Natalie's illness was taking it's toll on you. Please do NOT get another pet. Plus you were complaining about the financial burden of her problems, you can not afford another one, especially if it might end up with skin problems.

Werent you just having problems financially with Natalie and couldnt afford her medical problems?? How is it now, 1 month later, that you want to take on another problem Yorkie that might have expensive medical problems as well. Lets not keep funding these irresponsilbe puppy mill breeders by buying all of their mistakes and problems.

I know you want to help this little guy now by taking him in, but you have to ask yourself if you could help him later should medical issues arise. I may be wrong but according to your past post, the answer is no. Therefore I do not think you should buy another yorkie, whether it be him or any other puppy because with the love we give them comes the cost of the unexpected vet visit, and meds if they need them. I know your heart is in the right place but you have to look at the bigger picture. Ofcourse the choice is yours.

Blunt and very well put. :) :thumbup:

ETA: Personally, I also think it would be a big slap in the face to those who purchased things from you when you were trying to make some money for your dog's medical expenses.

:thumbup: :yeahthat:

i agree with kalina82 and yorkiekist

He looks so sad:(

Have you made your decission?

Poor little guy. I wonder if she's (the seller) even taken him to the vet? I doubt it. Good luck to you - and Happy Holidays to you and your family!!!

I know :( I thought so too! Or worse - sick :(

Yes he looks very sick. :( If i could afford him and more i would but i def. can\'t, he looks like he will have tons of medical bills.
