| Tell me..What happens to YOU?? This happens to me..' Its funny how people call you if you have a ad out for your puppies.. They want to TRADE for "BIGGER DOGs" This little girl just called me and said My mom wants to know IF you would TRADE a yorkie for a Pit Bull: (excuse me) EMMM Hell NOOO. I had a lady call my years ago asking me did I want to TRADE for a Diamond ring...EMMMM NOOO. I just dont get it..lol Why on EARTH do you think I want to TRADE? See this is WHY you DONT place ads. I had a guy try was dying in the next month and he wanted to get her a puppy, BUT do to all her medical bills he couldn't not afford to spend anymore than $50.. I told him it cost me way MORE for the up keep of my yorkies and he was like but my girlfriend is dying and this is her wish.. Well Being the cold heart person that I am ( I thought something but didnt say it and said ) and said IF you really love her you will take your $50 and go to the pound and get a baby that need a caring home and he says....lol So you can not help me out. I said IF she REALLY LOVES YOU, she will be HAPPY with whatever you get her and HUNG UP! So I cant understand these people.....LOL

| That is the down side of breeding. My hubby recently told me I ought to get out of it if it bothers me so much. people can really jerk you around. I use our online paper and puppyfind at times. Almost invariably people will call wanting a free yorkie or to trade something or a really cheap dog. I always tell them sorry, I don't have anything like that, I don't do trades and i don't do cheap but the paper is full of 'cheap' if that is what they are looking for. Mine ain't. Then i say thanks for calling and hang up. i have an ongoing stud ad for my little Ceeby that everyone on here is wild about. His stud fee is 400. I have had all kinds of people trying to buy him. WTH, can't they read. I even had a college prof. the other email me and say I think 400 is too high for a two year old male and if we can negioate, I will come get him today. Again, WTH is wrong with people. Ceeby will never be for sale and if he ever is, it probably would be a million dollars |

Hhhmmm, good to know for the future I can't imagine people trying to make trades for a dog, I have never heard of that. Also, if you can only afford $50 for a dog, then you definately can't afford the vet bills...move on.

So I don't let anyone hold my puppy anymore, I nearly had a heartattack!, I literally sat there crying while he bounced around chasing his mini tennis ball. thank god he's ok!. and yea, that's pretty weird, trading diamond rings for puppys? o.o why doesn't she just pawn the ring THEN use the money....

| LOL stupid people think a stud dog is for sale? It would be nice if they actually READ the advertisements. |

| We recently had an offer of trade for a miniature paint pony! I guess if it is a sincere offer I shouldn't laugh, as I'm sure the pony has value. But what in the world would I do with it???? lol |
