| Beware of yorkiecuties.com! At the same time Babydollyorkies.com site came down another site (Yorkiecuties.com) went right up! For those of you who don't know about Babydollyorkies, it was a site where a puppy broker sold puppies claiming to be a breeder! Both site are VERY similar in terms of pictures, prices, Vocabulary & even the over sized bows on the puppies heads! Yorkiecuties.com is also in the Sacramento area, same as babydollyorkies!! WOW! So either this is just a BIG Coincidence or Theresa (Thahn) (teresa) Voqui is at it again! Regardless, if you are planning on buying a puppy from this site I would HIGHLY suggest thinking twice and doing all your homework!! If this is not the same person, my apologies. But I don't think I'm wrong! |

| I found out Theresa Voqui was a broker because she wasn't the breeder. She was selling some other persons litter from Parks, Ak. She claimed she was the actually breeder but later the truth unfolded! As for the puppies, I don't think she has a problem selling them! That's why she continues wheeling & dealing the puppies like old car parts! She sells a litter and has one shipped in days later! She always has 'NEW PUPPIES'! She buys the puppies from breeders in the midwest for cheap ($300) and then sells the Yorkies for $2,000+. It's horrible! |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Please never buy your dog from a website, a good breeder would never sell this way. Many good breeders have web sites, but don't sell their dogs through them. Buying through the web is worse than buying at a pet store. Always meet with your breeder in person. If people would stop buying through websites and puppy stores, we could close the puppy mills down without even making new laws.

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | A breeder will welcome you to their home where it won't smell and you can see mom and the sire. A breeder will give you references of their vet and former customers. A breeder has answers for your questions--like who the parents are, where the siblings are, etc. There are many red flags when you go to a puppymill. |
