Horrible Breeder

Maxi, I am sorry you are going thru this and so sorry to hear of your DIL passing. I commend you for what you are doing for this puppy and for all puppies.

As a parent, you want to protect your children from some of the realities of life, and a sick dog that has no chance for a decent life isn't one of the things that I wanted them to learn about so young. I hope you don't feel alone anymore.

Maxi85, I am sorry you had to learn this way.. I have been there and it is not nice.. but I have had this problem with a good show breeder in Canada.. and when I sent her an email.. she called me an idiot.. so just because people show does not give them a good name or rep.. with this breeder most do not say anything for she is extremely intimidating...

Nancy great great post..and this is why I do not sell the few puppies I have over the internet.. I want to know who is having one of my babies.. I keep in touch with them all.. like to hear once in awhile that all is ok.. and nothing nothing then to hear something like.. "I got my baby for a birthday/anniversary gift from my hubby and it is the gift that keeps on giving.." Screening people is not easy unless you meet them face to face..and I am still in the hole.. and people say why do you do it then.. because I was taken so much over a 20 year period and have heard so many stories.. I want to be able to have some one who can get a yorkie and be able to call me.. and then I can help if needed.. am always there..as much as I can be.. anne

I know things will turn out for you, because you are a warm caring woman.

If I'm reading correctly the breeder is one that has been posted about before! It's the lovely Starmye Halpain - again!

Maxi85, I'm terribly sorry you're faced with the difficult times you are right now. My heart goes out to you for the loss of your daughter in law.

You shouldn't have to be dealing with a newly purchased sick puppy, ever - but it's especially tough with what has happened to your family.....again, I'm so sorry.

[spr377]

So sorry for the loss that your family is going through. It's a disgrace that your family's grief has to be compounded by the troubles that this bad breeder has caused you!! Welcome to YT, I hope you find some comfort with the nice people you will meet here.

[Mom to Hot Rod]

So very sorry for you loss. I hope that everything will work out for you and your puppy and family. It is a shame that some people do not have any compassion.

[mscat]

You have been through your share of loss and disappointment I am very sorry.
It is a shame what has happened, and I know your doing what is right for the sick puppy. It angers me that they gave you the wrong puppy, and a sick one too People are heartless

Hi,
It was Ultimate Puppies in OK. Ultimate Pets
Not only did she sell me a sick Puppy, she sent me the wrong Puppy.
The Puppy I picked up at the Airport was 11 weeks old. The Puppy I purchased was 14 weeks old. The Puppy looked nothing like the one I ordered. I brought the Puppy to the Vet. He confirmed that is was not the same Pup, and he also confirmed it was a Puppy Mill Dog. Hope this helps other people from making the same mistake I did.

Maxi I like the others here am so sorry to hear all that you have had to endure. The fact that you have endured and continue to go on shows just what a strong and caring person you must be. I have been in your shoes as far and the puppy goes, buying from what I thought was a good breeder only to be let down. My gang and I raise our paws to you for all that you are doing for your little furbaby and pray that all works out well for you.
And to your darling Grandchildren, our prayers that life will take a turn to a beautifully colored rainbow so that they can laugh and smile again soon.
God bless you for being the soul that you are being an angel to both your grandchildren and your furbaby. Terri and the Gang

Terri,
I checked out your Website. Your Puppie's are Beautiful. Thanks so much for your kind word's. I am so glad I found this site. I have received a lot of support here from Great People like yourself. Hoping to post my Puppie's Picture soon. I am trying to fatten her up first. She is 5 1/2 month's now and only weighs two pounds. She eats constantly but is slow gaining weight.
Thanks again..Maxi85

Welcome to YT I'm so sorry for all you've been through. I hope your puppy will come through this and be the perfect little girl your family deserves. She's a lucky little girl to have gotten you as her Yorkie Mom.

I just had a look at the site your puppy came from. UGH. They make me sick. I've read bad things about them before. I don't know how they sleep at night.

Many Blessings to you and your family.

Tammy, Abby & Daisy

I'm sorry that this has happen to you and your family. And I understand why you bought one off of the internet from her. Her puppy pictures are BEAUTIFUL. My gosh I would buy one in a heart beat if I didn't know what happened. Did your puppy arrive beautiful? This makes me wonder if not, then her pictures are fake?

My husband bought a schnauzer once when she was 2 weeks old, she changed everytime the breeder sent us pictures, and let me tell you she was not the same dog when we picked her up. We bought one dog, but I am sure we saw 6 of them and still ended up with the a different puppy. My husband was happy with her, and I was mad. I'm sure what happened was she had too many of them and got confused with who was who, you know. It does seem like this breeder you had probably did the same thing, she does have many puppies going on at the same time.

Good luck on your baby, and I would love to see a picture to compare with what she has now on her site.

Hi,
She was not Beautiful when I picked her up. She was all wet from her water spilling all over her. I took her home and gave her a Bath. My Daughter said"Mom this Puppy doesn't look like the one in the picture" I didn't think so either. But I thought the long flight, being wet, and the Bath made her look different. I picked her up on Friday. All weekend long I kept looking at her and the picture the Breeder gave me. I just couldn't, and didn't want to believe it. My Husband kept asking "are you sure this is the right Dog"
I went to the Vet on Monday with the picture and the Puppy. The Vet tossed the picture on the table and said" this is not the same Dog, and it is from a Puppy Mill" It was all down hill after that. Then all the Medical Issues came up. I was at the Vet once at least once a week after that. My Puppy has been on so much medicine. For two weeks, she was taking four different prescriptions. I love her very much, but she is not the Beautiful Dog I purchased. I have wanted a Yorkie for so long. I searched everywhere for well over a year before I found the Breeder's site. I fell in love with that Puppy in the Picture. I even bought little Birth Announcements with her Picture on them and sent them out the Day before I picked her up at the Airport. When I told the Breeder it was not the Dog I ordered she said' maybe they switched Dogs at the Airport. The entire ordeal has been a Nightmare.
I would like to post both Pictures but I don't know how to do it. Another thing that happened is, I sent the Breeder things I found on the Internet about her, now the Husband tells me he is taking me to Fereral Court because what I did is a Crime. I have an Appt. with an Lawyer next week which is going to cost even more money. By the time this is over I will be into it for a lot more than the $1750.00 Puppy.. Not only the Puppies at the Mill are treated badly, so are the People that buy them maxi85

i looked at the website.. and it totally looks above board...it certainly does not look like a puppy mill.. she also has recent testimonials..
i would totally consider buying from this breeder
but your vet said it was a puppy mill dog..
how can that be?
what was wrong with your puppy?
was it sick?
sorry for your trouble, but ultimate pets has a very convincing website, withthe cute family and all.. is this a fake photo and a fake story? i guess it could be if she ships all her puppies

[yoyo27]

You have had so much given to you at one time. Its hard to know what to do. Hopefully the puppy and the grandkids can work togeather and maybe that will help. Its a load for you to take on and then have the sick puppy on top of things. I hope that this behavior class will help out. Its hard to tell what that puppy went through.
