| Please help me flag this!!!!! I always browse the classifieds and today I came accross this ad and I just about threw up!! They say the expecting parents are 2 1/2 pd's and 2 3/4 pd's they are going to breed a 2 3/4 pd female and they say the only reason she is that big is because she is pregnant http://www.hoobly.com/0/0/618132.html

| Yes but pictures can make the dog look bigger, and even if they are bigger. They are false advertising and those poor dogs are NOT of good breed quality. IMO

| i think they look bigger than 2 lbs. There is a guy holding up one of them and the dog looks bigger than 2lbs. I have a true 3lb dog and she is smaller than the dog being held up. They probably lied on the weight to make a sale. Lets hope anyway because that is incredibly way to small to breed..... |

I know. I couldn't help myself I wrote a very long e-mail and told them they didn't care about their dogs and gave them a list of problems that can arise for small female giving birth, the AKC breed standard for a yorkies ect... I hope they reconsider!!!!

| I have to agree that these dogs are bigger than 2 1/2lbs. My little Jazzi weighs 3lbs 2 ozs and they are bigger than her.
