My furkids Donating Member | Jeff Dane Grrrrrrrr! OK....I was just browsing yorkie sites and came across Jeff Dane! O MY GOD!!! I can't believe what he is selling his puppies for...I sent him an e-mail...not a very nice one either...maybe I shouldn't have?? O well,,,,,it's gone now. here it is... Your kidding me right!? $7500.00 for a yorkie!! I know yorkies are not a cheap breed but,,,,,are you serious??!! First of all there is NO SUCH THING as a "teacup"....the breed standard tells you that! And...if you are intentionally breeding for a really small dog....THAT IS JUST WRONG!! I think 5-7 lbs is small already..All you are doing is breeding for money selling these poor little dogs for outrageous $$$! How can you consciously do this knowing that these poor babies probably will not be healthy...or be susceptible to sicknesses and breaking bones....I feel sorry for you!

| $7,500 When I was searching for a puppy, I came across so many sites where Jeff Dane was mentioned ... and not in a good way at all. He's all about money. |

My furkids Donating Member | pheeeew! I didn't know what kind of a response I was going to get...I think I might have gotten a little out of control with my e-mail...but, it really irritates me to see people doing this! These poor little animals don't ask to be born and they end up paying the ultimate price. You can (most of the time) tell a good breeder that breeds for healthy pups. I know it is difficult to tell a good breeder over the internet...But when you read things like this you KNOW they don't care about the animal...it is the almighty $$$ at the animals expense. I wish there were something that could be done about people like this, unfortunately there are sooo many bogus inhumane people out there that I feel this will go on forever..I just feel bad for the animals.. Thanks guys for your support!

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Hey Brenda - he's been known to respond to people's emails. You may hear from him - he and his 'people' used to browse forums when people talked about him and they would actually post and get REALLY nasty. He's a greedy greedy broker/breeder - I really don't know what to call him. He's had yorkies for 10 grand on his site...this isn't the first. There is a member here that did get a yorkie from him who is fine and she's posted her experience - which for her, was a good one.. but too many other people weren't as lucky as she was ...which is where his bad reputation comes from. People are just getting RIPPED OFF By him and his prices. I hate to say this... but most of his yorkies don't even look healthy - they look sad and scared and they aren't the best representation of the breed by far. How he can get away with what he charges is nuts. |

I feel really bad for those furbabies. You would hope ppl out there would to there research b4 laying down that kind of cash and see him for the horrible person that he is

| I just posted a huge thing about a puppy that I bought from his brother Steve Dane. I just spent over 1000 to keep that pup alive and it ended up having blood in his lungs and dying. I am trying to get my money back, but we will see how that goes. :-( |
