Hun dont beat your self up about, some of us know what you were saying and venting about. They to have made mistakes, but they wont admit to it, everyone learns from their mistakes. Its better to keep these little ones longer and I can see your concern about it. even though i have bought pups at 6-8 weeks of age that has done wonderful, I wouldnt let my pups go that soon. This thread wasnt about you having the male fix but about the pups leaving so soon. | |

You'll probably get more answers in regards to training and aggression issues if you start another thread.

http://www.prisonersofgreed.org/ListA2006.pdf The USDA requires breeders not to sell puppies before eight weeks of age. The moment they turn eight weeks, they are loaded up and sold. Puppies taken from their mom and littermates miss important lessons in socialization including bite inhibition. Puppymill puppies have very little human contact so socialization is even more difficult. You will have to teach her those lessons yourself. Here's a good article on bite inhibition. Dog Owner's Guide: "No bite!" | |

| OK OK it's my fault she has the pups and it's my fault if they go at six weeks. I guess I should have just let him stay in the crappy environment he was in and possibly would have died in instead of taking him and not getting him fixed.. I guess his life wasn't as important as his balls.. Thanks for everyones input.. Have a nice day!!!! |

| I wasn't accusing you of lying; I just couldn't find it and was wondering where it was.

If you didn't care that he may be used for breeding well then you can't then be surprised that a lady that doesn't know anything about breeding has pups and is selling them way to early to make a fast buck. You said if he had been yours as a pup he wouldn't have left unaltered. Well , he WAS your pup. You rescued him with intentions of keeping him , so you should have made sure he was fixed before he left like you would a pup "born" to you. There is no difference.

| Ok I am sure I am gonna get a good brow beating for this but before you do please just hear me out. I understand that alot of people are irresponsible breeders and toy breeds need more attention when breed and alot of people are equipt to handle it. However, I think that a breeder getting extra money off breeding rights or even having such control over what "Bob" does with his dog it not correct. It is "his" dog, and I think the responsiblity of breeding it or not should be left in the hands of the person who owns the animal. I do agree however that most dogs should be pet only and so on, but it is not you the breeders right to decide who can do what with their dog, more-so when you charge the price of a used car for the dog!! Yorkies very expensive dogs, and the prices that breeders charge for them is part of what fuels people to breed their dogs " to get their money back" or whatever else. I understand both sides but I think breeders should not have the right to control who breeds and who doesn't and why do they need to charge an extra fee for breeding?

I'm not a breeder and I know nothing about it really ...but I think ( JMO)they charge extra so people like me won't try to breed dogs . Since I clearly know nothing about breeding , I would inevitably hurt the line. So I think they charge more to discourage people from doing that.

| Where did you see this? I have never heard of such a requirement with AKC. It might be a suggestion to breeders, but its not a requirement. I got my first Yorkie at 5 weeks old.(didnt know any better) got AkC papers with no problem. I see the paper is full of AKC dog litters for sale that are under 8 weeks of age.

| Just spoken to someone within the Yorkshire terrier club UK and she says that the right time is between 8-10 weeks old depending on the size/weight of the puppy and if they have had there first jabs. Seems alot of inconsistancy here.
