I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | What the heck is the purpose of this!?!?! Makes me angry! I was just browsing around online at Yorkie pictures and came across this Yorkie puppy (which is for sale). This little one is very cute, but that is a ZIP TIE around it's neck!!! WHY would anyone ever put a zip tie on a little babies neck like that! This is so upsetting! Makes me so angry.

| Is it a rescue? The pup is cute, but I too can't fathom why ANYONE would put something like that around a pups neck...

YT 1000 Club Member | That's not very smart anyway. Why would ayone put something like that around it's neck. It could get caught on something or the zip could get pulled and strangle the poor thing. Can you contact this person and give say something?

| I'm sure it is a way of Identifying the pup.. But Oh so wrong! I don't even like the yarn or ribbon I see on necks! I wonder if they've heard of microchips? |

| It makes no sense at all, and is very maddening. Some people shouldn't be allowed to own pets imo

I have yarn around mine. I change it every few days so that it never gets too tight or too loose. I had a soft velcro in different colors that I was going to use, but I didn't have 5 colors so I used the yarn this time. I would like a better method than the yarn. But why is it so bad? I am feeling like I shouldn't even be admitting to the yarn. But seriously, I would never do anything to hurt these precious little ones! I would never use zip ties though -- they would not give at all if they got caught on something and just the hard plastic seems like it would be terribly uncomfortable and might rub them raw.

| the most dangerous part of using a zip tie is that if it gets pulled just right it will tighten on the neck and possibly chock the dog if it gets tight enough Very sad that a breeder is doing this, you would thing a breeder would know better but i guess not in this case |
