| It is just that there are SO many scammers and creeps out on the internet. They post pups on internet classifieds all of the time..many calling themselves rescuers when in fact they are just making money off of the backs of pups. Just totally disgusting. Sure, you do get a naive person and it is always good to help them; but I largely avoid these ads because the vast majority are not there for the welfare of the pups they are advertising.

| We do have one person interested and I am wiling to make the trip, but I can not be any clearer. THIS SMELLS LIKE SCAM. Especially now that she has TWO! And of course, because she calls them Teacup. I would urge the people near here or in the same state to contact Animal Control, Humane Society and her vet. Does anyone have the name of the vet yet? I would much rather go pick up the dog from the pound and bring it to someone who can then use the $1200 saved to pay for all of this dogs vet bills that are sure to follow. I would be willing to take both little girls back with me. Has anyone really seen two Yorkies fight and when they are pregnant on top of that??? Someone rescuing an animal does not charge for it. She was given both of these Yorkies? We all know there has been a rash of little dogs getting stolen? Please, someone in this state needs to confirm this is legit and its not a stolen dog, puppy mill or money hungry grub. |

| The reason she is trying to sell the dogs is because she is in a bad relationship and her Mother bought her a house for her and her dogs and 4 children!!!! She can't move with all of that plus baby pups! O.k.... I hope you are sitting down.....She is selling the dogs becasue she needs the $$$ to MOVE and she can't take that many dogs with her!!!!! If her mother BOUGHT her a house for her and her dogs and 4 children why cant she take the mommas with her? You would think she would get more than 1200 if she sold all the pups....sounds really really fishy to me. If anyone truly does go out after the mommas I am willing to help out with a small donation ($50). I would love to take the mommas but I am in California and have my own pregnant momma. |

| I would not pay her $1,200 for that female even if she was fixed and not pregnant. The dog is not registered. It's all just so crazy. Now if she wanted to turn her over to me for free---- I would gladly take on the vet bills and find the pups homes. It just seems all so wrong. OT: Hey Larry--- I'm over in Pine Bush! |

| I have a question: Why does everyone believe everything they read? I guess it is kind of like the Jim Jones purple koolaid incident. People just want to believe... I personally don't like purple koolaid.

| I have no idea if it is a scam or not, so of course if someone decides to take her, the money should be dropped off after you see the dog, etc. I do agree that it could be a planned thing and it's not right to support it but at the same time if the dog is rescued soon enough, a vet may be able to spay her and terminate the pregnancy to save the mom. I know everyone seems to want to report this and they want the dog to go to the humane society or whatever. Welllll, you do NOT want her to go to the Macomb County Humane Society and that is where Warren is located. Please see Insider Pages for some reviews on the place. She would likely be euthanized very quickly...

I merely posted the obvious. I can almost guarantee you that this person is more than likely lying about something. I have been around long enough to know what happens..and I know the odds. Had nothing to do with you or anyone else. Just because someone says something and sounds convincing, does not make it so. And...just so you know.....millers do this...they are heartless and they let you know that so that you will come give them money! I have no idea who she is or even if she has two pregnant yorkies...just stating how I read this. Just an FYI so that people can think before they jump into something that may end up a total cluster. As someone else said....it smells.

| Hmmmm.... I emailed her as well. I just have too many questions. She is an adorable little girl. It does seem that she is contradicting herself with what she has on her ad versus what she is telling people over the phone..

| Sad thing is, even if someone were to buy her there truly is no guarantee that she is pregnant nor if she is pregnant by another yorkie. She is adorable! I don't know.... sad.

The really sad thing is that if there is a pregnant female and someone buys her, this woman will probably have another to sell. Easy money.

| YT 1000 Club Member | If I read the ad right she took pics of them breeding which means she didn't do anything to even stop it (or did I read that wrong?). She sounds like a lunatic. Maybe she's not but from what I've read so far, nothing adds up!!

![]() I would like to add that she also has an ad under the same phone number that she is breeding and selling another puppy. Coton De Tulear puppies for sale and adoption in the USA/Canada Unfortunately, this is NOT illegal and goes on all the time. There are pregnant females in dog auctions all over the country being sold. No, it is not good for the mother but these people just do not care. If you gather up the money to purchase this little girl all you are doing is making another spot for her to add a new female to breed to her "great stud"! Gathering the money to go and purchase her is no better than gathering money to go to an auction or mill and pay the millers. It just is not right and really does no good. I will guarantee you that this entire story with this woman is a total lie just looking for people like us that will dish out $1200 to her. It makes me sick that I have to breath the same air as people like her but really there is no good solution to the problem. I didn't even dig around that much and already I have found a huge hole in her story! There is no way that she took this little girl to a reputable vet and not only did he say that is was fine that she is going to have a litter of puppies but it is alright to sell her! Just the other day I did an entire thread in the rescue forum about posting Kijii ads. There are no reputable people that are selling dogs on that website. I would say that it is just as bad as Hobbly.com! I can also add that not that long ago I saw a post on Craigslist telling everyone to post their dogs on Kijii because they have NO RULES!~ Now if she would be willing to give this dog to a rescue I would get into my car tomorrow for her. Everyone could then make donations to a REPUTABLE RESCUE to save her. By paying this PoS a dime all that you are doing is adding to the perpetual abuse that is going on.
