:( He is not very well housetrained and needs a belly band while inside. He likes to mark. He also doesn't have much for obedience training. I don't know if I can deal with that much training, especially for a dog who has not been house trained for 2.5 years already. If he marks, it will just encourage Layla to pee anywhere too. Does anyone else want him?? :( |

I just emailed her to let her know she was getting talked about. If some one don't have money to pay for a yorkie, they may not need one. You have to have money to have pets, you have to take them to the vets, food , & ect. Their needs cost money!! Love only goes so far. Everyone wants something for free, and when it get sick do you think the vet is going to be free!!! No I hope this dog fines a great home with someone that can love him and take care of any of his needs. |

I do not think dog ownership should just be for the rich. I think every child should have a dog growing up but their parents should be willing to give up lots in order to do that if need be. We had some hard times in the past and I cut way back on my grocery bills so she could have the best. It is possible. |

You know what? I am offended that you are doing this and keep emailing the breeder asking her to lower her price and adding your little haha's. I am not very nice when people call me about my puppies and pull this on me. If this breeder is like me, she knows what she wants for the dog. I set my price and people can take it or leave it. I usually get off the phone real fast after I tell people that if they are looking for a free puppy or a two or three hundred dollar one, that they need to keep right on looking. When I buy things, I pay what the asking price is. |

:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: Thank you, that is what I am talking about, why do people think breeders should almost give yorkies away. The breeders like unless do not buy cheap Yorkies to be in a breeding line, we have very nice bloodlines and pay $$$$$ for them, they we do all the test on them, vet vists, best food , houseing, cleaning up after them, sleepless nights with puppies, and people think they should sell for a free or 200. Please, No!!! It cost money to breed, we have to sell the puppies for a price to pay ourself back for all that we have put out. And no I did not call you poor, but you have to think when you get a puppy or dog "what if" I bought a Maltese male about a year ago, after about 8 weeks he got very sick, I spend $900 in vet bills and still lost him. It is something that could happen to anyone and the vets never found what was wrong. And he was bought from a very good breeder and she give me another puppy without me asking, but I was still out the $900. |
Well this thread has been ruined. :rolleyes: |

I think the difference between the two situations is that you are a reputable breeder, who takes care of her dogs. This lady is a backyard breeder that has been breeding an unregistered dog, who isn't house trained, or trained at all from what PP have written. How many rescue dogs would have a home if the rescue organization/pound charged 700+ to help out a dog. They aren't asking for a free puppy, they are just wanting to help find an older dog with issues a nice, loving home. Just because someone doesn't want to pay close to a grand for an unregistered dog with issues, doesn't mean they can't afford to take care of it once it gets to them. My little guy is a rescue, and I gave a rehoming fee of less than 200, but he has never/and will never want for proper care and treatment. It is okay if you choose not to haggle with potential customers, I can understand that, but the lady with this ad obviously doesn't care to talk about price, so why should it bother you? |
Childish! I think some of the people in this thread are acting extremely childish. Who cares if the price is being haggled? Its a 2.5 year old dog who is basically being dumped off because its basically to the current owner "used goods". I personally applaud everyone in this thread for trying to save a defenseless dogs life and give it a better one with them and their family. Who cares about haggling, your saving a dog from being dumped off god knows where by someone who no longer wants it. There should be more people who try to help animals like this in the world. :bravo: |
Poor guy, I wouldn't mind taking him for 200$ but I am in Ontario and she doesn't want to ship. If someone says OBO it means The asking price OR best offer. I think with these types of situations people say the most they would LOVE to receive and then they are open to the highest offer that is closest to their asking price. I mean I sell things around my city sometimes and I will put firm and people will ask. Sometimes you need to bargain. I have seen things that are priced WAY TO MUCH and I WILL offer less, who knows what someone will say. I don't think theres anything wrong with makng offers. But I do understand a bit what the other ladies were talking about. You ladies I am sure breed your dogs properly and follow the ethical rules, this lady seems to just be doing it for the $$ and she probably doesn't really care where he goes . Why let those kind of people win? |
I hope this little guy gets what he needs , no matter what the price. The chances are it will be a good home if its a member of YT. |
To me, this dog seems more like a rescue. That's alot different than buying a pet. He has had no training whatsoever, which tells me that he's probably been living in a cage and/or isn't socialized very well. The dog is 2.5 yrs old and he's not even house trained at all! The seller has dropped the price from 700-200 dollars. I think what's more important than money is that this dog finds a nice, loving home. I hope that a YT'er helps out :thumbup: |

That is the problem with the written word ~ it is open to INTERPRETATION as to the "tone" the word was said in - in the authors head! ;) |
I clicked on the link and didn't see a yorkie anyplace on the page. Lots of other pups though. |
I don't think I have been childish, if you email a breeder to see if she will take 200-300 for the dog and she says yes but then you say you don't have the money!!! Why email the lady if you don't have the money to get the dog!! That is what makes me mad. And then everyone is judging her with out knowing her. And no I don't know her, she could be a good breeder or bad. She could have bought this male and it not be up to standarded for breeding. You should not just breed any two dogs. He is a very cute dog, but I would not want him in my breeding line. You don't know how the dog has been raised until you go to her house and see with your own eyes. Sorry but I do not like people that talks about people behind their backs. Before you talk please have the facts(meaning seen it with your eyes). I could care less if you try to offer a breeder less money, just have the money you are offering or don't call/email. It is up to the breeder to take the offer or not, but don't waste her time. OH and if she goes from asking $700 to $200 I don't think she is in it for the money, but just finding a good home!! |

I totally agree with this. Even if someone was being "talked about" she will recover... the poor pup now might not be adopted. I don't understand why a discussion on a yorkie FORUM (which is what this is for) would upset you so much to the point of teller that breeder anything. So you may have made yourself feel better for running to tell the breeder, but now that little pup has probably no chance. Unbelievable.... |
sorry you feel that way, but I was not the only one that emailed her from YT to let her know what was beening said. And I would not sell a dog to some one that was going to go around a talk bad about me and my dogs. You are the one that is wrong. Sorry but I am the one that is not 2 faced, I posted that I emailed her, I never doing anything behind someones back. I only tell it the way I see it. I am sure the dog will end up in a great home. She will answer my email, I will be sure to let everyone know when the dog in placed. |
