| Need to VENT! ok people! This is to the people who are "selling" fake yorkies. I have been " lucky" enough to meet you people. You go online and copy and paste yorkies on the internet and act like you are selling them, then you tell me to send you money or give you my address...I am so SICK of it. If you are looking to make money GO GET A FREAKING JOB! If you are incapable of doing that collect cans, do something. Stop playing with people emotions! You people make me sick! Also I have seen some of you on here as well....That makes me even sicker! You sit here and try to be friends with us so we TRUST you!! Well I dont. I can see right through you and your sneaky ways! As long as I am around I will find you and I will call you out, so no one will give in to your sick ways! You give people that are really trying to sell yorkies a bad name. You make me sick!

| I'm so sorry to hear you are having these horrible things happen to you in your puppy search. May I suggest you use Yorkshire Terrier Club of America (ytca.org) as a starting point and find yourself a trustworthy breeder. You won't regret it, I promise you. When I first bought Sophie, I went down the wrong avenue. I've now just purchased a Biewer a la Pom Pon and I researched the breed, it's history, and it's breeder code of ethics. I can tell you I feel much more comfortable with this purchase. Sophie (my Yorkie) is a beautiful dog but I consider myself "lucky" that worse things didn't happen. Good luck to you!

| aww thanks guys!! You guys just made me feel a whole lot better by sticking by me I am actually glad that I have seen the other side of these people, it makes me open my eyes and want to do something about it, even if it is something little by calling them out. At least they know, people know what they are doing!! I cant even put a price on peanut!! If someone offered me 10 grand I would deny it. It just really hurts that some people are re-homeing their yorkies and putting a price on them..I mean I know times are hard, but putting a price on your yorkie is crazy!! If I had to re-home peanut for whatever reason I honestly would be more concerned with how is was going to be cared for. And these people only care about how much they are going to sell them for, and who is going to be pay. Makes me sick

| Wow, I've not seen anything like that on here. Beware of those ads of Missionaries from Africa, incorrect wording in sentences, and usually bringing up God. If it sounds too good to be true.. it just might be! If you see it going on here, I'm sure Admin would love to know about it! |

| I receive one line emails all the time.. "How Much are your puppies" which I delete those emails and don't answer. I figure anyone more worried about price than quality and health, doesn't need my puppy. I am more interested in the home they will be going to than how much money they are wanting to spend. Breeders also receive emails from those wanting to arrange a shipping agent, and sending a cashier's check, which is also counterfeit. They are easy to spot with the term, "present condition" of the dog. No Breed is usually mentioned. I'm surprised anyone would fall for that one, because we want to make sure of the homes they go to and talk with them personally. Gut feeling helps too! |
