isnt she a doll , i had to get her shaved bc she was matted and with pee and in her feet hair..and her peep hair was like 6 inches!! I am so upset at myself..the breeder wouldnt take her back, (some breeder) I probably saved the babies life!

Glad you are giving it a little more time! It took each of min almost a month to accept the newest member. Our dachshund went into a depression and would not interact with us for a week. Then she ignored our first Yorkie for another week or two. Finally she found that it was pretty fun to have a little chew toy! And they were fast friends after that. Then when my son got a Jack Russell, the others ignored her. She was persistant though and they all became friends too. It just takes time. I would not push them together, let them work it out.

She is a cutie! I do understand people wanting the papers, I wanted them for all of mine, even though I spayed them myself until Sadie. Remember since the papers are marked limited, they cannot register any puppies if they were to breed her. I think people just like the papers to assure themselves the dog is a product of AKC breeding. That was my thinking anyway.

I paid $1500 for Sadie too. I think that was a fair price for a female puppy from an experience, AKC breeder. I think you were right to reduce the price to $900 since yours is older. People expect to pay less if they do not get them as a puppy, especially if they are not spayed and house-trained. But hopefully, you won't have to worry about a price and it will all work out between your two! Good luck!

Please don't feel bad. I had a similar experience when I added a new 7 month old named Hazel to our family. I started a thread called "Caution when adding a second puppy." I tried for over six weeks to deal with the adjustment until Hazel's aggression toward Sophie and other issues became too much. I felt guilty, too. It breaks your heart. The breeder would have taken her back but instead I took the loss and gave her to a new home with a very loving family I know who adores Hazel and now Sophie is much, much happier again, too. Sometimes their personalities just aren't a good fit. If you were that uncomfortable with the situation for whatever reason then I think you did the right thing.

Yes, thank you. I agree I had to do what was right for Peanut..This is his home and he has been with me for 2 years..I took the loss as well and found a great home for her!!

Sorry to hear about your recent troubles. I'm sure you know what's best for peanut and your family more than anyone else.

And on the plus side, you saved an innocent baby from a horrible breeder. I don't know this breeder, but I can tell that that's not what I would call a responsible, compassionate breeder.

A good breeder NEVER lets their puppies get to that state. Also, they almost always take their puppies back. I got Sushi, Sake, And KitCat strsaight from their breeders, and it's actually in the contract I signed that if I ever decided to rehome these babies I will have to call the breeder first. They would take them back any day. Two of them actually went as far as making me sign that even if at some point I found a new home for them, I have to get the breeder's approval for the new home. I guess they just wanna make sure that their babies are always looked after and with responsible reliable owners. And I can't blame them!

Thank you for your kind words... you know now that I think of it I honeslty can say she is a horrible breeder. She said she gave the puppy her de- worming medicine.. but why did she have worms? Why was she covered in pee? why did she has mats all over herself?? I should have known , I should have seen the signs.. Yes you are right a good breeder would have taken her back, a breeder that cares, but she doesnt and you know what I am GLAD, I found her a better home where she will be loved and spoiled, so thats better to me even if I lost money, at least she doesn't go back to the breeder and be mistreated.

Is there something I can do to report her..I know she has other yorkies..but I dont really know what to do on this.. if I should do something or let it be.. I just feel bad for the rest of the yorkies she has.

That is the same contract my breeder has. She is excellent! I confirmed with my breeder what I was about to do and why and she agreed. She also asks for updates periodically. She loves all her puppies

and we can only tell you our experiences. But, only you know your Peanut and you have to go with your gut. Gosh, what if you listened to us and not your heart and Peanut went pitbull for a split second and there was a tragedy. You would have had to live with it, not us. Only takes a blink of an eye, and it wouldn't have been Peanut's fault.

So, you found the new baby a wonderful home, rescued her from a terrible situation..in other words, made a rather expensive charitable donation.

Gave your DH some bankable brownie points he can cash in later for something cool he wants.

Peanut gets extra special treatment just for existing.

Sounds like a win-win for everyone....

Thank you! I know, thats what I was scared of..I didn't want pnut or the baby to get hurt...Peanut is a different dog lol He is not like any other!! And I am serious when I say that lol..He wants me and only me

and you know what ....I just want him..so it works out!!

Yes the baby has a great home!! I am glad she isn't back at the breeders. I guess I did make a very expensive charitable donation lol..

Oh yes DH is already cashing in some of his points lol He is a great DH!! He can't stay mad at me for long

I know his sweet spots! The sad thing is DH loved the baby girl..he wanted to keep her.. but we both agreed it wasn't the right thing to do. Now I will work on saving money to pay off the credit card =( hehe

You live and learn...we all make mistakes, but how we fix them is up to us!

( i just made that up lol)

ashleere · 09-01-2009, 03:02 PM

I am so glad you are going to give it more time...When we brought Oliver home Buttons was a mess. He wouldn't even look at me. Well, it has ben 2.5 months and they chase each other all over the place. Oliver is only 4.5 months old and has so much energy and is such an instigator, Buttons is 4 yrs old and very mellow but, do not mess with his private stash of toys or else. But other than that they are buds now, won't sleep in the same bed yet but thats ok. Good luck. PM me any time you need to talk.

I had a 2 yr old female when I bought another female. Lillie was just 8 weeks old (I know,..too young) Sadie was VERY jealous of her new baby fursister. You could see a look of saddness in her eyes when we would hold Lillie...Just broke my heart. I thought "what have I done? was this the right decision" It took Sadie well over a month before she decided she liked her new fursister,...Now,Sadie 4 yrs old and Lillie 3 yrs old, are great together. I'm glad that I waited it out.

4doggiemama · 09-01-2009, 04:33 PM

I can see by the first photo you posted that she is going to be a lovely Yorkie when her hair grows back out. All but one of mine are rescues and they all take quite awhile to adjust. It will be okay. ~Joanne~
