If responsible breeders do not advertise in such places as "puppy find" the public is the one who suffers. When folks contact you you try and educate them I have found that my prices are often cheaper then many of the not so desirable breeders they may find on the site- and that often I can refer them to people who can help them find a yorkie. If you are not part of the solution then you are part of the problem. | |

| Yes, I agree with these posts. Take your time! Learn and talk to as many Yorkie people as you can. DON'T buy anything from Nigeria. This is a scam. You can always go to your local vets or groomers for some advice on good breeders. They may have someone they know who has Yorkies and can help you. Good luck finding your baby. |

| I don't think there is anything wrong with Puppyfind. Try to find a breeder close to you so you can look at the puppy and also at least one of the parents. Ask lots of questions. Maybe then you can get back on YT and see if anyone has bought a dog from this breeder before. |

| Please Read Cheryl Boettger is still at it I too purchased a pup (pom) from Cheryl Boettger on the nextday pup site. I experienced most of the negative things with the exception my baby is still with me but she has moderate to severe pulmonary stenosis. Her lifespan most probable is 2 - 3 yrs. I really need anybody who had a bad transaction w/this woman and her daughter Carrie, to get in touch with me so whe can do something to shut her down. Please let me know if anyone has had any success already in making her own up to her heartless actions. |

| ABSOLUTELY NO NO and again NO. Puppyfind is well known as not reputable source to buy a puppy from. Most of sellers there are backyard breeders and puppy millers. Please, read this topic WHY you should never ever buy online, especially from sites like that. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...g-right-2.html and http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...buy-puppy.html read more PUPPYFIND.COM AND THEIR AFFILIATES ARE AWARE THAT THE MAJORITY OF THERE PUPPY SELLERS ARE OVERSEAS PUPPY MILLS Puppyfind.com FRAUD SCAM PUPPY MILL AT PUPPYFIND.COM Teacup poodles PuppyFind Complaints - Scam site! Puppy e-Mills Churn Out Sick Dogs, Big Profits Is puppy find a puppy mill site or it it real breeders.? - Yahoo! Answers and many more... Just do not support misery, please |

| Cheryl Boettger My Precious Poms I have been busy. I have really made some progress in getting the news out the Cheryl Boettger is selling sick dogs from her hotel. If you get a chance, please check out ripoffreport.com to see other people that have had some issues. I also posted there. I found someone who is taking legal action against her. I plan to do the same. I just can't believe someone could do this with animals and then to get away with it for years. Hope everyone's babies are doing fine. I am considering a yorkie for my baby. |

| I sell and buy from puppyFind. The key is to be an educated consumer. i am amazed that people don't take the time to educate themselves then cry, buyer beware when the fault is usually their own . I have never, ever had a bad experience with doing either. I list all my puppies there and I am neither a backyard breeder or puppymill. if you think we all are, you would be very surprised to know some people that post puppies for sale there. |

| Be careful of scams! I was online looking for a puppy several times and I was on several sites and I kept coming across African Missionaries with cheap pups! I was so close the first time to sending money to one and it was all a scam. I would be careful- check out the forum on here YT breeders or nursery. Good luck!

I too have purchased and sold on puppyfind. And, have had wonderful experiences! To bad mouth everyone on the sight is just plain wrong... I am neither a broker, BRB or puppymiller!!! Neither are any of my breeder friends that post there. Remember, purchasing an animal is a long term commitment. Therefore, it is up to the consumer to research and research some more BEFORE making a purchase. And, be willing to go visit the place/person that you are making your purchase from. Take the time to get to know your Breeder, develop a rapport, be willing to be placed on a waiting list and wait for a puppy if necessary, check references, etc.! Otherwise...I've never been one to sound harsh but - SHAME ON YOU!!! | |

| This is the site my hubby found our dog on. He searched and searched their names and everything and found nothing bad about them, had gotten some references, all their information, spoke by email and phone several times and even had them send pictures with his name and info on them and the dog that was shipped WAS the exact dog in the pictures and she is 100% healthy and exactly what they said she was. It was a good experience, but of course you get what you pay for. He didn't go for the first cheap dog he found, we paid a fair amount for her and it was an average price that this kind of dog goes for. They only bred one type of dog too. |
