Sounds like it might be TOni trying to redeem her credibility.

Funny how that always happens :rolleyes:

Wow!!!
 
WOW!:eek: thats really a terrible thing what that lady did, and the conditions in which those poor doggies have to endure. The best thing probably would be to report to animal cruelty and neglect, so that she can't continue beating people out of a large sum of money. Its no telling how many people she has already conned. Please take action! To hear such a story, makes my heart ache.:( The puppies depend on us!

Yes, the only thing that brings me joy out of all this is that I feel like I rescued the puppy and placed it in a home that it deserves with lots of love and care. If it was truly bought to live it's days in that kennel and be bred to death to make money I feel like I saved her.

I'm sorry that you had to go through this. thank you for standing out sharing your experience with us. It just breaks my heart to hear her yorkies stay in outside kennel and not raised inside as family memebers.:(

WalnutHill 03-14-2010 08:53 AM

IF the dogs are all running together, how does the breeder know who sired a litter? that may be the thing to contact the AKC about.

MaddiesMommie 03-14-2010 08:56 AM

I am so sorry your family had to learn this lesson the hard way. :(

I just linked this thread to several of the email addresses that were listed in her guestbook. For some, they have already bought dogs and even found a YT member on there!:eek:

MaddiesMommie 03-14-2010 09:29 AM

I should also add this member bought a dog from her to breed.:mad:
Please take the OP's advice and be careful when buying a Yorkie!

gaiasdaughter00 03-14-2010 10:39 AM

please dont be so hardon yourself. its obvious you have "learned" but also remember you have given that dog a chance at a better life. sadly it had to be at your pocket books expense. You are a good person. I think deep down you knew what was wrong here, but your heart choose to ignore it so that that pup could get out. I have done it tons of times more because I had to get the dog out of there. Luckily for me the only expenses i have had were on care. My heart is way too big and I have had a bad habit of "craigslist shopping" and going and getting a dog that I felt needed to get the hell outa that place!
so one person out of how many have been to this kennel and purchased a dog from them and reported a good review? hmm ONE person.. yea... I'm going with the majority on this one... and the op. bless your heart hun.. so much emtional stress on you lately.
oh and i have asked several "breeders" what their "return policy" is.. and i have heard many of them say that they can not risk exposing their kennel to things like parvo so they do not take them back. has anyone else heard this before?

nicholasdale 03-17-2010 07:31 PM

so sad
 
I have read this and it has been brought to my attention by past by some of my past happy yorkie owners and all I have to say is what a shame, first and far most many of you do not even know me or ever gotton a yorkie from me. I refuse to come on here and get into a dipute with people posting on what some one else has said and go back and forth with aruguments. I am not a puppy mill and My dogs are not outside!! It is very obvious you can not always please everyone in life, but try to defend and justify my self by untrue accursation made by some one else when there are always 2 sides and people choose to believe a one sided story. I have had many many very happy new yorkie owners which any of you are more than welcome to conatct.
I am not perfect and you can never please everyone no matter hard you try.
Its very sad that people jump on negitive and not talk with the happy people that have bought yorkies from me before passing judment and posting or seeing for your self how my yorkies are raised and cared for.
And maddie why you are on such a mission when you have never bought a yorkie from me or seen how my dogs are made is really sad. I do not what you are attempting to accomplish by this, but i think before you past judment against me maybe you should come see for yourself before judging then you can state truth instead of hear say.
And as far as me posting anything on here and saying I was the one who posted it far from the truth. I do not come on here much and when I do i idinifey myself and take responsibiltiy for my post.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and any one is more than welcome to contact me or visit my yorkies.

Well i can understand if you are being accused unjustly but, but i have one question and im just asking not making accusations, have you contacted your customers that had complaints and tried to make any resolutions. I understand things can happen, but if someone can prove a puppy was ill when it left your establishment, do you work with them to help offset vet costs? Seems like any breeder works with their customers to come to amicable agreements for not only your businesses reputation but most importantly the health and well being of the puppy.

Oh yeah she said it must be her dress making her act weird, so she took it off. Then she took us out to see her dog kennel. Oh my gosh me and my girls almost threw up the smell was so horribly strong and nauseating and there was feces and urine all over the floor and the dogs were just running all in it. She says that her pregnant dogs stay inside, but she had a pregnant dog out there because she picked her up and showed me her belly and said she has 2 in there. Her puppies that are for sale are out there in that mess too. Not inside being socialized. I ignored my gut instinct and bought the dog anyway. I guess that I was desperate to replace my puppy that I had recently lost. I am not even sure how she acquired this puppy because she said she never met the breeder or seen it's parents and that she got her through someone else. I asked her if the puppy had lost all her baby teeth and she said yeah all but two. We got the puppy home and I took her to my vet because her ears smelled horrible. The vet said she had severe yeast infections in both ears. Would this not be considered neglect? He also said that she had about 8 teeth that would have to be pulled. I started to wonder if she had ever even picked up this puppy.

just this part of the review says it all. Pretty bad :thumbdown

unfortunatly - there's a ton of 'breeders' out there that use puppies as income and provide minimal care - they just want that sale.

nicholasdale 03-18-2010 05:50 AM

do not use for income!!
 
She did call and say" female had slight yeast in her ears but also stated the female was healthy beside this and her vet said this us not uncommon in yorkies". She checked out fine at my vet 3 days prior.

I DO NOTuse my dogs as a income by no means, I am a hobby breeder, I sold this female for far less than what was given for her. I could not even break even for what I have into my dogs. With this said I actually took a huge loss but thought she would have a good home with this family not replaced 2 weeks later. I did offer to help find a good home for her AND SHE WAS POSTED ON PUPPY FIND by the buyer. Also she states she recued this baby, she was being sold for a pet only and was not going to breed because of size, so to stay here and just be bred is far from the truth this is why she was going into a pet home to begin with,

Once again no one is perfect and next time i will be more cautious before letting one of my yorkies leave with a family. U have made many of families happy and it is infortunate but no one can always make everyone happy.

miababyjeff 03-18-2010 08:53 AM

She says that she offered to help us find her a home, but after we told her we wanted to bring the puppy back she quit answering our phone calls on her home line, her cell phone and would not respond to our emails. She is not being truthful here. I tried for days to get in touch with her with no response. She no more wanted to help the puppy find a home than she wanted to give our money back. She didn't care at all what happened to that puppy once it left her home and she had the money. SAD!!:(

Pup-e-Love 03-18-2010 09:30 AM

It is hard to find someone credible when they only have 3 posts on YT, and 2 of them where from defending themselves. Kind of makes you go "hmmmm..."
