| I only have one question. In each of their descriptions of puppy and pricing they give the shipping price like it is a must. Don't they give the option of picking the puppy up? I realize your friend probably won't go to Missouri to pick up the pup but I would pretend I might to get their reaction. If they won't allow me to come and visit if I want to then I wouldn't by a pup from them for sure.

One other thing I saw since I PM'd you... if you look at the picture with the litters in the cages... it looks like there are a lot of tiny puppies... How many litters does she have at one time?

| I wonder if the puppies live in the tiny cages displayed so neatly?

| Cute babies but I wonder why they aren't AKC registered? Never heard of APRI. |

| Also wonder why no pictures of the sire and dam. Most all of the breeders I've seen that are here on YT will have pictures of the parents or at the very least, the dam along with the pictures of the babies. |

| There is no mention of the parents and no mention of any kind of health guarantee. I'm wondering if they are brokers posing as breeders.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | Notice how the site says, We are inspected and accredited by the American Kennel Club, although we are now registering our puppies with A.P.R.I. (America's Pet Registery). All this means is that at one time they may have owned an AKC dog, and at one time they passed inspections, if they are switching to APRI, who does not inspections, you have to wonder why. Here's some information on APRI. Quote:

Reputable Breeder if she is okay my friend will give me the money and ill pick the dog up for her and use my paypal account, however i think if shes on to the fact i am trying to seek outside help if shes not a reputable breeder she might shut down she sent me a pic of the mother, but claims most yorkies dont look anything like their parents but i do have a pic of her shes very cute, but looks young 2008-03-24MISC-0057.JPG Last edited by star28c; 04-11-2010 at 11:19 AM. | |

| I would not buy a dog from this breeder for the same reasons other people have posted about. I know the price looks good but that is not a reason to buy from her...Just remember they are all nice when you are buying..

| Maybe you should take a look at this thread about brokers and how they work. It doesn't seem to be getting the attention that I feel it deserves. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...rch-puppy.html To me these people look to be Brokers just one more bottom feeder.

| Common practice with many breeder/exhibitors. Water bottles keep the water sanitary, and the facial furnishings from getting wet and attracting bacteria.
