I see NatNatt hasnt responded personally, I got my first Yorkie at 6 weeks old. firstly because I didnt know any better, and secondly because my breeder was very irresponsible and was rushing overseas and pushing to sell her puppies and home them as soon as she could.

I never had the faintest idea how hard it would be and I had endless sleepless nights where I would sit there and watch her sleep in case she was not breathing (Im slightly paranoid at the best of times!). when she came to me she had not a SINGLE tooth in her mouth and had her first innoculation the same day. on top of that the stress she endured leaving her mom and siblings pushed her past her limit and she started to vomit violently and I had to rush her into emergency on the first night I had her. My friend who bought her sister sent her back to the breeder for 2 weeks but I stuck it out because the vet said that re-uniting her would do no good and she would suffer more stress when she left again.

They had to test for Parvo etc to rule it out and her blood tests showed a high white blood cell count and if i hadnt taken her in she would have died. she had to have a drip to give her fluids and get her back. she bounced back so quickly though and is a real fighter she is a fit as a fiddle now and if i had to do it all over again I would because my life would be so empty without her.

The second puppy came to me at 8 weeks and I was doubtful again - but he had all his teeth and was eating well and has not given me a single problem. The breeder gave me the choice of leaving him depending on how I felt he would cope.

So NatNatt, through all the stress Im sure you have endured, whether it was right to take your puppy young or not, I say well done for all your hard work you have put in. I hope you and your baby have a wonderful and healthy future together

I've been reading this thread hoping the OP would come back and give thanks where thanks is deserved. I looked at some of the older threads, and she got a ton of help from YT'ers who know what they're talking about. Such a shame that credit is not given when due.

I'm glad your pup is doing well, and I hope he continues to have a long, healthy, happy life.

I just want to note that it isn't only the puppy who suffers. Our Dany was a puppymill bred dog and when she hears puppy noises coming from the TV, she looks around for the pups and looks so lost and depressed. It breaks my heart every time, and I try to mute or change the channel before she can hear it. The only thing I can come up with is that her puppies were taken from her too early. Just a thought.

Oh, I am so sorry for little Dany. This is just the saddest thing. It's hearbreaking. I wish I could give little Dany a hug and a kiss. I'm glad she is with you getting all the love she can handle

That is heartbreaking! Poor girl. I hate puppymills and my mind cannot comprehend the kind of person that would do that

I don't think I was here, or maybe don't remember what happen, but it seems that lots people help you, and that is yt for you, it can be a lot of drama somentimes, but also mucho mas (lot more)help from passionate people that love the breed, and I love that about yt, I have made wonderful, precious friends in here. Give Cesar what belongs to Cesar and give God what belong to God, so I don't think it will hurt to come here and be humble and thank, eveyone who help you, don't go by your feelings, about who or what hurt you , it was, and it is , about the puppy, glad that your furbaby is doing good.
Ps. I don't think getting a pup so young is right either

Ok, I'm confused here. There are some members on here who want a thank you from the OP and believe that they are the ones who saved this Yorkies life and contributed to it being healthy to date (given the circumstances and mistakes made), but yet in the same sentence, this OP ignored everyone's advice??? So can anyone tell me if good advice is ignored than how can people be responsible for "saving" or contributing to the Yorkies well being if nothing they had to say was listened to and their advice not taken at all. Doesn't make much sense does it? Seems like this Yorkie was a lucky one. Also on another note - I don't see the need to go out of ones way to create a thread stating or should I say throwing it in people's face a Yorkies well being by doing things their way contrary to people's innocent and good warnings. Seems very childish and something that only would possibly stir up drama....

I guess the only way to explain it is if you were around and read a lot of what was posted. There were times were good advice was given, but it was given repeatedly. At first the OP resisted and basically told us to leave her alone, yet time and time again she would post. From what she wrote it seemed like she didn't want help, but also from her posts later on it was evident that some of the information and good advice trickled in since she eventually acted in the pup's best interest.

You hit the nail on the head Melcakes. I personally wish we would/could just ignore any posts started by her but we love her little furbutt and want to make sure it is going to be alright in spite of the way she acts.

Thanks, MI Yorkielover, mojo, and PANAMA69. Dany gets hugs and kisses every day and she's even beginning to like it!

I hope the pup continues to thrive and I hope OP does continue to research the breed to make sure she does what's right by him.

Well said!

No need to rehash the situation...everyone remembers your initial questions, the manner of your responses as you threw it back at everyone, and your multiple threads seeking help with the problems everyone warned you about.

I am very happy to hear that your little one is doing well, for HIS sake, especially given your overnight 'relocation' from FL, to VA and then back again.

Your testimony only serves as an example that sometimes people get lucky in the way situations that are less than ideal work out. Fortunately, those same members offered you valuable information on the possible complications you chose to ignore are still here and willing to help others in the future that may be more receptive of their advice. The next person who decides to gamble may not have such a happy outcome, as I'm sure many of the open minded members here can attest.

He just recently started to sleep with me because he is able to hold going to the potty durning the entire night. He is 2.2 Pounds so I think he is going to stay very small but he is very good and healthy and just wanted to let you all know whats going on with ...expecually the people the doubted me and gave me a hard time. Now I can smile and say...I did good and its possible to take a baby at a young age you just have to have the time and money and education to do it.

Love you all

This post is very arrogant. Yhou cme on here numerous times for advice and it is possible (more likely) that the advice you were given is why your puppy is healthy.

However 4 months is not a long time. he is still a baby and you still have no idea what he will be like as an adult. So if I were you I would keep my words sweet because you could end up eating tham AGAIN as you have had to in the past. His personality is not shaped yet.

I'm glad that your baby is doing well and hope it continues that way, but I think the fine people on YT that gave you advice deserve some thanks for your healthy puppy.

A little humility would look much better on you than the arrogance you are wearing.

Time? Money? Education? Ha

She was given advice that she initally ignored . Then later came back and told how she resolved the problem. And it was by following the advice that she had been given, but she acted like she had come up with the solution on her own.

The verdict is yet to e determined.f

it "ain't" over till it's over
