She has allowed her bitches to suffer and even die while giving birth in the past, yet she continues to produce puppies. There is nothing you can say to justify what she is doing including stating that she is feeding a market. She allowed a bitch to crawl about her living room while giving birth with a puppy stuck in her vaginal for hours crying in agony. Then took pictures of her preteen daughter holding that dead puppy. She sat with another bitch in the parking lot of her vets office while in labor because she did not have the financial mean to pay for an emergency c-section in the middle of the night. There is NOTHING to justify this type of behavior or unethical breeding practices to feed the need for tiny puppies. Additionally, there is not a reputable breeder that would EVER breed 2 and 3 lb females to intentionally feed this need. Saying that there is a need for this tiny sized Yorkie is like saying baby seals should be clubbed to head because someone wants a seal fur coat!

Finally, I would like to remind you that after your Ellie died from complications of AAI you contacted me to help you bring home your new little girls from Michigan. I picked Lynnie up at the train station and drove from Chicago to Michigan. We met Wendy and her husband on the side of a highway. The reason that I did this was to help you both heal from the loss of your little girl Ellie and help to med the heartache that was created by your breeder. I remember you saying that your breeder did nothing to help you both financially when you spent a great deal of money to try to save her. Your response to me afterward was to UNFRIEND me on Facebook after I drove HOURS to pick up your new baby. You then lied to me about not removing me as a friend, claiming you didn't know how that could have possibly happened. :rolleyes: You asked me to send you another friend request that has sat ignored for almost 2 years. Your actions toward me speak volumes then as well as now. My lesson was learned. :(


I will not stop with Tanisha EVER! She needs to be stopped and the misery that she perpetuates from her breeding ethics is not something that you or anyone else will ever be able to justify in my eyes.

Prayers from you or anyone else will not help this poor puppy. Rescue and responsibly will. :thumbdown

You did not need to tell me about her- i am well aware of her breeding practices. God knows i do not condone the bad things. Simply was keeping door cracked in case she would change her mind. You sold me too short about what i know and have actively confronted in this entire case.
Just this morning i stated to someone in our aai group it was difficult to know to to comment in this thread- because i was grateful to you for what you did for lynn to get to Maleah. Then to ladyjane because of transport of roriee. And she was always supportive with Ellie.
But all of that got ruined.
I am terribly offended you chose to bring up a subject not related to this topic.
To bring up my beloved Ellie and my precious Maleah is unacceptable to me.
To bring up fb and call me a LIAR is highly unacceptable to me. I owe you no explaination. Esp now- why i select who my fb friends are.
But you can assume i want positive People in my life. Certainly not one that disses my baby i lost to aai and my sweet gifted yorkie. I have done nothing to you and i am shocked at your outburst.
You have now shown me why i never come here- you come across as caring more about insulting people than anything. And i am tired of it.
For the record i do appreciate the past but deeply insulted by your behavior and emotional outbursts about something so superficial as fb - while discussing a serious aai matter. . I am done.

Yet again where the focus should be on this poor little girl, people are making inflammatory comments, confronting their own personal adversity, have no behavioral code yet again on these forums with attempts of public shaming ? This belongs on a reality show not here where we are attempting to educate and intercede on a pups behalf. No position of respect, they like the titillation of watching someone else's fall of grace, especially if its about someone they thought owed them. This is 2 minutes of fame. No decorum or class.

Lets return to our personal commitment of the betterment of the breed, teach, educate, inform, and enlighten with the hope this pup can be saved before another tragedy happens.

I have a surviving AAI girl that I adore and abhor the breeder who breed her this way and continues to breed knowing of Shelby's numerous congenital defects !

I pray this girl receives her surgery and medical care that she deserves

Then she will take the leftover money buy more teeny dogs and keep breeding

If she is collecting donations and stating they are tax deductible and she does not have tax deductible status, I would think that is fraud. Don't know for sure, but that is what I think.
Also, you cannot claim a deduction for a raffle ticket purchase. If you get something for your money, it is NOT tax deductible.

The tax business is very picky. Where I work has a tax exempt number and it only works for certain things. Not everything. I think tax deductible is very similar. I am sure there are rules you could find online. But with your experience LJ I would think you certainly know what you are talking about!! ;)

Yes, I will always speak for the pups...always! I will also, if necessary, speak up about bad breeding practices. I don't allow breeders to get me in that frame of mind that I must be nice to them. That is a ploy that many of the millers use...if you are nice to me I will surrender pups to you. I see a lot of people doing that...all it does is enable those POS breeders to continue on with their awful practices.
I am not on a campaign to go after breeders and I don't believe that all breeders are bad.......I have my hands very full saving pups...but I am also not going to be muzzled if I feel my voice might help to shut down a bad situation.
