Ben pottying by the door...could be his way of letting you know he doesn't like you gone, not you bad, him just a bit sad. I'd say that's smart of him...my one Yorkie is a bit of a smarta** too! She "tattles" on the other adult all the time. It's pretty funny.
Getting late here, gotta go to bed. It's been fun talking to you about our puppies.

She said because they are so little, it would be dangerous. She let's the new owner bare the cost and says she doesn't make any money off of breeding because of how much the vaccines have gone up. I could see that and understand...I'm waiting until it is 9 weeks old so that I can get her started on wormings and vaccines she needs because she won't have them before then. I have just recently bought a Yorkie puppy at age 11 weeks and the breeder is a registered AKC breeder who has given all of the wormings and vaccines before we picked her up. Except for the last set of shots. I will take her for that. But my question is this, how come the breeder of the pup I have now (Izzy) has had all but one set of shots and all her worming at 11 weeks and she is just as small as the other CKC ladies litter I'm to get a pup from? Am I making sense? What is your opinion? I just think if she cared about her puppies well being...if she can't afford to give them shots at the proper time then maybe she shouldn't be breeding dogs? Am I right? *sigh*

Thanks Nancy
I have the AKC Yorkie pup we picked up from the breeder at 11 weeks...she was 2.7 lbs then and now weighing her at Vet yesterday she is weighing in at almost 3 lbs at 15 wks. She's the one that had all but one set of shots left and we took her to get them and also she had all wormings by 11 wks too. This breeder had excellent health records of shots given and wormings etc...and a nice packet in plastic vinyl for our records. Now the puppy that was born yesterday evening will be CKC and she is the breeder that says she doesn't want to give the pups shots or wormings and it's up to us as owner's to do this. Well, bottom line is, I not knowing any better has sunk 250.00 down payment into this puppy. That's the problem. Should I get this puppy and get her shots and wormings and take the chance of her coming into contact without any of her shots to my yorkie AKC pup? Or get the puppy get her shots then sell her? Or just forfeit my down payment? Geesh, I am so stupid for not being more careful, flags should have hit me in the face!!!! GRRRRRRrrrrrr:mad:

Thanks guys, I have decided to forfeit the deposit. I want a healthy puppy and to find a breeder who is trustworthy and cares about their puppies and the need to place their puppies in the very best of homes. Nancy, thank you for helping me...you guys are the best :) It's sad that I had my hopes up for Izzy to have a friend and now they are shattered. But a lesson learned...for me & my dear husband, we will be more cautious when finding another breeder.

Yes, capt_noonie, I am open to knowledge and experience. That is why I came to join this forum. I realize all of you have the knowledge I haven't at this point. I am learning everyday by reading. Not defensive at all. Yes, 250.00 is a lot of money these days but I would rather forfeit now because I love the little 15 week old Yorkie I have now so much that I don't want to endanger her with what could come with a sick puppy. I'd never forgive myself if I did that.

I am off on the quest to find another breeder, because I really want a puppy to grow up with my Izzy. She is such a sweet puppy and I know when I see the puppy I want and the breeder I feel is legit, I will know it. Lesson learned.

I think so too -- mine like I said were showing a preference for the pad just not fully trained. I think that is the best thing about raising them in a play yard with most of it covered in pee pads. They have their bed area and their eating area and they just naturally pee on the pads. Then they tend to prefer a pad when you let them have more room to roam. But if they get too large an area, mine normally would just go ahead and pee. The only one that fussed for something to pee on was that little girl. I should have kept her! :) My problem with my last litter was I had too many wanting females before the litter was ever born. I should have still kept one but I went ahead and placed them all. My boys think I am crazy here a year and a half later, buying a little female myself! Timing had a lot to do with it too. After I lost my momma dog, I was not wanting to replace her. I needed to get some time between them so I would not be comparing, you know what I mean? Going off track again, sorry. But yes, I do believe some can be trained early. I just have not had the best luck at getting them fully house trained that early myself. I start thinking progress is made, and then ..... I get a surprise. I won't get concerned for another month. I usually have them house-trained for the most part by 6 months. My adults will occasionally have accidents too. I found it funny as you described the same place for your adult's accidents. Mine too -- right by the front door. I do not let them out the front door nor use a puppy pad there. So, why that is where the "accident" happens, I don't know. I sometimes think Ben is doing it on purpose to say he did not like me being gone -- I usually leave by the front door. So maybe he equates that with me being bad?

That is true Rhett's mama, I had a gutt feeling about her and when she told me this, I decided to forfeit my deposit. I lost the deposit but I think I am making the right decision.

I am having a hard time finding a breeder with YTCA that will sell their puppies without being spayed. Not to mention none of them are answering their phones & emails are being bounced back to me :( Getting discouraged about Izzy a sister now :confused:
