However, again, I am going to make you angry. I know a very good tiny breeder, and she only breeds for tiny yorkies. She loves her dogs. She takes a lot of care and spends a lot of money with vet care and keeping everything safe and the breed as best she can, like the ladies here. Just because she breeds tinies and does ask a lot for them doesn't mean she is not a good breeder. I take that as an insult to her.

Sure there are not good tiny breeders out there and there are breeders tha that have the standard that aren't good either.

What my question is....why all the fuss about the tiny yorkies? Why do you get so upset about it?

I hope you are not talking about the breeder in South Dakota

It really is pathetic that people will continue to support greeders.

That puppie also looks fake to me! and I do beleive its a scam5,000.00 really?My axel is 5.5 lbs and is very tiny I wouldn't want one any smaller! He is by no means big! he is like a little furball especially when he curls up like a cat.

I found the website and gave them a piece of my mind. I have a 3.3 lb Yorkie and I teasingly call him neurotic. He is afraid of everything, plus I worry about his knees now that he is 9 years old. He was a rescue and I have no idea if he was from a puppy mill. I love my little guy, but I worry if I will be able to afford his surgery. Little dogs definitely come with their problems.

well thats true there sure are a lot of those scammer out there i like all size yorkies it doesn't matter how big they are it's their personality and how much they love people they seem like their little people themselves their such a happy little dog they are sure a joy there's not a day that goes by that mine don't make me smile I just love them. A 4 to 7-lb yorkie is a nice yorkie I don't consider them big either I have seen 14-lb yorkies that people have and they just love them.

I don't understand why people insist on producing such tiny delicate puppies! I am totally speechless ......

I see TOO many of these ads...and on craigslist too. They drive me nuts and make me really sad...because...do these people know the problem they are causing for these animals???! It's really depressing...and if they know and still do it...: I'm also very speechless.

I think what angers me the most is, yes these dogs are particularly small, but that it's not the breeder but the buyer that is so obsessed with finding the tiniest dog for their handbag to match their shoes.
They have created these over breeding situations with supply and demand and there are some ruthless people take advantage of this and jack the price through the sky.
No thought to the poor pup who could or could not end up with health issues.

I agree with you wholeheartedly and said pretty much the same thing in an earlier post. Buyers dont like to hear they share in the blame for them being bred and costing outrageous prices.

Ding, ding, ding, ding...we have a winner. Of course, "because the buyers demand it" isn't an excuse to do it either.

I looked at the add and the puppy and if you really look close at it I think it is a stuffed animal i don't even think thats a real yorkie look at the hair anyone who has a yorkie would beable to see this. I think thats a scam

Absolutely! Chachi, do you see a change in Yorkietalk regarding this? Four years ago, it really seemed like everyone wanted to buy a tiny, now it's like more and more people realize that that's not a good thing.

The thing that makes me think it's NOT a stuffed animal (unfortunately) is that the ears are lower in the second pic versus the first. Dunno, either way it's a bad thing.
