I am tired of getting my hopes up for nothing
 

Sorry, everyone I am just feeling really depressed. I did not know where else to get things off my chest but here. I have been searching for my yorkie baby for almost 3 months now and it is getting so frustrating. I placed several internet ads, but don't hardly get any responses. I have been checking my local paper forever without 1 yorkie listing. I found one yorkie breeder that lives only 10 minutes away. Found her number and e-mail address on Louisiana Classifieds. E-mailed her, but no response. Called her cell number and got only the voice mail. Left her a message, no response.

I went to the vets where I used to bring Lacey and there was only 1 breeder listed near me. I tried calling her, but could never get through. So, I wrote her a letter and that was over 3 weeks ago. No response. Why don't they respond back at all? If they do not have puppies, they could still respond back telling me that. I don't understand what I am doing wrong.

All I do is stare at Lacey's pictures and cry. It is over 4 months now and I just can't stop. I am not getting any better. As the holidays are approaching, my grief is just getting worse. I just can't get my mind off of having another yorkie puppy. It is all I think about.

so sorry your feeling blue lately... dont worry , everything will be ok.
just think possitive, you will find a baby sooner or later...just keep looking..
when the time is right, bam!!!! it will happen, you will be bringing home a little cutie pie...

Check you mail
 

I'll leave you a number of a breader in your private message that you can try. I belive she is in your area.

Hope it works out for you.

I'm so sorry to read this.If I was alone without my furbaby I would feel the same way.I know you will find the one perfect for you. It can be very frustrating when you cant get any replies. When you least expect it you will find the one for you.

Can I ask why it has to be a female and a puppy? Males are more into your price range. It's very difficult to find a female that low. Adults usually come housebroken. Maybe you could just keep saving your money up. If you did find one at that price, well, you get what you pay for if you know what I mean. I'd love to have a biewer, but it's simply out of my price range so I settled a regular yorkie, and she's great. Sometimes we just have to live within our means, that's all.

I saw someone on another threat post about some males. I think you should go down there and at least check them out and see how much you like them. I know you miss your old dog, but you can never really replace her. I think it's best to try something a little different, like a male for you. I hope I haven't made you mad, good luck!

Hang in there!
I'm sure there's a furbaby out there,
you just haven't found eachother yet. :)

Have you thought of looking into breeders in another state and have the puppy shipped to you?

I know how you feel I looked for one in my area for 2 years bc I didnt want to get one from another state without seeing it first. Too many scammers out there. But 2 years later I finally found one here in my home town. Just keep looking things happen for a reason maybe these people dont reply back bc they dont have the right puppy for you. Just keep looking and you will find your perfect little furbaby.

Have you thought about adopting one from the websites that rescue dogs? Just a thought. :)

you will find your baby!
 

Have you seen this one? http://www.yorkies.nu/? I know nothing about it but did a search and i found that.

Hang in there . Im sure you will find that perfect puppy soon.

My mom won't even consider having the puppies shipped. She wants to see them first. And she won't even drive an hour out of town to go look at one. There are plenty in the classifieds in the Lafayette area. I live only a 2-hour drive from Lafayette. Yet, every time I mention it, she won't drive there. We both only drive around our local area. The lady that lives only 10 minutes away just called back. Her yorkie is due around Christmas, but is selling the females for $900. My mom does not want a male. She is so stubborn that I can't change her mind. And she said she won't go over her limit of $650 no matter what. I keep telling her she is never going to find a female for any less than $900. Nobody is going to lower the price. They are expensive to breed and they need to make some kind of profit. So, you got to see it from there side as well. I will file my taxes in Jan or Feb, and don't care if I have to spend my whole income tax check on a yorkie. As soon as I find a better paying job, I will move out because I know I am getting too old to still be living at home. But, the one thing that will crush me is that almost all apartments won't allow pets.

I've got an appointment in a few minutes, but I'll send you a pm later tonight. OK? :)

I might have a small glimmer of hope again. Just got off this phone with this lady. She said a man that lives in the next town over from us has a yorkie. And she is due the second week of December. And he is selling them for only $500! I don't know if one will be a female though. So, I am going to try to get my mom to call him. The lady said that he is really nice man. He is an older gentleman that lives alone because his wife died of cancer 2 years ago. I don't know why he is selling them so cheap though. So, don't know if that should be a red flag or what. But, since he lives not far from us, my mom and I can drive out there and meet the parents. And we can see the pups when they are born. We are only looking for a family pet, not to breed. So, papers are not that important.

I know how you feel. I went thru the same thing before I got Ceeby. For several months I had looked, been on here lurking, talked to breeders. had pups promised, called paper ads. looked on the internet. Nothing. Then one day, out of the blue, there was an ad in a paper from a town about an hour or so away from me. I called the number and the breeder had two tiny males left and best part, she only lived twenty minutes from me!!!!!!!!! I went right then and picked out the one I wanted. It happened when it was time for it to happen but I had almost given up. I have been searching for a girl for him to play with now for a month or so. he gets so lonely and I have to play with him all the time. Thought I had one that was five months old and the seller backed out. Thought my friend's bitch was bred, it was not and didn't even come into heat. Now I do have a female coming from Ceeby's breeder if there are any females in her litter due in December. With my luck, that will fall thru to. But I will keep on searching and you must to. it will happen.

I got great news! Even though, it way too premature for me to get so excited! My mom just got called this man that only lives about 30 minutes away. His yorkie is due November 22nd! 5 puppies are on the way! My mom said he is a cajun elderly man. She said he was really sweet! He is selling his puppies for only $500! They are registered with the kennel club with papers. He said we can go down there when the pups are born and take a look. My mom said the only thing is that he already got a stack of phone numbers ahead of us. So, that is the only thing I am worried about. Maybe it will be first come first served? My mom said she will give him a call around the 22nd to see if the pups have been born. And we will go there right away. I am just praying I can get the puppy! I don't want anything for Christmas beside my yorkie pup. I know the pups won't be ready to go home for Christmas yet, but I will still consider it my gift. I think I will just say a prayer about it every night. Maybe my late Yorkie Lacey is looking at me from Rainbow Bridge and does not want me to be lonely anymore.

I’m sorry you were feeling so bad. I know it’s hard, but try to be patient, and I promise you will find the most perfect, cute puppy meant just for you. Hopefully Cajun guy will come through. :) Keep us posted.

Oh, my! I'm certain that Lacey wouldn't want you to ever be lonely. I'm sure she was too much of an angel to want it any other way. Lacey wouldn't want you to continue crying for her, either. At least you have a little hope right now. I really do hope it works out for you. I think that would be a wonderful Christmas gift. Perhaps you could drop by the gentleman's house just so he could meet you before then and you could show him some pictures of your special little Lacey and he could see that you would take good care of any of his little puppies. :)

I am so sad to hear your story, how very sad for you. I went through a similar time last year, and it was absolutely horrible! I could think of nothing else and there were times that I thought I would just kill myself if I had to live another day without my baby. It was a hellish 8 months and would fill a book to tell you all that happened, but surfice it to say that a cruel fate befell me no matter where I turned for comfort and relief! If you only lived closer my Breeder friend is having a litter next week. Her little Gerbil is just 7 days away and she invited me over to see the birth! I am ver excited!

Just hang in there, though I know only to well how hard it is. Even though I have Dennis, my heart still breaks for my little Raisin. I lost her a year ago October 6th and I still can’t look at her picture, though I buried her with all the hard copies knowing that I can’t bear to see her little face and not be able to hold her again.

I know you are heartbroken and my heart hurts for you, and I know some people can be so terribly heartless and irresponsible but you have to let it run off your back and stay in the game and don’t loose sight of the target! Keep looking, start praying, follow every ad, and search every paper and keep reading here because someone might know someone in your area.

I will pray that you find your little one soon.

With Love,
Sue

Well I guess I should have read further, because that is great news. However don't quit looking because that is how I now have a wonderful breeder friend. I waited for her pups to be born and she lost my little girl, then lost the whole next litter! It was such a heart break. We had named her hope, bless her little soul. The only bright spot is that I met a great friend whom I have come to love very much.

Good luck and I will pray that it all works out.

Sue

well...there are places on the internet you can go to...or you can find somewhere not in your state...like Texas and drive to get one.
