| I could not believe this owner/dog broker makes a reported $20 million a year and has an 8 car garage off of the backs of these poor dogs. Here is the link to the Today Show's story. TODAY Video Player Calls are actually answered by a call center in Florida who tell the potential buyer scripted info, trying to make the buyer think they are buying locally bred dogs. Unbelievable.

| Today Show I saw the story on the news this morning. How horrible! These poor dogs and puppies are sick and being sold and shipped all over the place. The owner with his 20 million dollar income should go to jail for the rest of his life! Has anyone ever heard of Colorsilk Yorkies? Allegedly a reputable breeder in South Jersey for yorkies. |

| That's a puppy brokerage based out of Florida. I live in BC, Canada, and when I was first looking for a puppy I googled "yorkie breeders". This is the top google ad that comes up... Yorkie Puppies for Sale Vancouver - Yorkie breeders It's the same place. I called about one of the puppies, but I thought this was in Vancouver, BC, since it says VANCOUVER YORKIE BREEDERS. During the conversation I learned the puppy would actually come from Alabama, and that apparently the president of the USA bought his puppy from them. They take a credit card payment and ship the puppy. I was horrified by the whole thing, and eventually we got Ozzy from a local breeder. I am positive this is a puppy mill broker and it really makes me sick. I'm so sad for all those puppies and their parents. I've seen video footage from a Cesar Millan special on puppy mills. I hope they all get shut down.
