Just saw this thread, Michelle! I have my fingers crossed that you can get this baby and keep him until he finds his forever home. I can't imagine listing a pup for sale at a garage sale.

Let me know if there is anything at all I can do to help.

The girl who answered the phone didn't know even if they still had him. She had to ask. When I started asking questions I heard another lady in the background giving her info. I think she said he was found as a stray.

Oh I know but sophieandziggy and I were talking yesterday and she called the animal shelter about the dog on petfinder and they said he wasn't good with other dogs but on petfinder it says he is. We were talking about that dog not the one in the OP.

I think she thinks we're talking about the dog Michelle is trying to get.

I said, "oh how cute". The grandmother responded, "my daughter and her husband gave them away when he was born...they were the babies first and required too much attention." The second we got out of the elevator ... I looked at my fiance and said, "well that was interesting. We will never ever give Teddy away when we have babies." People need to realize there is an adjustment period for all involved. Naturally it is something new for everyone and it takes time and patience. I grew up with dogs and wouldn't have it any other way. Children love dogs!

Yeah I agree, I think dogs are very adaptable, and while a new puppy isn't a good idea, an older dog would learn to adjust. I'm just wondering if somehow we on Yorkietalk might do more to educate, like a thread about "Things to think about before buying a dog!" I mean if there's a chance in hell, you would think about rehoming a dog because you had a baby, you shouldn't consider getting a dog. I think about some of the members here, and I know that would never enter their minds, so it's never really suggested to newbies who are inquiring about the purchase of a dog, and wondering if a Yorkie is a good match.

The dog on Petfinder isn't the dog for sale in TN.

[SophieandZiggy]

sorry about the confusion!

[jadabug]

She also said she has no vet records but that previous owners told her he was up to date on shots...so she hasn't had him vetted since she bought him a month ago

[SophieandZiggy]

that's funny, she has papers on him but no vet records???

[jadabug]

She just texted me back that he is a big baby and wants to be right on her lap all the time if she would let him...duh he is a yorkie...I texted her back that most yorkies are that way, they love attention and a very attached to their humans. All that poor baby wants is love and attention...I am going to cry...she still hasn't said if she will let me have him though and I offered vet references and told her I was used to yorkies..of course she probably doesn't care about all of that.

[SophieandZiggy]

Was he given to her or did she pay for him?

Michelle, you're such a sweetheart. If there is anything that we can do to help you with this, just let us know.
