What to do when you find out that your Yorkie is a mix? - Page 4 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

babiedoll · 05-20-2012, 12:17 PM

I had doubts but just ignored the size , the hair is also a clue I have contacted the breeder, if she wasn't sure she should not have sold as such and give papers that means
The papers are false as well, and if I had mated him the new pup parents would look at me

I will TRY to be short and VERY direct here. YOU HAD BETTER BE ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN YOU ARE ON IRREFUTABLE LEGAL GROUNDS HERE, OR YOUR BREEDER CAN SUE YOU, (AND SHOULD DO SO!!) FOR DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER, AT THE VERY LEAST! You had better have irrefutable DNA testing done on not only YOUR dog, but the parents of the dog as they are listed on your registration and pedigree papers....You had better proceed with caution as you will possibly find YOURSELF in a "sticky wicket". Your vet is DEAD WRONG with his stupid, irresponsible statement that the dog "should not weigh any more that the heaviest parent"....This is soooooooo wrong and shows how ignorant your vet is in relationship to genetics!!! THAT ALONE makes me wonder if he even knows what kind of vaccine the dog got....was it REALLY cat vaccine or was he using that to get more money out of you????????? YOU HAD BETTER GET ALL THE PROOF YOU CAN COMPILE THAT PROVES THIS DOG IS A MIXED BREED AND IS NOT OFFSPRING OF THE PARENTS AS THEY ARE LISTED ON HER REGISTRATION PAPERS. For your vet to make such stupid, unfounded accusations, is appalling to me and can get YOU in a ton of legal problems!!!

So are you saying if I bought my dog from a breeder that said it was 100% and the blood work shows it is not I have to know what the parents blood line were .

THIS IS WHY YOU MUST CROSS REFERENCE THE DNA SAMPLE BETWEEN YOUR DOG AND THE PARENTS AS LISTED ON THE REGISTRATION PAPERS!!! I STRONGLY advise you not to go off half cocked and ready to"go after this breeder to teach her a lesson"!!!! YOU may be the one taught a lesson!!! If this breeder is doing unreputable things with her business, I am all for hanging her!! BUT, if your vet is instigating what can quickly turn into a legal confrontation between you and that breeder, you had better be sure you are not going to a gunfight, carrying a stick! I CAN PROMISE YOU, YOU HAVE NOTHING ON THIS WOMAN AS WE SPEAK! AND IF I WAS THE BREEDER, NOT ONLY WOULD YOU BE LEVELED IN MY CROSS HAIRS, SO WOULD THAT VET! I HAVE BEEN THERE, IN JUST THIS SITUATION, DEALING WITH A BUYER AND A VET THAT WERE SPOUTING SUCH A STUPID STATEMENT BASED ON ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!!! AND I CAN PROMISE YOU...... THIS VET WILL NEVER AGAIN MAKE SUCH AN AFOUNDED AND COMPLETELY BASELESS, STUPID REMARK!

I have had several people tell me that they think Maggie is a Silky. They know this for a fact because their mom raised Silkies and Maggie looks exactly like the dogs their mom raised. One man became very rude, loud and obnoxious at the dog park. I walk away from people that don't have a clue what they are saying or trying to start an argument about.

The OP is from DENMARK. I have no understanding or knowledge of the legal situation in Denmark. I also don't know if their National Registry carries/encourages DNA testing.

If she has the registration papers, she can check that the numbers and names match up with the National Registry of Denmark.

I suppose it is possible to request a DNA test on her pup, then the dicey part is this needs to be matched to the DNA profile of the two parents. If that DNA profile is not on record with the Registry; I have no idea if the buyer has any recourse to "compell" the breeder to secure and register the parents DNA.

Awh well hope everything works out for the OP.

Yah, right! You can look at your Yorkie and say, "for a fact" that it isnt a weenie dog, or a collie, or a great dane, or a st. bernard, ....but dont be telling people their Yorkie is NOT a yorkie because you had an aunt that had a friend that had a cousin that had an uncle that raised Silkies and they can "promise you, for a fact" that these "experts" know what you have is not a Yorkie, because that left ear is not as erect as it should be, or that white spot on its chest is not big enough, or tooo big, or ANY OTHER GENERALIZED, STUPID ASSUMPTION"!!! PLEASEEEEEEEE!!! STUFF A SOCK IN IT!

Agreed... I don't know about you but, often times when I'm asked by a stranger; " Do you think my dog is a purebreed xyz?". I demur, I certainly never state anything with certaintude. Particularly I've been asked this question about breeds I don't own or breed. Go figure.

The only breed I would be somewhat willing to "guess" on is the one that I breed (BRT's). And only then if there were at least 3 major clear indicators of some type of "mix".

Love doesn't know breed.

The lady we adopted Bailey from said he was full blooded Yorkie. But I knew better. even though we paid her a small "rehoming" fee and she assured me she paid quite a bit for Bailey, I still have my doubts. But it doesn't matter. Bailey is the greatest dog we've ever had. Both Natalie and I love this little boy (ok so he's 8 pounds). We don't care what he is, just that he is!

Enjoy your child.
