breeder debbie deramo in Mass
 

Has anyone heard of a Debbie Deramo a breeder in Mass?

Does she have a website?
What does her contract look like?
I always recommend visiting the breeders home....

She does not have a website. She has puppies advertised on ebay classified pets. her contract says akc papers will be sent or money back. Standard paperwork list breed, date whelped, color, sire and dam and amount paid.

Can you post her website?

So no health guarantee?

The health guarantee is scratched out by her. She said she has been breeding for 26 years

I would be really careful about buying a puppy sold on ebay. A breeder with a good reputation for breeding happy healthy puppies usually has a waiting list of people who want puppies from them. They don't have to sell on places like ebay or the classified ads.

Don't take any chances, advertising a puppy on ebay is a HUGE NO NO by reputable breeders.

Its actually kiiji classified ads. How do i know if she is healthy?

Please take some time to read and get information on this site about how to buy from a reputable breeder.

I have never heard of her (not that I know all the breeders in MA).... where in MA is she located?

I would be hesitant, but if you do decide to look into her make sure you do your homework...

Are you looking for another one? I thought you just purchased. 7 week old puppy 2 days ago?

Didn't you buy a 7 week old puppy and post about it not sleeping? There is a lot of information on YT about buying from a reputable breeder. Reputable breeders do not sell 7 week old Yorkshire Terrier puppies. Now you are looking for another?

Did you end up buying the puppy from this women? I am confused....I was going to give you some recommendations of some breeders in our area, but I think you already have the puppy?

No truer words....

OMG!!!....7 weeks old??????......stunned and amazed........shock and awe...
well, I guess I could REALLY save a ton of money by dumping all my babies at 7 weeks of age.....actually, I am looking at these 6 week old babies, they are up and playing and cute as can be...maybe I should dump them now......Thinking about it, 10 days old, some have their eyes open....I would imagine as soon as they can get up on their legs, 4 weeks, maybe THAT would be the best time for ME, financially, to kick these little "pots of gold" to the curb....momma will get over it and stop searching for those babies....momma will quit coming to me for help finding where the babies have gone......unsuspecting people will fall in love with how adorable they are at that age, if they get sick or die, that will be THEIR problem not mine...wont cost me a dime!!! Well, sounding like a very profitable idea for me....except for ONE TINY HITCH......I adore these babies! I dreamed what they would look like, when I studied the pedigrees of both momma and dad, and then I got the chosen pair in tip top shape nutritionally, and they were bred, with a great expectation of what MY little dreams would look like and be! And now they are here! And I want the very best I can possibly give them...that means they will stay with me until they are ready to go to their new homes, to owners that have been closely scrutinized and approved, not just the first person that opens up their check book. And then there is momma....she will have done HER part and loved and nurtured and cared for and taught everything her God given instinct has been programmed into her genetics, to teach her babies. I guess I actually have no little "pots of gold"...actually, they are keeping me poor, they keep me honest, they keep me humble, and they keep me ever diligent to do the very best that can possibly be done for them. That means they go NO PLACE until MY job and MOMMAS job is completed, and that is at the very least 12 weeks of age, or until I say so!

I don't understand what is going on with this person. She posted about how her 7 week old puppy kept crying during the night. Now she is looking for another puppy. I guess that some people just don't care what is best for the puppy they just want what they want when they want it. There are a number of people who feel it is wrong to urge people to buy only from a responsible, informed breeder because there are not enough of them to meet the "demand" for little dogs. It's sad. Then they come here crying when they have problems with these babies.

I've thought about this long, and very hard. That being what happens in the day, that God be thanked we have no puppy mills, no bybers, no pet stores that sell dogs, no USDA licensed "kennels'? How would reputable, dedicated, breeders meet the demand? The answer is they won't and can't! I do not foresee a time that that could happen, unless the "demand" for dogs, comes down a huge huge lot.

And a large part of me wonders, if that would be such a bad thing? Much of me believes it is a huge priviledge to own a well bred purebreed dog. I guess simply put there are no easy answers, as we do want as a society the right to own a dog, and as dog lovers ourselves would encourage would be good potential dog owners to own a dog. For we do so well know, how dogs enrich our lives. That our life would be poorer without our companion.

Just some thoughts on a summer Sunday

That is what I was thinking exactly. This current rage to get small dogs is not a good thing. As I said many of these people have never owned a dog in their lives but because some famous person looks so cute with their dog in their purse or the lady down the street has one these people start demanding one for themselves. I have seen shows on Animal Planet encouraging people who live in apartments to get small dogs because they don't take up much room and don't need much exercise!:eek: How insane is that??? So these people go out and get a small dog and we all know the results. They don't know how to house train it, they don't know why the puppy is crying and peeing in the "magic" crate that was supposed to solve all problems. And that is just the start. That cute fluffy little puppy ends up living in the bathroom or a crate until it gets passed to someone else or finally ends up in the pound. I know there are some success stories but they are fewer than the failures. A person who will wait and do the right thing to research and choose to go through the proper channels to get a puppy is more likely to take the time to learn how to care for a puppy and decide if it is really right for them.
Of course that would be in a perfect doggy world.:rolleyes:

I read the thread you started about a 7 week old puppy you got that isn't sleeping at night. You mentioned that you have two other yorkies as well? Why another and 7 weeks was way too young for a puppy to leave a breeder.
