Keep me in your thoughts and prayers.

Tell him to label his pictures, and if he has barb wire up, he can explain that the car is just soooo valuable.

Thanks I think I'm going nuts. You guys are the greatest!

Oh believe me he thinks it is and would have the barb wire if I would allow it.

Ok so maybe not a scammer but possibly a byb. She emailed me a long email sayng she has two females and one male and only lets them have pups for two litters and then has them fixed. SO the one male is the daddy of the female who had the pup and the puppies father also.
She said she takes them to a vet but when I looked it up it was like a free clinic. She said she would have the 6 month shots done and a vet certificate. Said the mom had 4 pups and one got injured by a guest so she is keeping one female and has the male and female to sell. They are reduced from 400 because they are older. SHe said I could see the parents if I would like to but I'mnot going to someones house.
Any more thoughts?

Yes, I had a dog that was the offspring of a father/daughter pairing, and it had a severe genetic illness, that paralyzed it. I'll never forget the look in my vet’s eye when he said to me, "Damn backyard breeders." I'll also never forget the look in my children's eyes when they watched in horror as our little dog bleed out his bottom and dragged himself around and there was nothing we could do about it. This was 30 years ago, now, they could probably help the dog, but of course the cost would also be very high. I personally would rather find a good breeder who breed for health.

I would run from this situation.

I think I would pass on this. It sounds like some out of control breeding going on there. That is too much inbreeding that can result in some bad genetic problems. The poor creatures. What fools some people can be! What an awful thing to do to those dogs. Father to daughter breeding!

Since you have your heart set on another yorkie, I would just be patient and keep looking until you find what you really want. You will be much happier in the end.

I think you do look on petfinder, don't you?

Yes there are two yorkies in ST Augustine but the phone number isn't being answered and I've emailed them three times. Maybe today at the adoption event. Think good thoughts....
