Need Advice.. Craigslist Yorkie

[TxVicki]

I just pray that this baby will be OK, and go to home that will love her and help her.

I am sorry she would not go down much lower in price, if she is that hard up for money the poor thing has probably not had much vet care. As much as most of us would like to take in every yorkie or dog in that we did not think was being treated right that's just impossible to do. If you are looking for a slightly older dog then perhaps in time if you put a lot of feelers out through YT you will find just the right one.

I am not sure how you left it with the gal, but make sure she knows to contact you or at least a yorkie rescue group if she does not find someone willing to pay that price.

perhaps if a bunch of inquires and phone calls from Yorkie Talkers posing as buyers were to tell her she was asking to much, she would realize that and give her to a rescue group or lower her price by a lot.

She emailed me this morning and said she would go to $385. I think that is a great idea. If anyone will email, I will give her email address. I can't get her off my mind, but I just feel like thats a huge investment for a dog that needs immediate vet care.

Ahhhhhh.... Go get that baby! She would be so much better off with you! I will pray that you are given the peace to make the right decision no matter what it is! Good luck and keep us posted!

Keep us updated if someone can help this baby. I already have 4 or I would bring more babies to my house. Prayers for this dog,

Meanwhile the poor little dog is sitting in the same sad situation. If she brings her price down lower your gonna get some low life picking her up cheap and treating her cheap. Then the puppy's will have the same problem . Sad

It's not about the money. I just am not sure if we can handle a dog who could potentially have issues. If I knew without a doubt what she was bred with, I would have her. But, the not knowing anything about her life besides the 2 weeks this lady has had her scares me. My husband and I are going to think about it and decide ASAP. I just wish I could get her off my mind. My heart is breaking, but i worry!

Ok I'm just throwing this out here. It doesn't represent me saying to do this or even that I would. However, haven't dogs like this been taken to the vet to get a spay therefore taking care of it? My concern is without knowing what she was bred with could lead to issues with her safety. Again, not saying to do it at all. Just thought I heard it mentioned before. I know it sounds terrible and cruel.

I believe I had heard of that. My husband has suggested that maybe we see if we can get her and take her straight to our vet and have him do a full workup over her. It does sound cruel, but it may be an option to save this sweet girl. I'll do some research.

I look at my girls and think I would do it to save their life. I would discuss with my vet and see what all the options are. Good luck with your decision.
