Be responsible and go with your heart but use your head

Hmmm, I think you Quoted the wrong person

I viewed the Health Guarantee on the site provided

It states that it gives only a 1 yr guarantee on congenital defects, Chiari is often NOT found until later in the dogs life. The majority of pups are diagnosed between 2 & 6 yrs old with the biggest percent between 2 & 3 yrs old. My Sassy was not diagnosed till 6 yrs old & Chiari is BOTH Congenital AND Hereditary.

OP, PLEASE DON"T buy from these people. Take your time & research more as you don't want heartache. There are lots of Reputable Breeders who place pet quality pups in good homes for a very reasonable price & sometimes free.

OP . . . I have been a pet lover and been owned for a long time. Dogs, cats, fish, even an iguana. I am a person looking for a pup since before I became a member. I am OCD. I research everything. I had knowledge of puppy mills, Byb and the YTCA. Then I found this group . I read a bunch of threads. I said wow there is a lot of great information here. I want to become a member. I did. I ask questions. I answer questions. I learn from them.

Everyone does not know everything. That is why we ask questions and learn. I still don't have a puppy. But when I get one, I will have a ton of knowledge in my back pocket. And a huge support system with the stuff I don't know.

Please understand that everyone here wants you to get the best pup you can. And you don't have to spend $2000-$3000 doing it. So please take a step back, take a breath and take everything in. Bottom line you do what you want. But know that we are here for anyone that wants help, show a pic or tell about our day. We are a dorky yorkie family

Samuelsmommie · 10-10-2012, 01:04 PM

I see the OP has also been Banned! I hope she doesn't get the puppy, but think she likely will.

msyorktown · 10-10-2012, 03:59 PM

Wow....just....wow!!! I have no words...just wow.
Just read through this thread and see that AJBoogie and OP have been banned....no words of advice from me...its all been said...'sigh'
OP will probably go ahead and get the pup...

Sometimes just reading threads and seeing people banned is confusing.

You have to have violated YT rules to get banned.

Not implying as I don't know but sometime private message content, and ip address concerns result in bans.

For the sake of later readers....pup mills and brokers often use off site locations to meet potential buyers at...even their homes.

So if you see 48 puppies listed born within 9 weeks and when you show up and parents aren't on site or there's only a few of the site listed dogs/puppies there...it's quite safe to assume you aren't seeing the whole picture...for whatever reason.

Right on!!!

I guess common sense isn't common enough.

I haven't read to the end but OP, honestly, no one here posts to try and keep you from having the best Yorkie baby you can find. The thing is, with this many people having seen and experienced so much both good and bad, everyone comes quickly to try and help you make an informed decision. When I first signed up, I had a deposit on a beautiful girl, Foxxy Cleopatra. I came here to learn to be the best mom I could be to her but she died before I ever got her home. I got her brother, someone took him from me. When no one else in life understands the love of your Yorkie, YT does.
I know it may seem like everyone is trying to talk you out of an affordable new baby but I can promise you that's not the case. They...we are just passionate about everyone having a healthy, happy baby that will grow to be what they had hoped. The members here are owned by their Yorkies and are only here to help.
I'm sorry this is so long but just think, everyone could have given you the 'it's so cute' posts then you get the baby home and need tons of money to treat ailments. Also, I learned that when a member warns you about a registry, it's not in the spirit of 'oh my dog is AKC, that dog is not. It's not worthy' what they are saying is people use a registry to put you at ease and make you think oh it's registered so it's all good. I had a woman trying to stud her dog admit that she had him registered with CKC as a Yorkie AND as a silky terrier. He is obviously silky or silky mixed but imagine the puppies from him and unsuspecting person she doesn't tell what she did.
They are only saying buy your breeder. When corners are cut when breeding, you don't know what to expect. Both my Yorkies are CKC and amazing little men but with Maxximus I knew what to look for thanks to reading here.
I'm willing to bet you that if you choose to bring that baby home, every member here will be by your side for any help you need on training, potty training, anything. They aren't judging. Just saying to you that you are in the perfect position to be choosy and find your perfect pup. If this baby warms your heart, he will be yours and everyone here will be aunties because Yorkies they love....bad breeders they do not.
Please reconsider how you feel about the responses. The answers were to look out for you. The members here believe everyone she be owned by a Yorkie. They are so amazing and totally different from other breeds. This forum will stand with you. We all have babies from all types of situations. But you are in a position to choose carefully. We all know that want it now feeling. It took me over a year to find first one and months to find second. Everything will be ok.
Sorry about the novel. I've just been in your predicament. Looking at a Yorkie and thinking well it's not really like I thought it would be but maybe it will grow up to be......probably won't. Follow your heart and I think others will agree that we will be there for you because our love is for Yorkies and want the best for them. Don't feel like its your only chance to have one. The right one finds you. My Maxximus did. I wasn't even looking for one, I was searching for my stolen Yorkie Choppa when I found him.

The members here have seen horrible things being done just to make money off of a puppy so they take breeders very very seriously. When you think about all of the money it takes to properly breed and raise these babies before they go to new homes, you Definately wonder why they want this baby gone so badly they drop his price so much. A trustworthy breeder is in it to give the puppies good homes and care where they go. I would never have known these things if someone hadn't taken the time to care enough to share what they knew.
I wish you so much luck finding the perfect Yorkie. The fact that you even came here shows that you are already preparing to be a great Yorkie mom.

Ok YT. I will shut up now.
