2,000 bucks!!??......you got rooked!!! Amazing Yorkies is right. You could have gone to. Show breeder that tests for health and come out LOADS cheaper. You shouldn't have paid more than 200.00-300.00 dollars for your pup. Lastly, a beautiful dog is beautiful. Whether its as big as a collie or a 4 pound yorkie or "Chi". I've seen some awfully pathetic looking 2-3 pound yorkies. I hope your 2,000 dollar yorkie turns out beautiful and HEALTHY......GOOD LUCK to ya!! PS....I'm praying for that poor, helpless little pup of yours. That it turns out small and healthy so that it will be loved........even if it is a superficial kind of love. OHH..I guess it better turn out to be a real beauty too!! |
OHhh...and often, genetic illnesses don't often show until the dog is 6 years old. So, "Amazing Yorkies" gives a much better guarantee than most....most give a year or two. A lifetime guarantee is better but, I think, much harder to find. |

I sooo agree with this statement! I have had Foxy since she was 5, she is now 7...and she is always stuck to me like glue..If I go outside for even a minute she starts barking hysterically before I get back.. |

:thumbup::thumbup: Absolutely! Sometimes you get the dog because of how well they bonded when they were not even your dog. :p That's how we got our Collie when I was 7. He belonged to a neighbor, but bonded with us, as an adult, so strongly that when we moved, he refused to eat, drink or socialize with his family or anyone else. He just lay on his front porch, gazing at the house we used to live in. His owner found us and asked us if he could come and live with us...they feared he would die of his broken heart. We had Tim for a number of years...not sure how many 'cuz I was a kid...before his age caught up with him and he passed. He was one of the best dogs I have ever known, and no stronger bond could a dog have with a family than what Tim had with us. I got Brody when he was 14 months old and 3 months later, got Mia when both she and Brody were 17 months old. Both are very tightly bonded to each other and with us, but velcro should stick like Mia does to me...:p:D |
Yup! My current foster Dakota is maybe 6+ yrs old. I've had her for a total of three days. She follows me around like crazy, and when she doesnt' see me for a couple hours and I come back she's all tail waggy and super happy. It's only been three days! :) |
I have nothing to add to the wonderful advice given here. I so hope you stick around and learn more about this wonderful breed we call the 'yorkie' Welcome to YT!! |
Actually i feel like bentlysmommy was being attacked because of something she wanted...yet no one answered her comment of how dogs come from wolves and humans bred them down and domesticated them...She never said anything bad about AKC she just said who are they to determine size of a dog they arent God! nothing about her wanting to show her dog... and in her early response she said although her puppy is healthy she wanted a teacup and all everyone said was take your dog to the vet if her puppy was not healthy im sure she wouldnt have time to write on this thread about his size...so next time people answer the question and don't put in ur own input that she has not asked for and it seems like you all are discriminating against teacups or in ur words teenies which doesnt matter if you refer to them as tiny or a teacup...sometimes people take things to far...and what would a reputable breeder do if she got a so called teacup throw them away? everyone wants money or fame in this world dont get it twisted otherwise who thought of domesticating a dog? |

The main idea was she paid for a small yorkie, the greedy breeder called it a teacup to get more money for it. Most reputable breeders will have small pups by accident, but they don't label them as teacups. They would be considered the runts. :) Only greedy breeders label pups with teacup. micro, mini, tinys, ect. to get more money for pups than they should. Greedy breeders also don't look into health histories of the parents. That's another can of worms...LOL! :) I covered the high lights for you. There's tons of threads arguing about that term-teacups. :) I've found that here on YT you will get a ton of opinions. Some will be emotional, some on the cognitive side, and some just out there... depending on the moon phase...LOL! Always remember you get answers from people who care about yorkies. Take what you can use, ask if you don't understand, and always PM if you need more clarification about any questions. |

Ahhhh nothing like rehashing an old thread...strange....Yes there are tons of threads about this....and the reasons we don't use those terms...its kind of the same thing with any stereotype, but if a certain term causes detriment, its best to stay clear....if all breeders bred for the T Word...there would be more sick pups than healthy and the breed as it was meant to be....extinct. |
nothing against anything just dont like to see a person attacked :) and no problem bentlysmommie pm me if you would like to vent ;) |

My pup is 6 months and is 3.15 lbs. he probably wont be much more than 4. They told me he was teacup, but i didn't care about that. Jut wanted a healthy pooch! He is healthy and i try to fatten him up so he isn't so tiny. My vet says he is perfect! |
