Hmmm, could you explain what thread your referring to?:eek:

You are correct I got three different threads mixed up in my mind. Thanks for the catch.

Although I do believe in the BATs test. I believe current protocol is 16 wks and repeat at 6mths. Not an expensive blood test.

For example...if Minnie's grandfather is Min Pin, Minnie could have taken on traits from her grandfather. Because Minnie looks so far from the Yorkie standard, doesn't necessarily mean that her father is not a Yorkie. It might not be common, but maybe her grandfather just has really strong genes? Is that correct? Or am I totally off here? Sorry of it's a dumb question, but I'm just curious because the breeder says she bred 2 Yorkies. Minnie obviously does not look like the offspring of 2 pure bred Yorkies. Maybe Minnie got her traits from another relative? Hence, the bewilderment of the breeder. Obviously, there was no testing/pedigree research done. So the breeder was probably surprised by Minnie's physical characteristics. I'm curious what the brother, Mickey, looks like.

Oh, I see! Do you recommend a BAT test even if a Yorkie is showing no symptoms, as a means of catching potential liver problems we don't see yet? (Note to self: I will not hijack this thread, I will not hijack this thread... ;)) Okay, I feel better now. So you're recommending that Minnie get a BAT test at 16 weeks and at 6 months?

Of course if there were an out cross to another breed it is highly unlikely that the offspring would produce standard looking Yorkies to begin with. The fact is if this breeder is an "experienced" Yorkie breeder then she knew that little Minnie was not a full Yorkie when she was still very young. Her color may be the same but the rest of her is far from Yorkie. The breeder had to see the differences and should never have sold her as a purebred Yorkie. Even if she really does not understand what happened (which I sincerely doubt) she should have told the new owner that there was a problem with the way the pup was developing and that there was a possibility that the pup would not look like a pure bred Yorkie. Maybe this is not the first time this has happened in her breeding program and has gotten away with treating people this way in the past.

...To the OP, YorkieMommy1984, unfortunately, the "family tree" that you have really means nothing. Anyone can create a family tree in Microsoft Word. ...

So yesterday when I saw the breeder somehow found me on here after 5 months lol. Supposivly looking to see how Minnie was doing. I had blocked her because I don't want to deal with the drama until this the results are in. I just saw today she posted a message this is what I got. What did I hobestly do?? I'm very confused. What are thoughts about this message?? Should I worry ??

Below Is the message from her....


Jen you can tell everyone what ever u want really its okay but you better have you stuff backed up cause if your results come back positive that she is a purebreed yorkie, its my turn to take action and all the negative stuff i have saved about how fake i am how i lie how i created a paper i will not let go!!!!!! And i have fake feelings really i cried more than you!!!! And harrassing me on here is against the law so keep going i have all the harrasments and mean things u have said to innocent people that dont even know me how rude of you why not come to me with this matter!!!!!!

I think you're dealing with a 3rd rate bi^ch. She appears to threaten and harass, in my opinion. You asked a genuine question..ie what we thought of your pup. You have a right to ask. To seek other peoples opinions.

The breeder to threaten to take away the pup if it's pure breed, shows her true colours. Why would she say 'if', as she is so sure it's 100% yorkie, she's threatening action. Why take it away, when she knows it's what you want and PAID for. ...because she's in my opinion, from what we see written by her is being cruel to you for daring to not just listen to her and shut up. How dare you ask other who may have a valid opinion.

Don't let her pull you down. You have a right to ask why your dog doesn't look like a typical Yorkie. You have the right to ask others what they think. You have the right to get YOUR dog tested.
If it isn't all Yorkie, then take her to court, - money for the DNA tests, money for lying to you and stress, money for the yorkie you should have. She's quick to come on here and post her messages to you and members, which I found insulting personally. I hope she stays and either way.
