Hello all, newbie here. McheleM, I am so sorry for all you have gone through with your puppy crisis and I'm glad everything has worked out. I couldn't read the whole thread because rainbows was making my southern show. I'm still struggling with biting my, well my finger I guess. Anywho...Hello all, congrats on the pups, and I love the puppy name.

A responsible breeder does not turn around for 5 seconds and allow an 'accidental' pregnancy. When I got my girl, well I knew before I even bought her she was going to be spayed. What right do I have to breed my yorkie? she isn't a show champion, she isnt up to the perfect breed standards since she's a runt, I didn't get to see her father so don't know a whole deal about his lineage, I would never do it...It just isn't my right to. Now you can do the right thing and health test and gene test those puppies and get them started out on the right path before they go to good homes as you brought them into this world that is your responsibility. You have to ask yourself, what your reasons for breeding her were and if it was worth it.

I really feel the same way you do. It's a shame this happened to the wee dog. I'm glad your going to take steps to ensure it doesn't happen again.
Although I'd love to live in a house full of Yorkies and puppies I'd never breed. I became friends with my breeder before getting a dog from her and she told me all she goes through and the risks involved.

Glad to hear things are going so well after the rough start. Congrats on keeping the little girl. My Brody has an undocked tail and I just love it. I am assuming you will post some pix of the babies and mommy...looking forward to seeing them.

MauiGirl · 12-31-2013, 10:04 AM

Love that you are keeping a little girl, and keeping full tail. It will be exciting to see her grown up on Yorkie Talk.

Why would I not take care of them?? If I wasn't going to take care of them, I would have just had her spayed and aborted them. I however don't believe in abortion.
Everyones entitled to their opinion, and I understand there are a lot of people who feel the same way you and the rainbow person feel. It's not how she feels that was the problem. It was her attitude and the way she came across as "holier than thou" , as if she's never made a mistake. I know that there are a lot of people here who disagree with breeding except by professional and experienced breeders. It's sad when breeders feel they can't post about their litters because of the fallout and opinions of others on this site, and a lot of the breeders, who can help and give information are being run off.

Not that it changes anything but even breeders listed on the AKC site aren't always on the up and up-that's actually where I found the breeder where I got Allie and Noah from! On the surface, she appeared to be a good breeder, and then I found this site and all these red flags popped up, starting with her letting a 7 week old puppy go. After Noah got parvo, she became unreachable, even though she swore I had a "breeder" for life and could come to her with anything. I didn't know 3 years ago what I know now, and would never buy from a breeder like that again. I got Westley from a reputable breeder right here on yorkietalk, although she doesn't post much.

And for the record, Allie has been spayed.

Excuse me for sounding dumb, but who are the boys? I mistakenly thought all were girls from your "4 princesses" thread..... and the unique names.

I am so happy that Allie and pups are doing well after the scarey start. Happy New Year to you and hope it is a good one for all.

There's no boys, just a girl puppy with a boy name.
