| Purebredbreeders So.....we bought our little Marlie of this site and come to find out its probably a puppy mill. Should have researched a little more about this. Problem is that if it's true then I feel bad for supporting that and getting a puppy but am thankful that our little Marlie is our cute little girl. Took her to the vet and he said you got lucky bc this girl is great. Now that's no promises for later but it doesn't matter bc we will love her very much! |

| If you go to PureBredBreeders(dot)com, they offer all kinds of breeds & mixed breeds. It looks like a puppy mill or puppy broker hiding behind the internet.

| I bought my baby online too, but from a breeder that I found over the Internet. I sometimes wonder though because it seems like my puppy was crated more often than not and we're having extra trouble house breaking him because of that - but our vet says he's very healthy so I could have just been over thinking it, lol. Hopefully it wasn't a puppy broker, and if so at least your baby is safe with you now and not living in filth. Those types of places are getting better and better as masquerading as legit breeders, as more information becomes available to us. Glad your baby is healthy!!

| Fits the definition of a broker, I suspect. Very expensive! "Looking for a puppy to buy can prove to be quite a task for many people who want to have a new pet. Connecting with reputable Yorkshire Terrier dog breeders is the first thing that you should do if you really want a pet to be part of your family for many years to come. There are Yorkie puppies for sale in our listings coming from a network of local and national breeders. You can find Yorkie dogs for sale on the pages of our website. " |

Has anyone seen a gold and white yorkie?? http://purebredbreeders.com/breed/yo...errier/346629/ Is this color even a possible throw in a purebred yorkie, or do you think it's a mixed breed? Last edited by theporkieyorkie; 01-14-2014 at 10:33 AM. | |

| Health problems can still pop up, a lot wont pop up until around 2 years old. I hate puppy mills but before I knew better I got Callie from what turned out to be a broker who got there puppies from an Amish puppy mill. I was upset and cried thinking about what her parents must be going through or did go through but I would never change Callie for anything she is my life. She does have several health problems but it could always be worse. That is why now I like to speak out and inform as many people as possible about puppy mills and back yard breeders.
