She is not needed to keep up with the demand. She is breeding to make money. IMHO she is selling and for ridiculous prices because there is a demand for "tiny yorkies" which the breeders who sell them know full well is not really great breeding. I don't know that I even saw a yorkie over 5 pounds on her site....all about tinies. Don't EVEN get me started on that topic. I believe that the OPs puppy was a result of such breeding. (note I said that as my opinion)

I think you are taking things too far by assuming that a single mistake reflects upon the history of the entire operation. As soon as this issue is resolved I am leaving these forums. It frightens me how quick you all are to damn another human being. | |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Animals are living, breathing, sensitive, sentient beings -- and for any breeder to purport they need to "keep up with production" really says it all in terms of what their true focus is, their lack of commitment toward quality, and their lack of concern for their "product". We kill/euthanize 3-4 million animals every single year. There is no deficit in "product".

Here are the facts: - In this calendar year we have reared a total of 22 puppies from eight litters from seven different females. - We had agreements on eight of those puppies whose dams were owned by other parties and their pups were reared by them and the sales went to them. - Technically, Firebrand has sold 14 puppies this year. I will let the community respond to whether or not that is overproduction as I am not an expert in Yorkie breeding. I would like to be informed and not bashed please. | |

Whether or not it's overproduction is so tough to say bc, just for example -- we have some really horrendous BYB (backyard breeders) out there (and this isn't even counting the Puppy Mills) - and many of those said BYBers are considered unethical breeders - so then one could/would say that even producing 1 pup out of that program would be "over production", know what I mean? Whereas some Show/Exhibitor breeders, who breed for the betterment of the breed (or, should be) may produce only 1 litter every year or 2. Some breed a few a year. It really just depends. But the point is that they breed very conspicuously, and breed for a targeted reason in most cases....they don't really breed for the purpose of providing pets only.

Additionally, you have made sweeping negative generalizations about our forum and its members. "you are all quick to damn another human being". I dont see a single post damning a human being. I see posts that could be damning of her business practices, which based on the situation she is currently involved in, is seriously lacking in my opinion. Instead of critiquing our forum and members, take an honest look at your friend. The fact remains, that if she had dealt with this situation promptly and ethically, as a reputable breeder would, she would not be in this position. She is involved in this because of her lack of response, her lack of action. She has failed her clients.

| OP: Maybe I missed it, but how old where the 1st pup you bought from her and the pup that died when you got them? Also, I live in Wisconsin and remember looking at the Firebrand Yorkies website when I was looking for a puppy. As soon as I saw that they breed a female of only 3 lb. 14 oz. I knew right away not to buy from them. |
