No one would Ever slam you for that - many people DO want tinies...and your post is a good example of why we talk about it so much - they ARE tiny.... even a 5-6 pounder is .... What Jeff Dane is doing is profiting from the belief that tiny means cuter and unfortunately - it also can mean heartache too. His prices are UNREAL....& his selling pitch is just that - a PITCH. I hate to think about what those tiny females go thru having all those babies. |
This is the saddest thing. I couldn't help visiting this site after reading what you guys said. Oh, I wish I hadn't. I can't get those little guys and girls faces out of my mind. It makes me hug my babies just a little bit closer!! Thanks for that. |
Well, welcome to YT...I just hope that the people that can afford these dogs are very careful, I mean I have seen Gerbils larger than that. Oh my, they are fully grown!! |
scrappymomma, I know exactly what you mean...My aunt has a 5.5 lb yorkie, and he just seems sooo tiny! I think of Miko as a little guy and he's 9lbs! LOL |

I can relate to the wanting a tiny one at first also, Sometimes I don't think we realize how tiny even 5 lbs is. Mine range from 4.5 to 8lb and that is plenty small enough. But at first I didn't know any better. How tiny can those internal organs be and still function properly? |
I appreciate that perspective. I admit that if I wasn't aware of the potential health issues, I'd be one thinking, "The tinier, the better". You're right...seven pounds IS a little dog! |
Thanks for not freaking out on me for admitting my original intentions, it is very sad how he is purposely breeding these tiny girls. Did u see the pic where it says looking out my front door, there is a a suburban on the same side as the dogs are, unless he parks his suburban in his house it should say looking inside....lol. Alright Im not gonna go on and on with this topic I just felt like expressing my feelings earlier I hope everyone is having a good day today! |
I just looked at the website. Those poor babies look so sad. ican only imagine how they are kept. |
Kim-Girl!! you crack me up!! :lol tears :lol tears :eyetearss :lol tears :lol tears Quote:

Yorkiepup This guy Jeff Dane is beyond nightmare. I feel so sorry for those dogs he has. This is his website as well http://www.yourpup.com/ and to be avoided at all costs. He used to be in monster trucks but didn't make much money so went into puppymilling instead. He still sells farm equipment as well. There were other message boards that his name came up on, he got wind of it, did all kinds of nutso stuff then shut down the boards by spamming them with farm equipment. DO NOT in any circumstances email this guy criticizing his practices. He is one to be avoided. |

I also personnally know of 4 people in the area who have driven to his place the last few months. They all report the conditions of his place. But even more important. They all purchased a purebred Yorkie for under $500. Yep that's right. You put up your money and he reaches into a kennel cage and hands you a Yorkie! So those HIGH prices on the websites are just a scam...an attempt to separate a fool from his money! |
I am so confused and can't figure out who in their right mind would want a dog that tiny and fragile if you want a pet that small get a rat of guinea(sp) pig i know they are not as cute but come on. |

I have posted in a couple of spots on YT that somehow in May I had a bitch that delivered two healthy normal birth size girls. These girls somehow matured to 2 1/2 lbs and 3 1/4 lbs in size. I have no idea why as in 10 years of breeding I have never produced this small. Sire and dam are both almost 6 lbs so what happened I don't know. I now have one spayed and going to a pet home for free. I gave her to a friend of mine that has two of my dogs. She is aware of what is involved with these little ones. The other one is already in a home with the owner of one of my dogs, the great grandmother to these two. Also I gave that one free to this friend. I do not breed for this, I do not want to sell them to anyone but I will give them to a friend that I approve as a home providing they understand requirements of care for these tinies and are nearby to me so I can give them any help they may need. Both said they would pay for the spaying which is fine, it doesn't matter to me if they do or don't, and for which the one I already have had spayed was less than $200 for the procedure from my local and very good Vet. |
That is Horrible! :( |
