ACA vs AKC Scooby Pet Salon is selling a Yorkie 10 oz 7wks old but ACA registration. Does anyone know anything about this? |
What I can tell you is, if they are selling a 7 week old puppy they are NOT a Reputable breeder. A Reputable breeder keeps puppies with their momma and litter mates until they are 12 to 13 weeks old. In this time period the momma is teaching her babies many things, like bite inhibition, socialization plus many other things, which make transitioning to new home less stressful on a new puppy. ACA is a puppy mill registry that will register anything, even a kitchen table. AKC registers purebred dogs. When a litter of puppies is born, the breeder sends a form into the AKC to register the litter. If both parents are in the AKC database, the AKC assigns registration numbers and issues the number of puppies that the breeder states are in the litter. |
I just googled Scooby Pet Salon, this is a grooming salon, how are they selling puppies? big RED FLAG, sounds like a BYB (back Yard Breeder) to me. I would stay away from them especially if they are offering you ACA papers, these are worthless papers, they mean nothing. Do not buy because the are selling puppy cheap, what you "think" you are saving may cost you 3 x's the amount in vet bills for a sick puppy. |
Agree completely with Matese. Also, who sells a 7 week old 10oz puppy? Not a reputable person, my breeder wouldn't let my first yorkie go until she weighed 2 lbs. that took 4 mos. I feel for this little pup, smh. |
They don't plan on selling her until 1/20/18. But said that I could put a deposit on her. My question was about ACA. I think you answered it. |
ACA is not a reputable registry and only no reputable breeders and puppy mills use it. You can by easily register mixes with the ACA. The AKC is reputable and not easy to fake. No Yorkie puppy should ever leave their mom until 12 weeks. This absolutely does not sound like a reputable breeder. |

Like I said, what you "think" you are saving in the purchase price, you can end up spending 3 x's the amount in vet bills. This Scooby Pet Salon is just that, a GROOMER, you don't even know if this puppy is a full breed yorkie or a mix, it could look like a yorkie and still be a mix. I know you must want a yorkie very bad, this is not a wise choice to buy a puppy from this place. Please save a lil bit more money and buy your baby from a reputable breeder. You will save yourself a lot of heartbreak in the end. I do hope you make the right decision and not buy this puppy, what ever you do I wish you all the best. |
Thanks I got my deposit back |
