| I’ve never heard of that breeder, and I couldn’t even find them using a google search. Having a website isn’t critical for a breeder, of course, but a website can answer some basic questions such as: Does the breeder advertise more than one breed of pup or mixed breed pups? (big red flag) Does the breeder advertise “teacup” puppies? (another big red flag) Are the breeder’s dogs AKC registered, and does the breeder only breed dogs who are excellent specimens of the breed and of appropriate age and size for safe breeding? Are the breeding dogs health tested? Are they overbred? |

| I didn't read the entire website, I do see they microchip their puppies, give a health guarantee, vaccinated and AKC registered, all good things. Then went into "About us" and read Teacups weight between 3 and 4 pounds, Tiny teacups weight between 2 to 3 pounds when they are full grown. Standard yorkies with weights above 4 pounds All RED flags. A reputable breeder would not use the words or breed for "teacup or tiny teacup". Standard yorkie size is not to exceed 7 Lbs. To deliberately breed for smaller dogs 2 to 3 Lbs as adults is not a reputable breeder. I would do a l lot of research on this breeder before purchasing a puppy from them. Just my opinion.

| It seems kind of scamy to me. Good yorkie breeders don't use the word teacup or ship their puppies they will pay someone to fly the puppy in the cabin. There is also I think of to low of a price as a red flag. A $500 AKC yorkie is unheard of so something is extremely off about that. I would not buy from them. They are either a scam or a puppy mill.

| After seeing lovetodream post, selling puppies for $500. I had to read the entire website. In my opinion this s a scam. This is not 1980 where at that time Yorkie puppies were being sold in pet shops for $600. and over. Also just for your own information, they are showing a photo of a "Biewer(parti) Yorkie" . A Biewer is a breed of it's own, recognized by the AKC. A parti Yorkie is a tri color yorkie. I would not deal with this so called breeder SCAM

| In addition to the problems that Joan and Taylor pointed out, I noticed that — plastered on every page of the website — is the promise of free shipping if you order quickly enough. I seriously doubt, if you pay this person $500, you will ever see a puppy or your $500 back. There are a few other “odd” things on the website. Selling supposedly tiny “teacup” puppies at nine weeks ... and already potty trained. The photos of the pups are all in different settings ... like they could have been borrowed from the internet. Nothing on the website about the (supposedly AKC registered) parent dogs. Nothing on the website identifying the breeder or the location. (Google places the phone number in Arkansas, but I can’t connect it to any listed yorkie breeder there.) It doesn’t look legitimate to me. |

| Vision Yorkies Well thank you all for your trusted opinions. I do agree this site supposedly selling little yorkies is a scam. I just began my search for a new furbaby, since my little one passed in October. This site has awesome members! I shall continue my search for my new little one. |
