My first instinct was to walk out the door however I really wanted to see the pups so we looked and played and I fell in love and we told her that I would call her monday but Guys I really gotta tell you Im not getting him she really hurt my feelings and I know that she is a breeder but she had 24 dogs....

I have laid on the floor with Sugar Bear and told her that I think she is Beautiful and Im sorry that that lady said other wise. And one other thing I had my 3 girls there and we dont swear around our children and I know it terminology to refer to the female as "'Bitch" but come on there were little ones there and my oldest kept lookin at me and I cut the lady off and said honey she is refering to the mommy dogs..Thats what you call a female dog but mommy calls them mommy dog or by there name.

So wish me luck on my journey for my male .....

Some people in this world really blow my mind! It's amazing all the words that are running through my head describing this person. I wish you the best in finding your male.

I am sorry this happened to you but one of the advantages besides pet overpopulation is:

Behavioral advantages of neutering

Decreased Aggression: One of the most important behavioral advantages of castration is that as adults, these dogs will tend to be less aggressive both toward other male dogs and also people. The androgen (male) hormones, of which testosterone is the most important, are responsible for the development of many behavioral patterns. When young puppies are sexually mounting their 7 and 8-week old litter mates this is because of androgen surges in their bodies. The same is true with aggressive behavior. Some medications that have androgenic hormonal activity often cause increased aggression (an example would be the birth control medication, Cheque Drops, which contains one of these androgen-type chemicals). The degree castration has on suppressing aggression varies between animals and the age at which it is done. Its effect is greatest if it is done before one year of age

Well my mom rescued him(Mr.) from a mall pet store they were going to put him to sleep as he was an older dog and the lady called my mom to see if she wanted him and she was like well let me call my daughter and see. I barely had him here with me a few months and him and Bear played very well together despite the height and weight difference then all ofa sudden this....

I am sorry the breeder was so unkind to your little girl. Not all of us are BIS winners..and neither are our Yorkies..but all are very special and deserve respect.

[doggieluver]

Thank You Pat I think Sugar is very pretty and I spoke with another breeder Maybe you have heard of them YorkieRanch and she said Mrs.Armstrong you sound upset so I told her what happened and she said oh thats just not right to say that and very rude I felt so much better. Even if my Sugar doesn't have a FANTASTIC coat she's what I liked and I fell in LOVE in seconds of holding her.

[chattiesmom]

I am sorry that you had this encounter, however please consider yourself blessed. This nasty person isn't worth the time it takes to get upset. Just because this mean-spirited person said ugly things about your little one doesn't mean that they arre true. And from the sounds of it you wouldn't be interested in buying from a person like that anyway. You know, your little fur baby is waiting for you and there calling your name...... LOL hurry up and listen harder!!!

Sugar Bear is a

[amyann]

Mr was a pure bred male Bichon Frise who out weighed Bear by 11#s

I am so sorry about Bear. Bichon Frise was high on my list and I have read many books about them. They are supposed to be very friendly with both people and other dog and very sweet and mellow too. I guess you never know what could happen - all depends on indivial dog I assumed.

[cajungal]

That is so mean! She should of kept her comments to herself. Sugar Bear is beautiful! And she has 24 dogs??? I think that is animal cruelty. Nobody can take care of 24 dogs. I think she should be reported. 24 dogs seems a bit much almost like a puppy mill.

[txshopper73]

She should not have given you an "evaluation" without you asking. What she did is very rude but I'm sure that she didn't realize what she had done. I find it hard to believe that a majority of the population would be rude on purpose.

Find another breeder or get this one...but don't take Sugar Bear back to her house.

[whispersmom2]

First, as for your Bichon--those dogs are so often from mills and are being rescued by the hundreds. But, that does not ease you pain and loss.
As for that idiot person, I guess all of her dogs are show winners and her human kids all are beauty pagent/Mr. World/geniuses who have an idiot for a parent.
Post her name and number and she will quickly learn how to critique a well-loved pet quality Yorkie...Sorry for her ignorance and ill-breeding.. Her manners and respect for others is -0..

[Care28]

I am so sorry that this woman was that rude to you and your yorkiebaby! Your Sugar is just adorable.

BTW, your Oreo looks EXACTLY like our Shih-tzu, Spanky, did when he was little. Brought back such memories to see!

[doggieluver]

Thank you for all the positive comments on Sugar. I started a new Thread with REALLY Great News in it heres the link http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...731#post401731

[reneernc]

Is it possible the comments were made because she thought you wanted to breed the pups? BTW, is that why you are looking for a male in order to start a breeding program?

[doggieluver]

I dont think it was I had told her that I wanted to get him mostly as a pet and maybe have one litter if I feel Sugar would be ok. Other wise I would be setting up an apointment to get him or her fixed.
