That ad is from April of last year 2005. It's old. Because the way her web site looks and all that it says I wouldn't be too alarmed by this ad. Again, this is where "communication" is the key and sooo important. Once a potential buyer likes what he/she sees on a web site then verbal communication I feel is the best ways to begin a relationship between a buyer/breeder. Emails are NOT the key IMO to communicate. You can get sooo much information just by hearing a persons "tone". And it's easier to communicate and have all the questions answered by both.

| I'm not a breeder nor have I ever purchased from a breeder but I have to say her site looks very good to me. Her babies seem well taken care of, they have nice kennels, and they seem very loved. I liked her site and would not hesitate to contact her. good luck to your friend! |

| She had puppies born 12-28-05 http://www.spoiledrottenyorkies.com/Puppies.html I think they are cute! The price of a puppy could really be anywhere out there.800-up It really depends on the Breeder My guess is hers are 2200-2500 maybe more. You would have to call. I really like the health guarantee. I don't know anyone who has one of her pups, but her site looks OK to me. Maybe a Breeder form here would know. Good Luck to your friend.

| If you read her 'be-loved KiKi.' Her first Yorkie that she purchased had liver shunt. Click on KiKi's picture, bottom right. So she's been through this. Her screening process seems to be one that checks out potential buyers. This could mean nothing. I had to give references to a breeder and answer a questionnaire, breeder never checked anything. I ask to speak to a breeder's vet as well as other buyer references. Jessica |

I think this speaks loudly for her! Some homes may be fine for small children, but you just never know....cause likely - a parent isn't going to tell a breeder their child likes to throw pups and carry them by their neck! She has standards and sticks to them unlike some breeders who will do anything for a buck! | |

| In a way, I agree somewhat. My son (4 years old) got a yorkie from Santa. After week one, I called Santa (pretending) and told him that my son wasn't very nice to Jake and he had to give him to Mommy to take care of. Kids just don't understand small dogs sometimes. I do believe that small dogs are very fragile. Jake is still here with us at 3 months of age but is like my dog now. My son was a little rough with him in the beginning. |

| Yes, it is very hard with kids. My son is 6 and is very respectful of Chewy. He has grown up with a dog so he understands. Still, when Chewy gets one of his star wars figurines...God help Chewy! As good as he is I am still on constant watch. So, yes, it does definitely speak volumes of her - especially since she could have gotten her 2 grand out me! |

| I have Jasmine (7 year old Yorkie) that my son doesn't even acknowledge. I thought he would like a Yorkie puppy from Santa (which was really for me considering I'm a YORKIE LOVER). My almost 5 year old son has tested Jake (our yorkie puppy) by all means. I'm actually afraid to give details here!!! |

| Most breeders don't guarantee that. They usually guarantee 1 or 2. three years is decent. Quote:

| I wouldn't be so concerned with the use of the word "teacup". It is used to describe a smaller than average size. She looks like a reputable breeder from what I can tell. |

| That is good that she sticks with her policy, however, not all kids are hellions My son is 16 months and has NEVER hurt Zoe. I guess I just got lucky he grew up knowing my moms SEVEN dogs and that he LOVES them.
