New Yorkie owner, from a breeder that is questionable. So sad.
 

New Yorkie Owner , breeder is questionable, I feel I rescued the puppies more that anything else. :confused:

Not sure I am doing this all correctly, just wanted to tell a little about my babies.....Got them from a outfit in Texas......jeff dane ring a bell with anyone out there. I am just sick about this, my babies are very sick with kennel cough, Coccidia, and no telling what else. I am about to go to the poor house trying to take care of them. I thought I was buying from a person that raised their own babies......little did I know that he is a buyer and seller of who knows what? He is rude and lied to me when I asked his point blank.......' how many females do you have?" He told me over 1200....now I know how he gets that number, he is a puppy mill buyer and has contacts of other back yard breeders that sell their babies to him , in order for him to jack up prices and lie about his experience and breeding practices. He makes out like "he" breeds all the yorkies ,etc......I was a fool to fall for his tricks......I feel so stupid. My babies are sick and I am out a ton of money for vet bills, but like I said, I truly feel that I did rescue these pups and that makes it all a little easier to handle.
The kennel cough for my tiny baby is really tuff on him, and breaks my heart to hear him go through this. Now ,, I am sure my other 2 yorkies will get it too.. I would not do biz with this outfit, except if a person really wants to rescue precious yorkie babies to give them a good loving home.
Just so sad about all this and had to vent.....thanks for reading.

I am so sorry this happened to you and it is to bad you didn't come here first as many YT'ers are aware of this #@$ person.

Sending hugs to your babies.

Thanks Cindi........yes I wish I had come here first. No doubt about that, I have read so many post and found the best info here. I will love my babies through all their medical problems without a doubt......no matter the cost.
I just wish something could be done with this person that is not telling the truth about anything.

I am so sorry that you have been lied to and had such complications with your babies. I am glad to hear that you are such a loving and giving person and it sounds like you are doing everything you can for them. With that said, these creeps running puppy mills prey on uninformed people imo. I think that I was a victim of "buy from a 'friend' of a breeder". You have come to a great place to learn about what to look for and what to aviod concerning breeders/puppy mills ( as well as a plethura of other fab. information). Once again, just hang in there with your sick little yorkies, I'll keep them in my thougths...

Another one got scammed by jeff dane ,my aunt was gonna get a pup from him she lives in texas but she ened up getting a pup from some one else she said the only reason she didnt is because she didnt didnt like the way he presented himself to hershe said there was somthing about him she didnt like and trust .and after telling her about him from other that had problems with him shes glad she went else wheres.

Thanks to you all for your kind words of comfort. These sweet babies are my life. I lost my first one to diabetes in 1999, have a 7 year old that is fine and such a little big man...this is the only dog breed IMO that I would ever own. I just wish that when we as Yorkie lovers fork over thousands of dollars for our babies, that they would all be healty and thrive.....I will do what ever it takes for that to happen for them.
Again, I am new here and so grateful for your reply's to my post. I think jeff dane, monster trucker, needs to be exposed as much as possible. What a joke , and this time it was on me.

I am so sorry you went through all his lies and his manipulation and finally not getting any support or help from him when you found out you little babies were sick.
It is a good thing I do not live in the U.S. because I would have fallen for his puppy mill as well. When I was first searching online for yorkie puppies his site came up first and the puppies were all so cute and adorable. It was a miracle I eventually found YT and realized what a true breeder is all about.

I just hope now your babies regain their health and more people educate themselves so they can distinguish between a reputable breeder and a backyard crook!!!

Best of luck and welcome to YT :thumbup:

If you type in Jeff Dane on the search button here at YT you will see tons of threads about him... :(

we are not fans....sorry to hear about your babies and welcome to yt! I would caution against recommending others to go 'rescue' any of his pups, it just puts more money in his pocket, so he can continue the misery.

I am sorry you are going through all that but you are an angel for taking care of those sick pups. Jeff Dane makes me absolutley sick. He is the biggest scam artist there is.

I am so sorry that you got duped. Luckily the puppies have a mom who will spend the money to get them better. Cali had kennel cough for over 3 months after I got her as well as coccidia and has not been very healthy but she was not from that guy. Hopefully the will thrive under your love and care and give you many years of joy!

Anyone who goes from Monster Trucks to breeding dogs should be suspect. In Jeff Dane's own words, "Money motivates!"

He is also a bit of nutcase...

I want to cry for your little babies. I am so glad a good person rescued them!!!! I hope they are alright. Sorry to the little babies!

Omg...
 

His site is something awful!!!!!!!! I cannot believe the little teeny dogs that he is selling for TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS????

Can you say CROOK? :eek:

I am so sorry you are in this situation with your babies. I hope everything turns out ok and they become very healthy soon.

My heart just about stops everytime I hear negative news about this Jeff Dane guy. It really is disturbing how many people have had such bad dealings with this guy, ugh!


Lots of hugs sent to your babies!!!
