definitely, the Stud.... he needs a sweet and loving home! the pups are precious but he needs you more than they do.

Zapaco gets my vote! Just be careful with puppyfind. They are notorious for scams.

txshopper73 · 03-20-2006, 12:54 PM

Some of these sellers actually steal pictures from other websites, pose them as their own and it all involves missionary work, Africa or Nigeria and Western Union. if this is the case, RUN, NOT WALK for the hills!

Thanks for the info and i guess that i won't use puppy find at all. These 3 babies were off puppy find and after reading these 3 threads i am so dissapointed. I did so want Zapaco but i am not going to risk being broken hearted not getting him. I guess i will have to find a breeder locally to buy a baby from. Thanks guys for your votes but most importantly thanks TXSHOPPER for filling me in on these scams. Wow i am bummed!!! If you know any reputable Shih-tzu breeders please pass them along to me.

Thanks
Melinda and Sassy Little

I like Zapaco him or her looks like a little bundle of joy to add to the family. Well I hope this helps take care. Let me know who you chose...

Yes I agree 100% I got my little one from puppyfind.com but I had to search for weeks and weeks for a breeder that I was comfortable with. I had alot of the ones that are mentioned below emailing me but when it came down to the time of talking about getting the dog they always asked me to western union them the money due to them being on a missionary work and the puppy was with them. I was like oh noooooooooo runnnnn.... Scammers... I got my little one from a breeder named shawn and she is on puppy find she's located in waskom texas. She is very nice may I add and anything you ask she will let you know.

yorky4ME · 03-20-2006, 03:37 PM

I agree.

They have a serious scamming problem on Puppyfind..it looks like half the Yorkie ads are scams..they always saw "free shipping, champion sired, and the price is very low. What ashame for a sincere breeder who uses it.

YorkieRose · 03-20-2006, 04:09 PM

I went to Puppyfind and read the ad for the retired stud. It does not sound like a scam, BUT who can you trust?
This breeder says they are no longer going to be a hobby breeder and are becoming show breeders..they want the best for this retired stud, perfer a pet home, but stress he has sired many nice litters...so if he has produced alot of very nice pups for them and they want the best for him, I say neuter him, find the best home possible, even if it means giving him away.
This may sound very judgemental, but when a breeder wants only the best for their dogs, they do not sell them intact..he will be bought buy a breeder, maybe he will be cared for, maybe not.

teffiemoore · 03-20-2006, 04:31 PM

Why is this little stud retired? He is beautiful!

sashajade · 03-20-2006, 04:36 PM

id say go for the older dog as the puppys will find homes a lot easyer,also if the breeder is willing for you to take the dog for free you wont lose any money.
