| Breeder WON'T show me pictures of the PARENTS?? Ok I ran across a beautiful little girl yorkie!! Even though we are not planning on getting a girl yorkie for a while now I JUST HAD TO INQUIRE......I contacted the breeder and ask to send me pictures of the parents and she simple wrote me back and I quote, "Hi, Sorry, I do not take pictures of the parents. Thank You" WTH??? So then I emailed her back and asked what was her reasoning for not doing so and are the parents on site? So I am waiting for her to response......something is not right with that picture??

| Doesn't sound to me like she wants to sell it too bad. Why wouldn't she have pictures of the parents availabvle? You're right something seems fishy. |

| when things go wrong from the get go, stear clear. To bad though I just ran across a little male that will be about 3.5lbs the breeder said she is getting rid of him because he's to small for show or breeding. The pics of the parents-mom 4.5 dad 3lbs They need to plan their stories out a little better. |

| Yea maybe so she is asking 1500 and maybe the little girl is only worth 1000 because its not a full yorkie but I don't know......OR maybe she bought the yorkie from somewhere else and she is pretending that she bred her

| Somethings not right if they wont show you the parents. Probably a broker and doesnt even have a clue about what the parents look like. Dont even waste your time............ |

| That is alot of money to ask for a yorkie and not show you pictures of the parents. I think she is a broker too

| sounds a little weird. When someone isn't forthcoming with information and expects you, the consumer to fill in blanks, that's my signal to go elsewhere. |

| Something sounds wrong. My first instinct, like others mentioned, was that she is a broker.

The girl is cheaper? now thats odd lol. In the end tho, if u think she is a cutie, and want her....i say why not. i purchased mickey without seeing his parents ...the girl purchased him a week before landlord found out and said she would have to move or get rid of him. (though i did call the breader to verify the story, and she was upset the girl was selling him) He looked yorkie to me, and is soooo cute...i was sold..love at first site lol.

| Approx. 3 yrs. ago I wanted a new puppy. I wanted a small one, really didn't matter what kind. I just like and prefer little dogs. So week after week I would get the Sunday paper and call on little pups in the paper. I had already made up my mind that I wanted to see both parents so I could honestly assess their adult wt. You wouldn't believe the stories I would get. "oh I am selling them for a friend that lives way out in the country, thus no parents". "I already sold the parents I only have the pups left", "I only have the Mom as the dad belongs to so and so who lives a million miles away". And the excuses went on and on. In the end I went with a little Chi mix. Got to see both parents so I knew she would stay small. She is about 5-6 lbs. |
