I think it's really stupid that she tried to kill poor Lexie, too. Once you bring an animal in, they're part of your family. Once we got Pixie, she was our daughter - and my human daughter calls Pixie "sister". And the same with Caddo - he's "brother"... and Preston, too.... That being said, Lexie WAS her child - Lexie was totally dependent on her for the best life possible... and she not only let Lexie down, but tried to KILL her! :mad:
Amen to that! We call our pets children and kids..........why the heck even bother owning one if you can't treat them as such?

She sounds like a real winner...
I can't get over people like that. It sounds like she was tryin to scam $350 off of the breeder. 'Cause if I read that right, it said she could send the pup back if she didn't like her. So there was no need for some costly vet visit.
I hope she doesn't even get a refund. It'd serve her right.

And what kind of shelter only holds a dog one day? o.o
That's just rotten. It's a wonder nobody that worked there got antsy and "liberated" Lexie...aka "sneaking out the back door with Lexie under their coat".

I'm am totally at a loss for words - shocked beyond belief over this story! Kimberly, thank you so very much for taking the time to share this with us and provide a "heads up" to potential sellers in the future to this totally crazy and idiotic person. Andrea, I'm so very sorry you had to go through all the emotional stress with Lexie - and am so very happy she is back in your arms, being loved to pieces:) It takes a special person to be owned by a yorkie and as Kimberly has in her signature, if you don't have the time, get a stuffed dog! I don't even think this person needs a stuffed one!!! Of course, I'd like to tell her where to "stuff" it!!

Gosh, I hate to say this........but maybe sellers need to get tougher on their interviewing. Some people are just darn good liars and it's such a shame.

Maybe a person should have an X# of posts or be somewhat knowlegeable about the breed prior to accepting them as buyers :confused:

Who know, I am just far beyond sicked with this story. Too much scamming on here lately :(

I agree. Unforunately just because someone is on here doesnt make them a good person to sell to. I would be very cautious if I were a breeder

Yeah, and lately I have noticed so many people that come in here just to sell or buy.........I am amazed at how many people respond to the threads offering their pups without even screening the person. It's none of my business, and I am aware of that...........but I will say this with all due respect to every seller............but *some* sellers seem desperate to push their pups right out. I have noticed this from sellers who only post on the for sale threads.........not the regular YTers who frequent the forum not just that section.

Yesterday, I responded to 2 for sale ads that were posted by sellers on their 1st post (kindly suggesting they read the sticky above).........didn't even follow format or nothing (because they are new and haven't bothered to scan the site and look for rules), so they got deleted. Anyhow, I need to stay away from that area and mind my own business - I know ;)

How awful. I'm so glad that that she is back where she belongs.

I could not agree more. I had a YTer contact me about one of my pups and I ended up refusing to sell to her. Just because the state gives you a driver's license doesn't mean you can drive well.

I agreee...if Lexie bit the child maybe they had it coming. I call this a 'personal consequence'. Every action leads to a reaction and if someone doesn't listen the first time then maybe it's time for a little personal consequence so they remember the next time. It's a great learning tool that many parents seem to have forgotten about.

i cannot believe that someone would act like that and want to kill the dog because of money?!?!?! can we say heartless?

furby2000 02-09-2007 10:41 AM
Thank the Lord for this happy ending and that Lexie is back home safe.
Poor baby, what a terrible ordeal she had to suffer.
Some people are just demented. I am glad she is G - O - N - E!
Perhaps she sent herself to get euthenized... :mad:

yorkieusa 02-09-2007 11:02 AM
Ya know what? I cherished Muffin each and every day we had together. To this day I still cherish her memory in my heart. Now, when I look at Kacee I can't believe how blessed I am to have such an adorable little yorkie to love. And that is the only word I can think of...blessed. To see how some of these little dogs are treated by other people is heartbreaking. It really magnifies the love you have for these little angels and makes you appreciate them so much more when you read of things such as this.

Lexie is home and safe! She is with me and that is all that matter to me anymore! We cannot let people scam us! No matter who they are! We must always spread the word if they do this so everyone knows their name and where they are from! Uniting like this makes us stronger and protects the babies! You all saved Lexie and SHE and I will forever thank you!

Ahhhhh.......you can see the happiness in her eyes and yours. I'm so glad she got back home safely, such a relief!:)

Thank you so much for posting that. That picture brought tears to my eyes knowing what all you two have been through the last few days. She looks like she's smiling for the camera - so glad to be home. I'm so glad that she's home, too....

RoxyJosMom 02-09-2007 07:15 PM
Awwww, Lexi looks sooo happy. I'm glad she is back safe and sound and surrounded by love. She deserves that.

scrapindee 02-09-2007 07:30 PM
I am so happy this had a happy ending. Lexi looks wonderful.

Dogs have to be evaluated before they are ready for adoption. They have to make sure that the dog will be good for adoptions, have had vet checks and their spay/neuter surgery. There are thousands of dogs that are euthanized every week...those are not just stray dogs...many are owner release.

Stuff like this makes me really really sad :cry2: and mad :mad: ..I just dont understand how humans due this..How would people like it if someone
turned them over and killed them because they were not wanted anylonger
this is just wrong...But im very happy that Lexis is home now save and happy..

I am sooooo glad Lexie got back home! I was over here in MT wishing i were closer. I'd have driven down and got that baby in a heartbeat. She looks very happy.

We are so glad this mess is over. Erika should be ashamed of herself. :mad:

ButterflyYorkie 02-10-2007 01:18 AM
Wow, it took me alot of reading, and I just want to say I'm really glad Lexie is back home. You just never know sometimes and in this case I'm glad there was a happy ending. I do not know that I could have remained even remotely calm at the mere mention of the word euthanasia in a situation such as this.
It's mind blowing that someone would have even considered that regarding Lexie. Our little 9 yr old yorkie girl Chelsea bit my husband once when he smacked me on the thigh while we were "playing around" and yeah buddy we should have just "turned her over to animal control right then and there!" NOT! I'm sure Lexie was going through alot emotionally anyway with going to a new home, and being with children she didn't know..heck she didn't know what what going on... and it saddens me to hear of folks with no patience or understanding for dogs what so ever. :thumbdown

I'm glad you have her back. My hat goes off to everyone who helped in this. You guys are great.:thumbup:

Hope admin sees this post!!!!!

i'm so glad lexie made it back home and away from that horrid "buyer"! was she in the pensacola humane society? i volunteered there MANY years ago when i was a teen people would just dump those poor animals there like they were nothing even once we had some tiny kittens left on the front door steps in a box and we had no room to keep them we had to put them in the bathroom. i hope lexie will find a great home i would be scared to try and find one though after that crazy person did to her.

What a great picture! You and expecially Lexie look so happy! While a horrible story, at least there is a happy ending. Take care of Lexie!
