I found this breeder on puppydogweb.com and she has a website and I also spoke with her on the phone. I can not find anything like these puppies in my area, trust me, I have looked hard and long! I live in Maine and I can not afford to drive or fly to Texas. I am pretty sure she wouldn't pull anything on me like that, at least I hope not...

Why heck yeah thats a good price compared to the rest of her Yorkies! JESUS they are expensive! But seriously I'd get him if I had that kind of money to pay for him. He is cute and will be tiny. He's what I'll be looking for when I save up for awhile. lol I want one that will be no more than 4lbs and probably a boy. Her website looks awesome and her puppies and adult dogs look great. Just be careful on how you do the money transaction. Read about Fraudery and stuff before you buy. I'm sure everything will be fine but better safe than sorry. Never pay with Western Union. It says to try to pay with paypal. Goodluck girl!

I'm sorry to hear that you were scammed. I was almost scammed myself but got smarter about it and looked up Fraudery and all the signs were there so I decided not to do it. Thank God! I'm glad that you got smarter about it though. I also wanted to add that I went and looked at the site again and I saw that somone said that they could just be pictures and not actually the puppies but if you look at the objects in the pics you can see some of the same objects in some of the pics. Like the ABC blanket. Its in several pics with the dogs. If these pics were copied and pasted just to make her website and sale dogs that don't exist then I don't think you'd see the same objects in those pics. I think this time everything will be fine.

P.S. Please let me
know how everything
turns out.

Yes I do have pics of the pup and the dad, she pointed them out to me on her website. I just wasn't able to put those pictures on here for some reason.

scrapindee · 03-28-2007, 02:56 PM

Did the breeder give you references? Other people that have bought puppies that you can talk to??

I woneder why her prices are so high on her other dogs. My pup is only $1200. I know she doesn't sell to breeders, she only sells to homes for pets, I don't know why her prices would be so high. Mabey some of them are rare.

if your having a good experience so far and they have a good health guarantee and you can go pick the puppy up then i say go for it

JiggityJig · 03-28-2007, 09:17 PM

I personally wouldn't buy from this site. I just don't get a good feeling from it.

RowdysMom · 03-28-2007, 09:32 PM

Where is she located? There are lots of YT members in Texas - maybe someone could go and check out the place. Just a thought.
