Both of those site look bad to me, and the prices are CRAZY!

I have a friend who was looking at a maltipoo on puppykiss. I guess she called the lady and the lady was a complete B****. My friend said that it was so hard to hear the lady because of all the dogs barking in the background.

I personally dont like the way that they have all kinds of breeds that they are selling. To me it seems like a puppy mill. JMO

Going thru puppyfind is not going to guarantee you a good quality puppy from a good breeder. There are listing on puppyfind that raise red flags. Here's an example of a yorkie I found on puppyfind. http://www.puppyfind.com/view_listin...26page%25253D1
Poor little thing! The breeder does mention that they are a "small" family owned kennel in Oklahoma. When doing a search on Kiamichi Kennel I came up with so many hits , so many locations, so many breeds it does "confuse" me and raise questions.

I was told that one of those sites considers anything under 7lbs to be "teacup" among a few other things I found questionable. It is really a shady area when it comes to brokered puppy sites and all the gimmicks they use to get a sale. At this point for me, if it's not pups from your very own sweethearts then my red flag's going up. That's just how I feel at this point after everything I've seen and heard. I'm sure that there are some reputable brokers out there, just very few I think.

I totally agree with you Luvmypupster. I know Yorkies come in a wide variety but that certainly is very questionable. Poor baby.
