Taking the dog back because your child misses her is not the right reason! A dog is an adult's responsibility and if YOU are not the one that wanted her enough to keep her in the first place, then you need to leave her where she is! She's adjusted to her new home and looks to be in a great home with an owner that loves her. Do what is best for this little dog and leave her where she is. You say you have time for her right now since you aren't working, but what happens if you go back to work? What if you don't have time for her again later? Also, there is no way you really love and care for Lola - someone who really loves their dog (most of us here think of our yorkies as our children!) would never put them for sale on puppyfinder or any other one of those crappy selling sites! And we certainly wouldn't be asking $2000 or $3000 for them if we needed to rehome them. Looks to me like you were trying to make quite a bit of money off a dog that was just given to you by your mother.

And your little paragraph about Rachel carrying her dogs around in carriers and it being so cheezy - you honestly should have just kept your mouth shut about that! Have you ever stopped to think that she LOVES having her babies with her all the time and that's why she carries them around with her? You making fun of those of us that take our dogs everywhere with us proves to me even further that you don't love your dog! You think of her as just a dog - your possession... Rachel is not the one that thinks of her as a possession...you do!

Do the right thing and let Lola stay with someone who truly cares about her and wants her! If you want to make money off of something, do it with something non-living. And buy your son stuffed animals from now on so you don't continue to teach him that live animals can be sold to the highest bidder and then contantly rehomed! :mad: :thumbdown :thumbdown :thumbdown

2) I don't carry my dogs everywhere, but I can gurantee I love them just as much as the ones that do carry them everywhere..to each his own, I choose not to take my dogs places(I have a lot of them, and the places I usually go don't allow dogs)
3) a lot of you are young, you don't have kids, you don't know what it's like when you have a small child and you give up a dog..I've been in those shoes, it's very hurtful..Now, as I stated before, up until now, we've all heard ONE side of the story..We don't know personally, either one of these people..someone is definitly not being honest..!

I think the point about carrying dogs everywhere was the original owner made fun of Rachel for doing so and her comments made her look silly and petty. I don't take mine everywhere either but I would never fault someone for wanting to. I have a 13 year old so I am qualified to answer #3. Taking that dog back because her 6 yr. old misses her is absolutely ridiculous.
The 6 yr. old will not and can not take care of that dog. The original owner has already made it clear that she can't either so while it is very sad for the child, it is a result of bad decisions on his mother's part and now she will have to deal with the consequences. The dog and Rachel should not have to suffer because this woman is a wishy washy air head.

Wow...

I'm sorry that your son misses your yorkie, but the dog is your responsibility not his. You are the adult that needs to care for this little dog, which according to what I've heard it doesn't seem you are doing. I would never sell my dog on puppyfind of all places because she was having accidents. You are her owner, YOU should train YOUR dog and you didn't, so then you put Lola up for sale? It doesn't make a lot of sense to sell a dog you love over your inability to train her.

I l-o-v-e my dogs and I take them with me most all places they can go. This doesn't make me silly or foolish or thinking of them as an object -- I take them with me because I care about them, want them to share in experiences, ect.

Your post doesn't even really sound like you want Lola back. It sounds like you just want to bash Rachel, who is trying to give Lola a great home regardless of what damage has been done.

Lola has not been for sale for a 'very very long time'. I listed her last year around this time, for about two months, when I was working about 50 hours a week, and then I listed her again, extremely briefly, last month after she peed on my sofa. And I stated in the previous post that I made a hasty decision about putting her for sale. I've always had a MySpace page for her, and it only said she was for sale last year around this time, for like a month. And yes, last year the price would change daily...sometimes I'd make excuses to people I didn't want her to go to, and other times I was desperate to just find a great home for her. A great home to me involves spoiling her like I do, and being able to cover any cost that comes up....being able to pay a certain amount up front was comfort that someone could truly afford taking care of her. As for her size changing in the listings, first of all I've NEVER said she was two pounds, it's always been two pounds four ounces to three pounds. Again, I'd adjust the listing to what was actual.

You don't have any idea what I can or cannot afford. You have absolutely no idea whom you are speaking about. I can assure you, I can more than provide for Lola's medical care. I'm going to leave you with one tidbit so you shut up about money. My child support alone is $2400 a month, which is $600 a week, more than the average person earns at their job! Not only do I also have a great job, which I'm currently on medical leave, but I also have extensive rental property, and if my mother is buying me a Yorkie for Christmas as ONE of my presents, doesn't that tell you anything about my family's means?!

Please make sure you know what you're talking about before you start spewing crap.:rolleyes:

That part is true. I have not gotten you the AKC papers because I don't have them, which I've told you. When I got Lola, I received the initial papers from the breeder, which you have to mail back in to AKC. I never did it, because I don't care anything about that stuff. When I listed her for sale last year, I called the breeder and I had to have her fill out a new form requesting the new registration papers. The papers were sent back to the breeder, not me, and by that time, I had decided to not let Lola go, and I've never contacted the breeder again to get the new forms. I assume since I paid for it, that she probably still has them. I would have to get them from her, fill them out, and mail them back to AKC. I told you I was willing to do that!

I'm not posting anymore, this is your place, and I only intended to make my first post, but I get so angry at all the things that are untrue that you have written. Clearly these people like you quite a bit, like I did in the beginning, when I only knew you online.

Like I've said before, you know I've been honest with you, and you know what's right, and you're the one that has to deal with the karma you incur.

If you want to take it as far as court, I'm more than willing. At this point, after all you've written, you could be responsible for more than the dog. After all this bulls**t, I'll even give you the extra money you asked for, for your expensives, and I'll make the drive back to Cincinnati to get her, just give me my dog back! As you have learned, I'm a VERY smart girl, and I'm sure you don't want me to make your life hell.
