I think it takes an especially callous, horrible, uncaring person to hurt or neglect an animal, especially a tiny yorkie so defenseless, precious and vulnerable. Truth be told this is how I ended up with Bruce...I had been looking into a Yorkie for quite some time, studying up, selecting a breeder, etc. When my mother and I happened to pass a "designer dog shop" and morbid curiosity lured us in. I like everyone else find the whole back yard breeder, puppy mill, pet shop operation disgusting and I told myself I would never, ever purchase a puppy from a place like this or support one in anyway...We walked in and it was swarmed with little teenage girls buying teeny tiny dogs at $750-$1800 a pop. I was about to yell at the shop manager (really the place is some sort of dog swap meet where breeders show their dogs) when I saw Bruce. A teeny tiny adorable Yorkie try to run away from the 15 year old version of Elmyra trying to clutch him. Without thinking I looked at his precious face, saw that her parents were caving and being in the brokerage place had been bad enough, and my mother and I grabbed him out of her hands and purchased him right away! I know I shouldn't have done this but it pained me to think of any precious yorkie with someone who did not love/know about the breed and wanted him only as a fashion accessory. Coincidentally after getting him healthy and happy Bruce is the best dog I have ever owned!

I cannot believe the deplorable, inhumane, and cruel conditions that these babies are born into and forced to live in because of the boom in popularity of small dogs. All the while back yard breeders are laughing all the way to the bank! Thank you Paris Hilton!

Sorry to go off on this rant, but anway thank you simonandhallie for saying something and speaking up for that baby since it could not speak for itself.

okay this is going to freak you guys out! ok i'm in noway into "naughty" adult things but my brother is(he's a single guy what can you say). i'm going to try and explain this the best i can without being inappropriate. yesterday my brother goes into this "adult site" and it features these guys in a bus that pick up random people off the street to do fun things so they pick up this girl from canada and she's in florida on spring break so she has her very tiny yorkie(wich is why my brother said i have to see this) with her and you should have seen the way they were treating that baby while mommy is busy the baby had a harness on and a leash and that a**hole was swinging it around like it was a puppet!the girl grabs the leash and takes it away from him, then continues on with what she's doing, then they drop her off literally, and she gets out of this bus first while the guy is holding this yorkie and can you believe HE TAKES OFF WITH THE DOG!!!! i was in total shock! then in another trailer he still has this dog! if you want to see it for yourself pm me, because i will not and i'm sure i can't post it here. i was so angry after seeing that even my brother who loooves dogs was so angry at the girl and the guy!so sad!
