Please dont buy from stores, they all come from puppy mills :(

My friend got a yorkie from here that died of coccidia after one week of having him. This is a puppy mill pet store. I live in NYC and I flew out of town to get my yorkie. I would really recommend doing your research and finding a akc breeder. Do not buy a dog from this pet store/

The same thing happened to my best friend and she took them to small claims court and won!!! It had nothing to do with the money but the principal- this store is disgusting. Not only did she buy a sick puppy but that puppy got her other yorkie sick!!!! I'm so sorry for your loss- hopefully someone will learn from your awful experience.

Hey I actually saw their page on Myspace and I messaged the person and he promised me if I came in person he would give me a dog for 700 just because I had a pretty face. He wasn't professional at all and cared more about getting a date than telling me about the puppies when I asked for information. I think they're a puppy mill as well be careful.

I wonder if you got your doggie yet.
My friend got her Yorkie from this guy named Henry who is a breeder in NJ
She loves the breeder and loves the puppy too. She saids he suported her all the way.

Puppy Petite - Stay Away
 

I wished I have seen this tread last November when I was looking for a puppy. It would have saved me a trip to NY.
Puppy Petite
THEY ARE HORRIBLE
HORRIBLE PLACE :mad:
HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE :mad:

I hope someone can take them out of business because that's not the way to treat those little cuties. :mad:

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM

First off, Hi and Welcome to Yorkie Talk...:wavey::welcome4::yorkietal Be very careful of Greenfield Pets. com and Lancaster puppies.com... If you look @ the Breeders names you will see that they're Amish and PuppyMills. Stay away from them. They pose them with cute little wagons,Beanis Babies and such. But, They're still PuppyMills. Be very careful who you buy from. Please do not go to a pet store, too many puppymill pups and brokers there. I wish you good-luck in finding your baby. Be patient and the right one will come along... :yorkiesar:goodluck:

i got my puppy from there and nothing is wrong shes great....

I'm sorry But she is still a baby Lot's of thing's don't happen til there older. I pray your baby is fine But it still doesn't take away from the fact that this place get's there puppies from a Puppymill.
Did you know that they get there puppies delivered to them on a big truck.
Truthfully Prepare Now with a bank account if you already don't have one Because Coming from a Puppymill There could be Any Health Problems & it can be very expensive.

she has papers and i know alot of people that got there puppies from there n there older now n everythings fine

Papers really don't mean anything when there from a puppymill
Your friend's got lucky.

Please DO NOT buy a puppy from Puppy Petite. They are horrible! If you go to their website it dosent seem like they get their puppies from mills, but then when you email them, they tell you that you have to come to their house to see the puppies, and then their house is a pet store! Its horrible :mad:

well for all u people that say its horrible i just got back from the vet with my puppy n she is so healthy n fine so idk maybe i just got lucky....:animal-pa

That's Great New's! I hope it's the same for the future.
Please do some research on some health problem's in petstore puppies.


Also behavioral Problems.



"Obedience instructors and canine behavioral consultants will be happy to tell you about the temperament and behavior problems that develop in many pet shop puppies as they grow up.

Bad temperament shows up later.Most pet shop puppies start out playful and friendly, but as they mature, their genes begin to assert themselves. If their parents or grandparents had shy or aggressive or hyperactive temperaments, those genes will show up during adolescence and adulthood.

Many pet shop puppies are nippy. Some were removed from their mother before 7 weeks of age, a critical period of time where she teaches them "bite inhibition." Some have learned to nip from interacting with so many potential owners wandering through the pet shop, including kids who tug and play roughly. Most of these potential owners thought the nipping was cute, didn't correct the puppy for it, and so the habit becomes entrenched.

Housebreaking can be a problem.Finally, raised in a small cage in which they're encouraged to eliminate freely, pet shop puppies are notoriously difficult to housebreak."

This thread was started back in 2006;)

It's still important to bring up Since people are still buying from there.

I agree. We should let as many people know as we can to stay away from places like this one :(

Bad breeders--or Petshops
 

I read these posts with interest. I dont usually post any responses--but just this one time i will. I know some of you dont have yorkies yet and are in the research and "looking" stages. I would offer the following advice: (1) Dont buy from a pet store--these pups come from puppy mills. Most of them are shipped in on short notice, and in transport can acquire illnesses- such as Giardia, Coccidia, Parvo, Kennel Cough. The Pet Shop may be clean, but you dont know where the pups came from, and who or what they were exposed to on the way to the Pet Store in question. When most reputable breeders import dogs into their kennels, they place new pups in isolation for a ten day period(yes, they still get cuddled, and watched over, and cared for well) but, they dont jeopardize their kennel. When you get ready to buy a yorkie, or other pup--be sure to go to the Owner or Breeder's home. Make sure you see the parents of the pup you are looking at. Make sure the mom even has fuller breasts and looks like this is her pup. Look at the kennel, and how clean it is, how good it smells, what shape the other dogs are in, how they respond to their owner's and your touch, and what the pups are acting like. Are they clear eyed, are the coats nice, are they energetic and confident and are they playing with the others well. If this is not enough, ask for references, as many as you need to satisfy you--and actually email or call these people. Ask them about their experiences with the breeder or owner. Finally, ask what type of guarantee they are giving you for the pup. Will they cover any congenital defects that make themselves known before the pup is a year old. Sometimes pups will seem well at the first vet check but problems crop up later--this has happened to just about all breeders at one time or another. If they have never had an issue, they are not being truthful. Things happen. All you can do as a prospective new yorkie owner is to ask alot of questions, really observe the surroundings when you are looking at a pup, really watch the pup yourself and check the references given you before you buy from them. Good luck.

:thumbup: Very well said. People please educate yourselves about puppymills. You can just go to youtube and type puppymill and you will see the horror places that those poor puppies come from. You can search here on the forum by typing in puppymill in the search. We are at one point or another didnt know any better, but it is very important to educate yourself. Once you view those videos and check the forum you will not want to buy a puppy from the store. My signature says it all.

hey i actually bought my yorkie from puppypetite in brooklyn and i am absolutely happy with her, shes my little angel. they are a very trust worthy store and i would like to make it clear that none of their puppies come from mills. they do offer a one year health guarantee and free vet visits. we live in pa and my yorkie is a little over a year old. since then she has had to go to the vet once and they reinburst us for the vet bills, and they also gave us vitamins for the her for up to a year. i do reccommend that you do buy your puppy from them you will be very happy you did. also unlike many other pet stores who claim to be selling teacup yorkies and then grow to be 10 pounds, their dogs stay true to their size (my baby is 3 pounds). one thing i think you should be warned about because no pet store will tell you this and it is what i am goin through now with my yorkie is they may develop liver problems. if you do decide to buy your puppy from them, take advantage of the 14 days and have your puppy checked for liver shunts. hope my info helped you. oh one more thing their puppies are already trained to go on pee pee pads.

when did u get ur puppy??
i got mine 30th of december and she is going to be 3 months and is perfectly heathly and i got mine from that place as well....i hate how people put negitive stuff on here bc of them but my baby is great!!!
i took her to the vet when i was down with the antibiotics she was on and the vet said everything was great!!!

True to size are you kidding me I know plenty of dog's of that have come from there & None of them has stayed within the standard They have grown Way Over.

& They do get there puppies from puppymills just like every other petstore.

They should Not be selling Puppies with liver shunt They could have been prevented This tell's you right there that none should be buying from them.

A healthy Puppy does not need antibiotics.

She said her baby has Liver shunt That is not a good thing.

mine was on antibiotics when i got her.....but shes done now...
the vet said it was something good for her so....

Welcome. I know it's hard to wait when you decide you want a Yorkie, but like everyone's telling you it doesn't sound like such a great place. Look in our two yorkies for sale sections, and put in a post under puppies wanted. It's better to wait a little longer, and make sure you get a healthy dog.

i guess i just got lucky my beautiful baby is great!!!!
i love her with all my life

I got my pup from Puppy Petite before I knew any better. I should had done my research beforehand but I didn't, it was an impulse buy. I thank god I've been lucky and at 9 months she has been healthy up to this date. I did my research on my specific pup with all the info she came with and she came from Missouri, which means puppymill. Meanwhile the store stated my pup came from a local breeder, which was a total lie. I dont think anyplace that really cares about there pups would ship their dogs to a pet store at such a young age, I purchased her when she was 9 weeks old. Took my dog to the the vet and the vet said there was no need for antibiotics for a healthy dog. I worry constantly about her health cause I have no idea where she really came from. Now that I've done my research and know better I would never shop from them again nor any other pet store. There customer service was not good at all. They were helpful when I came into the store but the moment I decided which pup I wanted I became invisible and all they saw was the money. They didnt answer any of my questions but I had already fallen in love with my pup so I didnt care at the time. People should really do their research before they decide from where to get your pups from.

I am so upset to hear that so many puppies are bred this badly and feel sorry for anyone who had to go through the hard times with an injured or ill puppy

If you are still looking for a puppy though, I got my morkie at petite pets in long island new york and I absolutely adore him! they only breed Maltese, Yorkie, and shiz zu(they also do mixes Ex: morkie (my puppy) shorkie ect)

they take such good care of there pups and I was so impressed of how clean and protective they where of their puppies. if you have any questions please feel free to send me a message

here is their website: Petite Pets unique toy breed puppy boutique featuring Yorkies, Maltese, Shihtzus, Morkies, Shorkies, and Shihtese

hope I could help

if i look at my information on where my lil pup was from it says shes from a breeder that lives in brooklyn, ny.
