| Dolly's Babies...What do you think? Okay everyone. My name is Donna. I posted my 1st thread in the general.."Any Foster or Adoptive Rescue Parents Out There".... Please check out my previous posts for Dolly's story. It's relative, but I want to get all of this out to you before any more time goes by. Unfortunately several days have passed due to a fundraiser and some neglected horses. I work for Artex Animal Welfare Association. Dolly is my rescue and my foster....She was spade !!!!! today!!!! She is, we belive, a Puppy Mill Breeder "Bitch" (sorry- hate that word no matter what) So last week, I was in Petsmart. A Yorkie puppy was visiting in the arms of an 8 year old girl with her mother. I went over and introduced myself.....Can't help it people......I asked if I could hold the little Yorkie Pup...The woman said "Oh so it is a Yorkie? We weren't sure.....We only payed $100 for him" Then she told me when she drove up to the place her only thought was "Oh what have we gotten ourselves into" When I asked where she got him for that price. She told me and it was just 2-3 blocks from where I picked up Dolly.......The puppy they were told was 15 weeks old...... I couldn't even begin to guess. But he was terrified!!!!! I have not had a chance to contact these people to see if they have any more....And I, of course, don't have on hand the money needed if there are....But could have in a couple of days if needed..... Does anyone have any suggestions......I have not seen this place....... but due to Dolly.......I am sure it is a Puppy Mill......HELP what should I do. We, as a rescue are not capable of a raid....Nor do we have enough help locally with other rescues.....Any advise would be appreciated.....I will check the paper and see if I can spot the ad and will try to forward it on. My husband and I currently have 5 dogs (2 Yorkies) of our own, 2 Foster dogs and I am caring for 2 mares, a stud and a colt at the local fairgrounds.... I will be happy to work as a holding home for any babies if needed. Will need help with foster and transport if anyone is interested... HELP
