I am in central Florida and would be glad to try and help out. I didn't get an answer at the home phone and the voice mail box was full on the cell.
I would be glad to take a couple - I know several people that would love to adopt a yorkie.

I am wanting to go to where the yorkies are and pick a few. The phone numbers listed are not valid. No one answers or returns the messages that have been received. Has anyone spoken with her? I really would like to get them before they go to the pound.

I don't knowe if anyone ever got through. I've been watching people post about this all over yorkie groups and everyone says the same thing.

how frustrating.

I'd love to know if ANYONE at ever got a hold of this person.

ILoveBingoo · 03-28-2009, 07:58 PM

i would love to take one but how am i going to get to florida and than what happens to the rest

i feel so bad i hope u find a rescue who don't put them to sleep gluck

tweetyb715 · 03-29-2009, 05:41 AM

I still haven't been able to get in contact with anyone. I know a retired couple looking for an adult yorkie and I also know someone that works closely with the Humanitarians of Citrus county that take in dogs(and cats) -have them vet checked , spay/neuter, and placed in foster homes until a permanent home can be found. I also would be glad to foster some of the yorkies till we can place them new permanent homes. Please contact me by phone or e-mail if I can do anything to help. I posted my phone numbers earlier and my e-mail address is nancyb715@yahoo.com.

I just spoke with Becky Scott. All Yorkies have been adopted. She said they went fast. The relative was able to place them before she could get her hands on them to help out.

Not that I doubt you at all.. but I see you just joined today. Did you join just to tell us that? If so...may I ask who you are? This has been such a hot topic all lweek. Nobody has been able to get through to Becky. How were you able to reach her?

phojo3 · 03-29-2009, 07:19 AM

Vickie-

Thank you for your concern. I am trying to find a dream yorkie and stumbled upon this great site. I just simply picked up the phone and got Becky right away at her home. I'm sure you could do the same...and spoke with her. I got the answer that everyone was looking for, so I signed up and posetd a message right away to help out. I appreciate your curiosity, but a quick call would verify my information.

Geez....Just trying to help out

Welcome to Yorkie Talk. Its truly a wonderful forum and I truly hope you find your dream puppy.
I didnt man to offend you but if you read back through this thread you'll see why I asked. Literally hundreds of people have been trying to help this tragic situation so you can see, I hope, why I questioned you.
It's such wonderful news that all were rehomed. Too bad there weren't enough to go around.
BTW Thanks for letting us all know. (Breathing a sigh of relief!)

I just got this email forwarded to me this morning regarding the 40 Yorkies...

Subject: Yokies in Starke, FL - UPDATE

Hello everyone,

My name is Dianne Schultz and I'm a member of United Yorkie Rescue here in Florida. I have tried to write to anyone and everyone who may have either forwarded this email to someone else, and who may have forwarded to me, and others who forwarded it directly to me. I spoke with Becky Scott this morning - she said that the deceased owner's son gave away most of the yorkies involved in this situation, but that there were also maltese and poodles and some cats that she was working on getting out of the home. This was an overwhelming situation for everyone and thanks to all who offered to help! Becky said that she thought her mailbox was full so I wanted to give all an update.

The dogs apparently were in horrible shape, very unsocialized and all needing extensive medical care - so it's certain that some of them will be returned ............ sigh..............

A post script to this email was from a personal friend of mine who sent this to me. She added:

Remember the 40 yorkies in need? Well the stupid guy stood in front of the courthouse and GAVE THEM AWAY to anyone who would take them!

This was posted in on of the groups but it doesnt tell that part!

I sincerely hope this is not true. Has anyone else heard a story like this? ...That the guy stood in front of the courthouse and just handed over the dogs to anyone who walked by? If true, I bet within a few weeks, many of those dogs will end up at the humane society or worse. SHAME ON HIM!!!

Also guys as a mom to a U2 (Umbrella Cockatoo) please lets not forget them either. PLEASE OP contact The Bailey Foundation out of PA. The Bailey Foundation or All About Cockatoos - MyToos.com. Mytoos is a forum is much like our Yorkie forum and members there will know all the reputable rescues for Cockatoos to contact. These are extremely intelligent and extremely sweet parrots and deserve better then a life in cages. If they have many this woman may not only have been a dog breeder (or small puppymill with 40 dogs) but also a bird breeder. And, if you think the puppymills are bad you have never seen a bird mill. PLEASE OP contact the two places I listed above. Bailey Foundation is a wonderful rescue located in PA and the owner/operator may be able to lead you to someone in Florida.
