| Well if anyone has a point she does. I have looked on a million (of course exaggeration) sites today and no one offered that. I don't have a problem w/ it and neither does HHA... I think she was just pointing they must be few and far between. She has been very nice to me. People on here really do make too many personal attacks. |

| Maybe you haven't looked at the right breeders then... Also, there are some great reputable show breeders on here that don't have their own websites.

| I just said I wouldn't answer you. I believe you were just asking in hopes you could stir up trouble. I have answered that question to many people today.... all on PMs... and they are all still PMing me. I won't answer to you because you are just out to justify any attack on me. I am not going to get defensive about you and I have better things to do than fight w/ some women that must not have got their fill of the catty girl fights in highschool. I am just stating.... I am not going to talk to you... answer your questions as I don't believe them to be sincere questions... I believe them to be goads.... you are trying to get the pot stirring. If you had asked it any other time... I might have believed you sincere and answered you. But ... just as you have the right to believe what you want about me... I have the right believe what I want about you. If you want to PM me in a sincere question answer me... I would be glad to answer. I will not continue to let people stir the pot and try to upset me here. AND it is just a matter of principle... you don't care... you just what to find a reason to make Dina right and me wrong and a reason to keep people going and going and going. I talk only to ones that care. There is someone that wants me to give her this dog and let her get it care... if it needed it... I would do that. However... it doesn't... but I don't have any problem w/ people w/ differing views as long as they have the best interest of my dogs at heart... and are not trying to rile me up.... |

| I'm not attacking you, but knowing what I know now, I would never buy from a broker. Too many unanswered questions, too many potential problems. I don't respect breeders that sell their dogs to brokers, and they wouldn't be my choice of where to buy a puppy. I'm not calling your character into question -- I just don't think this is the best way to buy a puppy. I hope you find your girl a home since that's the most important thing regardless and I hope the new owner is extremely informed. |

| Now, I just went to shooterdog.com, and I've been reading and reading, and the longest on congenital defects I've seen is 2 years...hummm...! And these are ALL very good reputable breeders! She came on here trying to find a good home for this baby, and if I wasn't so far from her, I would take her in a heartbeat...! not to dress up and show off, but to love, as that's what that little girl needs....this is all I'm writing on here..I will e-mail Meg or pm her...now, I have to get back to my dogs...they need their attention!! |

| Okay I wasn't going to jump in but I guess I will. 5 months 1 lb, huge warning bells. I would never consider selling a puppy that size at that age and this one if I were the breeder I would not be selling it at all. It is far too likely that there is something very wrong and that is why this puppy is this tiny. BTW, a 5 month old especially that small, needs to eat oftener than twice a day. Anorexia a common in health problem puppies and documented as a common symptom in LS puppies. I don't think the weight has anything to do with how much it is eating, something is wrong. This puppy in my opinion, is severely undersized. There are issues that can be wrong that CANNOT BE TESTED FOR. What are they? Embryonic or immature kidneys. Neurological problems that may not show up even with a specialist. Other liver issues that a test may not show up, may need an exploratory perhaps liver biopsy which likely cannot be done given the size of this puppy. Growth hormone issues and those are just off the top of my head. My bet is also hydrocephalic and I would definitely look for an open fontanel. If it is hydrocephalic, an open fontanel is better because it will help pressure from building up. This puppy should not be sold. It should be kept by the breeder, wait and see, run tests, do the spaying with your Vet when it would be safe if ever. If this puppy is sold, my bet would be the Vet bills could very well be astronomical as time goes by. I think there is something everyone should realize especially in any puppy that isn't quite the norm. From conception to birth, the dams system is what keeps it going and growing. ONce it is born, its own system now has to support it, it does not have the help of the moms physiology anymore to do that. Over time, which can be days weeks months often the puppies system, if there is a problem, will keep compensating to sustain life. Over time, eventually the probelm will manifest as the body can no long keep compensating. JMHO and yes I am a show exhibitor/breeder with absolutely nothing for sale until I have no idea when. My website totally revamped should you choose to visit and read lots of info on yorkies is www.loribenyorkys.com |
