| 13.5 weeks old male TINY Your name: sandy Your city, state:Illinois Your phone number: 815-923-7578 Your email address:raynedropz@sbcglobal.net Yorkie(s) For Sale: 1 male Age of Yorkie(s):almost 14 weeks Weight of Yorkie(s) parents: mom-4lbs ?oz and dad 2lbs?oz Current weight of Yorkie(s) for sale:1.58lbs Price: 1500 Do you ship your Yorkies: NO Jakey is an almost 14 weeks old tiny male. I bought him from a breeder 2 weeks ago and thought I could be "supermom" and manage 4 dogs and a one year old baby, but I have discovered that I cannot give him all the time and attention he so deserves. The breeder is not intersted in taking him back as she already got paid, SO I am trying to find him a better home that will dote on him and give him all the attention and lap time he loves so much. He is going to be tiny, probably not more than 3.5lbs and most likely closer to 3 as an adult. He is AKC and his color is now black and tan, but when he sheds it out according to the registration he will be blue and gold. He is doing well with housebreaking, not perfect but he does make potty outside- but he is only a baby! He is super with the other dogs in my house and my baby. I am selling him for 1500 and will not just sell to the first buyer, he needs to find a great home where his needs will be priority and he will get a lot of playtime. He has been vetted and is current on shots and fecal exam negative. I will not ship him. He is located about 50 minutes from Chicago and about 30 minutes from Rockford. Very serious inquiries only please. I will also only accept cash on his sale. |

| Good luck with finding the perfect forever home for your new pup. I am sure you are having a hard time letting him go. But that is wonderful that you are thinking of the little guy and his needs. Again good luck, I am sure you will be able to place him with a loving family.

| thank you! wow! What a nice message board. I was afraid of how people would perceive someone trying to rehome a puppy. Many people are often so angry at people trying to rehome a puppy or a dog of any age. I appreciate all the positive comments and well wishes in finding him a home. It is going to be hard once someone shows a serious interest, but he will probably be the happiest in a household with more free time. I could give him a healthy, happy and safe home, and he wouldn't ever know the difference, but a place where he can PLAY PLAY PLAY and be held ALL THE TIME (or most of it!)will make him feel like he is a prince, and I do think he deserves that. I will give hiim a good home, but realize there is better out there and that is what I am hoping to find here. thanks again |

| I think it is a very honorable thing for you to do. I know what you mean about people getting angry but in your case I think you should be fine. I hope everything works out for you. Good luck and keep us posted. Welcome to YT also. |

| answers to ACTRESS questions... Thanks for the inquiry....I will answer these the best I can for you ) Did you buy him from a breeder on yorkietalk? If not, who did you buy him from? I dont think the breeder is on yorkietalk but I dont know that for sure. I bought him from an ad I saw locally in the paper, the breeder was from a private home in Roselle, Illinois. I just wanted a pet, and rather than ship one in I found a local place so just opted to go their to pick out the puppy Do you have pics of the parents? I dont have pics of the parents and dont think I can get them. They were both blue/gold and I know nothing about standards for this breed, but they were quite nice looking dogs, the dad was smaller than the mom and he was 2lbs and some ounces and the mom was 4lbs and some ounces. I have the registration papers (havent filled them out yet since I am selling him) and theiir numbers are on their if that would help?? Is there a contract to go with him as a health guarantee? When I bought him there was a one year health guarantee that only covered life threatening genetic defect, or something severe along those lines, and the deal was an exchange for a new puppy when available and I believe a refund (but not sure, I dont have it in front of me) if nothing was available. He has been vet checked and the only thing noted was he is cryptorchid (only one testicle is evident, but vet assured this is normal and it could become apparent or if they neuter him just pull it down, and for breeding apparently it will not affect him--) Because I am not a breeder I personally do not offer a guarantee, but I would assume that whoever owns him gets that one year out of him if their is a serious problem. If someone is local and wants him and decides after a few days they dont want him I would take him back and just keep trying to rehome him, rather then totally confuse him.This breeder was not willing to take the dog back from me when I decided against him because she already got paid...so that irritated me since her network is probably better than mine...but then I found this site and hopefully it will help speed up the process of networking him and getting him a solid home. I hope this was informative enough. I wish I knew more about the parents, I seem to get that question a lot...) Sandy |
