Is it possible for 1 pup out a litter of.... - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Heidi came from a litter of one . Her mother didn't have difficulty to deliver her. As I can see $300.00 is from the lower price . If the Yorkie is not register but healthy , go for it .

hello everone!!
Well, the update is I spoke with the person who is selling the pup and she told me that she had bred her female which weighs (2-3 lbs) with in this order... male yorkie, male yorkie and chihuaha....... so now I am worried it will be mixed..... what to do, what to do./....... could a vet tell or blood work??????

Olivier · 09-06-2005, 06:52 AM

What do you want a purebred or a mix ? Why a bloodwork ? If this pup come from a mother of 2 - 3 pounds , I would suggest this breeder to immediately see Dr. Phil .

Oli, I am not following you with your post, still dazed I guess from my 3day weekend. Sorry!! I am looking for a pure bred.... I meant is there a way to tell if the dada was yorkie or chi, given the scenario???? Anyone in Texas selling a yorkie?????

The only way to know if the dad is a Yorkie is doing a DNA test on the pup and the parents .

Coty was an only pup! Cindy, Did you call the breeder that I gave you the info on?

cindy0721 · 09-06-2005, 08:16 AM

Tart, actually not yet.. I am still trying to get my wonderful hubby to agree with a bigger $$$ limit..... but so far, he's agreed to drive for my pup only in texas.... umm...... can you give me her info again.
***Plus, I am kinda hoping I can get a pup sooner than that...

Let me see if I am understanding this correctly. The breeder bred a 2-3lb female to 3 different dogs and it had one pup.

Someone that slipshod in breeding practices would be giving me a lot more to worry about than whether or not the pup was mixed. $300. is no bargain for a pup from someone this careless....though maybe she could use the $ to pay for Dr. Phil.

Diego · 09-06-2005, 09:11 AM

If I were you , I would not buy the puppy . Just my own opinion , this is a real shame to breed a 2 - 3 pounds females .

tartisst · 09-06-2005, 09:36 AM

Cindy, I re-sent the PM with the breeder info in it to you again. BTW....the breeder I'm referencing lives in Victoria, Texas. If I were you, I would not buy this puppy unless you want a mixed breed and are fine with that. It sounds like you want a purebred and from what you're telling us, it sounds like a crapshot! You just can't be guaranteed what you're going to get and the breeder knows this.

Save your money to get what you really want. I know that you're excited. But someone out here has the puppy that you want and that's what you should hold out for.

Snow Yorkies · 09-06-2005, 09:48 AM

I just had a one litter pup, so this is possible. But I just read your update.

I have to wonder what breeding practice this woman is up to !!! Why would she want to multi sire any litter???? I know this can happen by accident, but I can imagine using this as a method of breeding....

I would be very concerned !!!!

I am just curious if this is unusual, for a litter...???? Thanks everyone!!

No, that is not uncommon. I think that is PARTLY the reason these little ones are
more expensive than alot of other breeds.

Good one, Olivier. This whole thing is a crazy mess. I would go to the
Animal Protective League in your city and get a nice mix to love. If you
want a pure breed save and do alot more looking.

chachi · 09-06-2005, 11:07 AM

Yea that is normal and why they are normally more expensive. You are getting an excellent price on a yorkie.

cindy0721 · 09-06-2005, 11:43 AM

Well, thanks to everyone for responding,.. I don't think she did this purposely, however I also believe it was wrong... but I feel for the puppy. I really don't know what to do.... I mean there is the possibility of the pup being full bred also right?> I know she is selling the pup at a low price because she is not sure of the complete breed, I do think that shows alot about her character if she is being up front with this info, don't you guys think? I think it is best for me to wait, see the pup and deceifer for myself what I think, but for my own mind go in there with the possiblity that it MIGHT NOT be what I wanted and be prepared to leave without the pup.... who knows? Any advice anyone?
