Male Yorkie must be rehomed - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

lisatodd · 04-04-2007, 05:57 AM

poor little thing. IMO i think your price is a bit high for rehoming him. maybe if you lower the price, you might get some takers. if he is like you say he is, they may have to put money forward to get him to change. his aggression may get worse w the rehoming.

good luck to you and i hope he does find a wonderful home

Maximo is really a cute guy..looks very much like mine although mine is much bigger. He really does look sad why is that? He actually looked more sad to me than aggressive just my opinion ya. Although not every yorkie has a happy face including mine but Maximo really looks sad..that was actually my first thought when I saw his picture. $750 is really a bit too expensive especially if the owner have to work on the aggression issue.

I am the first mommie. I advertised and sold this pup on Yorkietalk we called him Mossimo. you can see it under search. the mommie that has him now loves him so much. and she did contact me recently that she is having a problem with him. ( the pup is 16 months old now) i recommend neutering him. she said she really wants to keep him or find a good home or even if i would like to have him back. she is going to try schooling him in a class to see if that would help. I told her that she is a good person and i hope that she could find him a good home. i sold this pup for only 350. I meet her and her family and her other dogs she has in Nashville. I love all of my yorkies and even have Pepperann's second litter on here for sell now. i keep them all very well socialized with other animals (goats, chickens, horses, like a zoo around here even a cat, jack russell, lhasa apso, rat terrier ( which all the dogs are neutered and are our pets). we go to the flea mkt and other socializing places like petsmart. all the other litter mates are doing well. I am not trying to be mean. i would love this all to work out and i truely believe this is not a fault of mine. we have never had a conflict.

I am not trying to hurt her price. I know they are extremly high in the city. I live way, way out in the country. and she drove from New york to get him at that price. she has put alot of time in to him. she has had him since April 2006. i just wanted to make it clear i am not a bad breeder. I truely love my Yorkies.

TLC · 04-05-2007, 01:08 PM

Maybe if it doesn't work out for her than you could take him back

mistyinca · 04-05-2007, 01:16 PM

I feel for everyone involved here.

He does look sad. Am I understanding correctly that he ISN'T neutered? That seems like the first step to take if he is so aggressive. Plus, if he is aggressive, it is a temperament that should not be bred anyway.

I hope he finds a good home. I have to think that if neutered, and rehabilitated with an animal behavioralist, he could be a good pet once again.

Poor Maxi I feel for you bud. I do think you will have a hard time with your price that high sorry you need to rehome

Perroamor · 04-05-2007, 07:06 PM

All I wanted was to find a home for him, I could of said he was just a handfull but I did not. I told the truth. As far as price is concerned Thank you to the breeder for knowing that I did put a lot of time and committment into him. I also let her know that there was a problem. The end result is not about money or what I paid for him but Maximo. It is not about how sad he looks in a picture that is him. There was a verbal offer between the breeder and I nothing written if I wanted to give him back let her know and I did. The breeder and I have never had a conflict over him nor will we ever. I was surprised because I did not say the breeders name I would of never said anything negative about her we make choices in life it is ok if she can't take him back. I wonder how many of us would take a dog back. Everything has been put on the table but Maximos welfare that is sad I will be the person who did wrong by him in this venue. In my house hold my Daughter comes first, I have seen other posts in reference to this I stand firm on this. Sorry the price is as it stands. If you are interested in him PM. I think the negativity will become consuming on this post he is still for sale but I will only look for Private Messages.

yorkiegirl83 · 04-05-2007, 08:37 PM

I'm not trying to be rude, but it is the truth that it will be extremely hard to find a person that will spend 750 on a yorkie that has aggression issues/is not neutered, ect when many people can buy a puppy for 750 or adopt a dog for less than that.

I understand that you've put time and care and ultimately expenses into caring for him, but that was your duty as a yorkie parent. I understand that your daughter comes first, as she should... but this little guy also needs a home where he can be properly cared for and have his bad behavior addressed.

It seems like taking a loss in price would be less of an issue, and keeping your daughter and yorkie safe would be more important.

Anyhow, good luck to you and to Maximo... I hope he finds a wonderful loving home.
