I have very small yorkies to sell.
Small size, coat and beauty guaranteed. They are wormed and vets checked and have all of their vaccinations up to date. The puppies are raised as pets, not caged or confined but roam freely in our home so they have an excellent temperament. Ship available via airlines. I am selling for 800 dollars plus shipping. http://spaces.msn.com/members/canildlamorim2005/ |

The best time and place to educate a novice buyer about what to expect from a responsible breeder is right with the advertisement or litter announcement. Sometimes the responsible breeder will do it themselve, but sometimes they forget. And then, of course, many breeders either don't know themselves about good breeding practices, and others just don't care to follow them. Here is a small bit of help from one Yorkshire Terrier site. http://www.ytca.org/faq.html It isn't as good as some breed clubs provide, but better than nothing. The club code of ethics is also a reasonable guide to questions that might be asked. http://www.ytca.org/ethics.html For example, one might reasonalbly ask of a breeder what tests were done in an effort to screen for which heriditary poroblems. Liver shunt disease is a particular problem in the breed and no educated and caring breeder will fail to screen for the problem. Unfortuanately large numbers of breeders are not at all knowledgable about health problems nor about how to reduce the rate of occurence. Which is largely why the problem exists. http://www.yorkierescue.com/ Patellar luxation (a slipped or dislocated knee joint) and spinal cord problems are also of concern. -- Diane Blackman There is no moral victory in proclaiming to abhor violence while preaching with violent words. http://dog-play.com/ http://dogplay.com/Shop/dogplayshop.htm |
