You have got to be aware of the killing of thousands of mixed breed dogs each year.

Yes, I am aware of the fact and that is why I adopt as many strays and rescue as I can. I also breed dogs that I believe serve a person and bring happiness to people's life. It is a person's individual choice to buy or adopt. We offer both. We also microchip our dogs and if one was to ever show up in a pound we would know about and we have people sign contracts stating if they can't keep the puppy that we have a right to get the dog back. Which we have done on one occasion whose daughter had severe allergies and we took the puppy back and refunded the money and resold the puppy. That doesn't sound like a mill to me.

Thankfully, for the sake of our last nine rescues we adopted (10 puppies dumped on the side of the road) the people decided to adopt them without seeing the puppy in person. We shipped to nine different states. They wanted to give a stray a chance at good life and a good home and they did. So the Humane Society recommendation could have cost these puppies their life but they were adopted instead.

I also want to add, I could make a website that says that I'm a vet, that site offers free web space if anyone is interested, and it even tells you how to make a profession looking page. Do not believe everything that you read on the Web.[/QUOTE]

Yes, you could make a website and say your a vet but you would be lying if you did so whereas I am not. I graduated from Oklahoma State University in 1996, Oklahoma liscense # 3766 You can view it at www.sandcreekpets.com/veterinaryliscense.html

And yes, I also agree do not believe everything you read on the Web. Good practical common sense information that it never hurts to be reminded of.

Again, I only joined this site to try to be a help with any veterinary questions and to advertise healthy well socialized Yorkie puppies and hopefully find good qualified potential buyers. Anything other than that I will no longer reply to. I beleive I have explained my situation adequately and everyone is free to believe what they want. I want to thank everyone for their replies and welcomes.

I am still researching the cat hair loss question posted earlier.

Professionally,
Laura Morphis DVM
