glenda beaver's pups?

[jasmanea]

Well a fellow breeder sent this to me since I was checking into some of Glenda Beaver's pups. I was thinking of purchasing a male. Anyone know if this has an validity to it?

Thanks!

go up above to search and put in glenda beavers, you will find a lot of threads on her, I would steer clear of her myself

no doubt about it, her yorkies are BEAUTIFUL!!! i mean really gorgeous.

however as the previous poster stated, based on things found out about her, i would never ever buy a pup from her. JMO

I would have no problem buying a puppy from Glenda. She has wonderful puppies and MANY people have bought them with no health problems or problems of any kind. She is a reputable breeder and has a great reputation as an exhibitor/breeder of Yorkies.

I personally would not buy a dog from glenda and I felt this way before glenda admitted herself to being involved in supplying a petstore with puppies. That really sealed the deal with me - that she would be involved in the petstore business in any way.

You know, I've always thought it was the mantra of reputable show breeders to "never buy from a pet store or to supply a pet store with puppies". So, I'm at a loss to understand how any reputable breeder could recommend Glenda after being made aware that she has supplied a pet store with puppies?

To the OP - yes it has validity. I don't know if her practices have changed since she was exposed on YT.

It depends on what YOU are looking for in a Yorkshire Terrier. Are you looking for pet, breeder or show dog? I own a Glenda Beaver Yorkie which was purchased for showing. She has a lot of the old lines in her pedigree which is what I wanted. She is absolutely gorgious and I can't wait to show her. YOU decide what YOU want to do. Talk to Glenda. She is one tough cookie with her Yorkies.

And, I know all about the other thread. Didn't stop me. Good luck.

I was really disappointed when I read about her involvement with selling puppies to petstores. I myself won't even step foot in a store that sells puppies. I definitely wouldn't support a breeder who sells to a pet store whether she still does it or not. It's a shame really, because she does have beautiful Yorkies.

Personally, I would never knowingly buy from or support any pet store or any breeder that has turned their own or any other breeders dogs over to a pet store. It wouldn't matter to me if they did it once or a number of times. I don't care if they made money or if it was a favor.
There are alot of beautiful Yorkies out there and many that come from reputable breeders!

Ok I have read enough. Thanks for the information. I have standards I have to live with myself on as well, so I'll keep that choice to myself. I appreciate all the info and I am going to request this post be closed if possible so it doesn't turn into a debate LOL

Glenda DID NOT sell any off HER puppies to a pet store. It was never made PERFECTLY clear, but she was doing friends a favor. This does not reflect on how great HER puppies are and what kind of breeder she is.

What I don't understand completely is the connection of Glenda's name with Carolyn Buffington on this site.......

If you go to Carolyn's site, Genisis, she states that Glenda helped her get started ( or restarted) in her breeding program of yorkies.... but if you google Carolyn's name there are a LOT of sick pups coming from her breedings .... What exactly is the connection?...Am I missing something?

Maybe you should just ask Genisis first before basically saying that Glenda dogs produce alot of sick puppies. One of Glendas dogs will not "fix" all the problems in a breeding program. No reputable breeders dog can do that. And the breeding between the two different lines may not even "mesh".

All I'm saying is if I was Glenda I would not want my name associated with a breeder that is producing pups with serious problems.......If her name is listed there it would certainly cause a person to question the health of both breeders pups.....It does not say she received "one" from Glenda to start her program....It just leaves a lot of room for concern for a purchaser when the connection is there......
