| Just shaking my head. This person evidently thinks she is an expert on Yorkies. I have read page after page from her site and I'm just shaking my head. This page made me laugh out loud. Secret Methods Used By Yorkie Breeders To Get The Best Results The Fourth paragraph reads. "It can be very hard on the body of such a small dog to have litter after litter. Therefore they limit it to a couple of pregnancies per year. This will likely yield between four and six puppies per year." |

| That is so sad really! My Yorkie is 2 years old and just had her first and last litter. I cant imagine putting her(or me) through it again. |

| this paragraph got me..... "Teacup Yorkie breeders have to be very careful about the size of the dogs they use for breeding. This is because a teacup should never be more than five pounds in weight when they are full grown." OBVIOUSLY she cant know that much about yorkies....

| Oh she has an entire section on the "Truth about Teacups" yet she repeatedly refers to them s teacups. On one page she tells about "reputable Breeders" who offer guarantees, so if you find out that your dog is a mix breed, or if it gets too big, they will buy it back from you. |

| well what I was really getting at was the "Reputable Breeder" giving a refund if it turns out that you got a mixed breed. |

| ??????? Why pay for her dvd and book when you can get the info for free??? Have a question on diet?? Go to the Yorkie Health & Diet forum. Have a question about grooming?? Go to Yorkie Grooming Talk and I could just go on. Kudos to her for making money off free advice.

| Only heartless people would return a dog for that reason... and how could a breeder not know they are breeding mixed breeds??

| I have seen this Lady before. I think it was a web page that said something like Warning, about Yorkshire Terriers. She must have all kinds of books out. |

| Well I would think before writing a book one should know something about the subject matter. her advice is very amusing, but it is obviouse she has never even owned a yorkie. |

| If I read a guarentee like that I would run for the nearest exit rofl. How can it be a reputable breeder if worried about a mixed breed being in their lines. |
