I contacted a breeder I founds threw pets4you.com. They have some adorable puppies! I was asking her questions and this is what she said.
"I receive the puppies from Europe. They arrive from Ireland, England or Scotland. They are hand picked and members of very fine kennel clubs." I asked her about this and I am waiting her response..... what do you guys think?

I tried to post this earlier but now I dont see it.... hopefully it doesnt show up twice now! I am looking for a puppy and I came across a breeder with some really good looking puppies. She is in California, I emailed her about the pups and this is what she said, " I receive the puppies from Europe. They arrive from Ireland, England or Scotland. They are hand picked and members of very fine kennel clubs. "

Have you guys every heard of this before?

Not sure....
that sounds kind of fishy if you ask me.

adahl · 04-18-2007, 06:29 PM

She is in my area kinda so I can see the puppies before I buy or put a deposit, but I dont know??

Yikes is all I can say. There is no need to purchase from someone who isn't the breeder. Elk Grove....where? Maybe we can help you out on here.

adahl · 04-18-2007, 06:37 PM

Califonia!

Pup-e-Love · 04-18-2007, 06:38 PM

I found your other post. It was toward the bottom!

Anyway...
Do you have the name of the breeder? If so, you can always post it on here and if anyone knows anything about her someone will let you know. Sorry I can't be more help!

If you haven't gotten any response, you can always bump this back up, and maybe someone new will see it.

Anna Banana · 04-18-2007, 07:02 PM

Yeah, sounds kind of fishy to me too...I'm sure you can find better breeders on here if you ask for recommendations in your area...

wemple2 · 04-18-2007, 07:07 PM

Doesn't sound like she is the breeder, if she "receives her pups..."

I just got a Yorkie in California not too far from where I live and after much research and a couple of bad experiences, I found one of the best Yorkie Breeders in So. Cal. North Hollywood to be exact.

I would be more than happy to give you their name and number. It is two guys who breed the yorkies and the Mother is on site. The mother is beautiful and healthy, unlike some of the photos of the mothers I have seen. Again, she is on site and greets you at the door with kisses.

Their home is super clean and they have beautiful photos of yorkies that they once showed all around the home.

They do not let their puppys leave their home until about 12 to 14 weeks depending on size. If the puppy is a real tiny, they will keep it until 14- 16 weeks. Good sign right there!!

These two men are a wonderful couple and have a beautiful home and a true passion for Yorkies.

I am not sure where in CA you live, but if you want a healthy, Well Socialized, beautiful faced yorkie, it will be well worth the drive. Feel free to contact me directly for more info.

I have had my baby Martin for 2 weeks now and everyone is so impressed at how well trained and socialized he is. They really did a fine job.

I would not steer you wrong, I was once a victim of a careless breeder and learned valuable lessons from the experience. ;-)

I'm also in CA. If you pm me, I can let you know if I know this breeder (?)--doesn't sound like a breeder, maybe a broker.

purpledaffodil · 04-18-2007, 07:30 PM

I wouldnt do anything overseas, unless they let you pay after you get the pup. Otherwise I'd say scam all over.

Catrina · 04-18-2007, 07:32 PM

yeah don't get a pup oversees...how sad and scared it will be coming over if it wasn't a scam..
