UPDATE AUGUST 23rd:
We finally were able to get pictures ... please scroll to bottom to click on link to view them! They aren't the best pictures, but they are hard to get when you have to hide the fact that you are doing it. Check our "main website" (link below)for photos of these babies that need help. The breeder wouldn't let us inside and we could only get pics outside. There are also Maltese and Bichon there. But for now we have to concentrate on the Yorkies, as they are in the worst shape and suffering. We set up a meeting for Monday evening, August 28th between us and the breeder to get some of the dogs she will release. She wouldn't let us get them any earlier. There is a tiny, 3 lb. Yorkie female, another female yorkie and 7 yorkie puppies that are approximately 3 or 4 months old. We aren't sure how many others she will release. They all have mange. Some are literally scratching their skin off. It is one of the worst things you will ever see. We have until MONDAY to get enough money to get them and care for them. She is charging us $100 per dog just to release them, and that does not include the expenses for vet treatment and medication. If we ever needed your help to help these dogs, it is now. PLEASE DONATE NOW to help us get these babies before they are killed! PayPal is the quickest way to ensure we get the money in time to get them OR you may mail a check for their vet care. We will update when we have gotten enough donations, but as of this update we currently have ZERO donations to help these babies thus far. They will be fostered in Tennessee and Atlanta until healthy enough for their future forever families.
READ THE ENTIRE STORY BELOW:
These yorkies need your help! We were contacted by another breeder about many Yorkies needing our help. We were able to infiltrate this breeder's deplorable facility and have seen the conditions first hand. She happens to be a relative of the Maltese breeder we are rescuing dogs from. They all have mange, some severe. They are suffering. We have tried to figure out our options to help these babies, but the choices are limited. This particular county offers no animal control, no laws, no help. They say they can do nothing. If we make it public then our ability to help the other dogs in the other family member's houses (who are also breeders) will be non-existent. We are in the position where we have only one option. GET THEM OUT. They are willing to give them to us for a price, otherwise they will kill them. They will not deal with anyone else, and it is a miracle they will deal with us. We were there today, Saturday, August 19, and could not get pictures. We are trying to get pictures when we go back tomorrow or as soon as we can. We simply need to get them out. We will need to board all of these babies at our vets while they receive veterinary care for their horrible mange and who knows what else. We are just going to try to get the dogs and worry about the rest after they are OUT but we definately need money for their ongoing care and treatment and boarding and fees. We ABSOLUTELY CANNOT DO THIS WITHOUT SUBSTANTIAL DONATIONS. Our funds are already depleted. All we want to do is alleviate their suffering and get them treated if it is humanely possible and eventually into loving homes. These babies do not deserve to suffer so terribly and then just die in a horribly cruel and inhumane manner. Please help! We will update as soon as we have some more info. As soon as we can safely get pictures we will.

That's awful....I wish I had some extra money to donate....that's sick what that person did to those animals. I'm sure if vet care had been provided in the 1st place that they'd be fine now....that's so sad. I hope they all are okay now.....
