Only because I'm absolutely in love with my little one am I giving PuppyPetite 3 stars...\r

I researched for a Teacup/Toy Maltese before contacting puppy petite. When they quoted the prices over the phone it seemed like they are more reasonable than some of the puppy boutiques in Manhattan like ""Pets on Lex"". \r
I went over to the PuppyPetite store in Brooklyn and was amazed to see the setup...very sketchy, with dog cages around the walls and a small counter to pay for them. Had it not been crowded with other people I would have almost immediately left.\r
Then I picked up the 1st Maltese puppy and fell head-over-heels....the prices fluctuate between these puppies based on their size or so I was told. I got mine for $1200+ $100 (tax)......Offcourse now I think he's worth every dollar but at that time I really felt cheated because they'd said that the toys range from $580 to $900 (mine's a toy) and teacups begin from $700.\r
I looked-up my dog's breeder all the way in MN and found out that the registration # belongs to a different breeder when my puppy was bred by someone else...apparently a family friend of the breeder whose registration# is on the papers....very very questionable.\r
