has the uk fallen out of love with the yorkie?????? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

MRS H · 06-24-2006, 07:46 AM

i ask this question because for the past 2 weeks i have advertised my 2 little boys to find loving homes and not a call or an enquiry i think the americans love this breed more than the brits this is weird i thought people would really want these guys they need mummys and daddys to look after them they are getting bored what do you think are they not as popular anymore??

I think you are right..Americans are crazy about Yorkies...they are number 3 in AKC listings.
What are the top ten breeds with the UK Kennel club?
Best wishes

i think yorkies are ether number 2 or 3 in the uk. maybe its cos they are boys as girls seem more populer or its the wrong time of year as people are going away on holiday. also depends how much you are asking as they seem to be any thing from 200 to 750 not sure why though.

MRS H · 06-24-2006, 01:52 PM

hi thanks for the replys i am asking £350 not bad i think with 6 weeks free insurance pedigree papers i think thats a good deal i think i just feel so sorry for them they need individual attention really, thanks for your comments i feel the holiday season maybe to do with it

YORKIE7 · 06-24-2006, 03:20 PM

Oh no,have you still not got homes for them? i would take one but money is tight at the moment. I think they are as popular as ever,but people all seem to want girls. I think also people have adopted those 204 yorkies from that old womans puppy farm.

I hope you find new homes soon

I think it has to do with the holiday season. Hope they find the perfect homes soon.

YorkieRose · 06-24-2006, 05:04 PM

If it is because they are males, then the public must be educated to the fact that males are the best pets. Stress neutering so they will not mark, provide a couple belly bands until they can be neutered.

Believe me, there was a time many years ago when we could not give away males..then I started offering a free first grooming and free boarding. I picked through thrift shops for carriers, blankets, toys and bowls..the males got a super send off and the tide turned...now I find males are very much in demand. Take them out to the park and public places where people can see them..do you have a stroller. We do it all the time.. Can you put a notice in your vets office..use free Internet sites in the UK..I have seen a number of them..good luck

MRS H · 06-25-2006, 12:27 AM

thank you and i must say my little Dexter my only boy is a dream no trouble, i cannot understand what the problem is with boys , i hope the tide changes towards them because people are missing out on loyal fantastic friends i just feel sad for the pups they are ready to start there new lives with there new families and if people would just come and have a look i know they would be loved i dare anyone not to fall in love its impossible!

sashajade · 06-27-2006, 10:53 AM

YORKIE7 · 06-27-2006, 05:33 PM
