| New Here and looking for a pup Hi everyone! I've been lurking on this site for a few weeks now and have decided to finally post. I'm interested in finding a yorkie to show. Growing up my family bred and showed german shepherds and since moving out on my own I've decided to pursue my own avenue of showing. I need some advice though on going about finding that perfect pup. What do I ask breeders? What do I tell them about myself? Does anyone have a copy of a email that they've sent out, just to get some sort of idea on what breeders are looking for? Where do I look? I've been cautioned by family and friends, that most breeders and showers are snobby and rude. How do I get around that? What should I look for? Any help would be appreciated |

| Welcome! What part of California are you from? The only breeder I know of personally is the one where I got Bella from and I'm from So. Cal.

| A welcome from sunny and hot Florida. Sorry, I'm no expert on either breeding or showing, I just love yorkies and this site. I think you will find someone from Calif. here that will give good advice. |

| Welcome Welcome..yes, there are several show breeders here..you will be told just about the same from all. Go to shows, meet people, let them get to know you..it will take time. Ask to attend a few club meetings and meet people. No one is going to sell a novice a terrific show potential..but if you are willing to take a male you might get lucky. Good Luck |
