| Doesn't mean you have to buy the puppy. You just one a list. Then usually you need to pick one in 6 weeks..Put a deposit.Then take them home in 12. That way if you decide you don't want one they can sell to someone who want it. That how I bought all mine. I know both parents before the dogs even born. |

Yes, because there are no papers which means there is no guarantee that she is getting a Morkie. Do not Morkie breeders give papers (I don't know as I've never had one) and should they not give shots before release? If papers are of no concern, a shelter will have tons of puppies who are smaller, come with shots, are spayed/neutered and won't charge you an outrageous price for a designer name. That was my point and that's how I meant it. . Apologies if it was construed differently as I can see how the comment could have been taken the wrong way. | |

I understand now that mixed breeds do not give papers (I've never had a mixed breed so didn't know!) but surely, if they are claiming 100% purebred lineage for the parents, wouldn't the parents have papers? It just seems shady to me and the fact that the dog is being released without its shots seems wrong. I don't care, personally, about breeds as far as preference for a pet. Some people like big dogs, some people like 'labradoodles' or 'puggles' or whatever... Fine. That's not my thing but I get it could be another persons preference. All I'm saying is that puppies should have shots before they leave their mom. For someone to charge the price of what a purebred in the newspaper goes for (not a good idea to buy from the newspaper but you can see what I'm saying), including shots and papers, then what is the reason for releasing it before shots?? Puppies can die when they are exposed to things before immunity by vaccination. It seems careless and ignorant. THAT is why I think a shelter would be better if you just want a small dog. If you want a Morkie, specifically, I'd consider another breeder. I'm not sure why this thread derailed so far from the OPs original question but it appears some people question their previous actions and that is great...we can learn from that.. I hope the OP learns from this thread, too. Good luck. | |

YT Addict | Morkie prices I have raised three litters of Morkies and if you want to get technical, Yorkies are mutts also, they are mixed with about 3 different breeds of dogs. I have seen ugly yorkies AKC and ugly Morkies. I raised Yorkies for 10 years. I do not like the word mutt. Yes 1000 is high for any dog you buy. It isn't the dog it is the quality of care given to that dog you buy, is their parents in a kennel all day or part of the family. Mine are my family. You want a reg Morkie, I can work with you on a reasonable price. I have two male pups left. I probably want be raising hybrids anymore just because of this silly way of thinking. Mine are registered, by the way, Dad is akc, apri, dual reg, Edgewood bloodlines, Mom is APRI Maltese. History Yorkshire Terrier from 1915 The Yorkshire Terrier (also called a "Yorkie") originated in Yorkshire, a county in northern England (and the adjoining Lancashire).[3][5] In the mid-19th century, workers from Scotland came to Yorkshire in search of work and brought with them several different varieties of small terriers. Breeding of the Yorkshire Terrier was "principally accomplished by the people—mostly operatives in cotton and woollen mills—in the counties of Yorkshire and Lancashire."[6] Details are scarce. Mrs A. Foster is quoted as saying in 1886, "If we consider that the mill operatives who originated the breed...were nearly all ignorant men, unaccustomed to imparting information for public use, we may see some reason why reliable facts have not been easily attained."[7] The breed comes from three different dogs, a male named Old Crab, a female named Kitty, and another female whose name is not known.[8] The Paisley Terrier, a smaller version of the Skye Terrier that was bred for a beautiful long silky coat, also figured into the early dogs. Some authorities believed that the Maltese was used as well.[9] "They were all originally bred from Scotch Terriers (note: meaning dogs from Scotland, not today's Scottish Terrier) and shown as such...the name Yorkshire Terrier was given to them on account of their being improved so much in Yorkshire."[7] Yorkshire Terriers were shown in a dog show category (class) at the time called "Rough and Broken-coated, Broken-haired Scotch and Yorkshire Terriers". Hugh Dalziel, writing in 1878, says that "the classification of these dogs at shows and in the Kennel Club Stud Book is confusing and absurd" in lumping together these different types.[10] In the early days of the breed, "almost anything in the shape of a Terrier having a long coat with blue on the body and fawn or silver coloured head and legs, with tail docked and ears trimmed, was received and admired as a Yorkshire Terrier".[6] But in the late 1860s, a popular Paisley type Yorkshire Terrier show dog named Huddersfield Ben, owned by a woman living in Yorkshire, Mary Ann Foster, was seen at dog shows throughout Great Britain, and defined the breed type for the Yorkshire Terrier.[11] |
