| Yorkshire Terrier Pics I'm about to buy - what do you think? Hello, I am about to buy a yorkshire terrier. Here are some photos of him: http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g...Y021011M1d.jpg http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g...astaceak/e.jpg http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g...astaceak/d.jpg http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g...astaceak/c.jpg http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g...astaceak/b.jpg http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g...astaceak/a.jpg I am fairly new to buying yorkies and actually this will be my second dog. The first time I was burned by a breeder who sold me a mixed dog. So, I could use your opinions, does this yorkie look purebred? Does he look like a good choice? The breeder has AKC registration papers for him. What do you think? Thanks! |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | He is a cutie. Did you check the health gurantee the breeder gives? You can ask her what health testing she has done on her lines. There is a lot of info on here about picking the right breeder that would be helpful to you. Hopefully you will get a lot of good,positive advice.

| I think he's adorable! But you'd better be a heck of a lot more confident in the breeder before purchasing a pup from her.

| He's adorable! He looks like he'll be on the bigger side. Where did you find this breeder? Are they local and have you visited them in person? Good luck!

| He is very cute. I love the brown fringe around his ears. Buster had that and it was one of the reasons I fell in love with him. Ask the breeder if they have done any testing for hereditary issues. If not ask if the mother, father, or litters have had luxating patella, liver shunt, collapsed trachea, or other issues. California does have puppy lemon laws but it is very heart breaking when you have all ready fallen in love and your puppy gets sick. I wish you and this little cutie all the best.
