| The first place in Bayside seems like a Back Yard Breeder, and the place your hubby likes is a Pet Store that gets their pups from Puppymills. I would stay FAR away from both |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | BIG to either of those places. 1st one - She has multiple breeds on that site and also sells mixed breeds. She isn't solely breeding yorkies nor is she particularly interested in maintaining the standard of any purebreed. The second is a pet store. Their puppies are gotten from puppy mills and you are supporting that industry if you purchase from them.

Donating YT 10K Club Member | There are no good pet stores. Because behind that cute puppy in the store...is a breeding pair stuck somewhere...being bred to death...to replace the cute puppy someone "rescued" from a pet store.

| Just wanted to add that its VERY hard to find a good breeder within the 5 boroughs. My sister actually got her puppy from a breeder on YT and we went on 4 planes in a matter of 6 hours to get her.
