| Looking to buy Yorkie in Iowa I'm looking for a cute, small female yorkie puppy in Iowa that isn't charging an arm and a leg for her. Please contact as soon as possible before my Hubby says NO way they are too expensive - but it's my inheritance and I've always wanted a puppy. Please contact me if you can help me. I live in Des Moines, but My husband works at John Deere in Waterloo and can pick up anywhere close to there also. |

| By the way, I'd always wanted a yorkie, but when I decided to buy one, hubby said no, way too expensive. A couple years later we lost our beloved 16 year old Cleo a Terrier Poodle Mix. Well to make a long story short, just to stop my crying, he went out alone to find me one, cost was no object, he just wanted to stop my crying. I got my 1st yorkie, not the most pleasant way, but my Anna "Our 25th Anniversary" is the love of my life. Yes, I got her the day after Cleo passed, on my 25th Anniversary.

| Thanks Thank you, I have already e-mailed her and waiting her reply. It says they may have puppies available so I will have to wait to hear. But thank you for posting a reply so quickly. I know of one little female not far from here but this person has no pictures or anything for me to look at and I find it very hard to say no to a puppy even if it isn't what I really want. This I believe is just a person that has bred her female and doesn't do it to improve them or to be sure that she is breeding for the best animal. Would you check it out or keep looking? I do not want another puppy like this last one I got that was suppose to be a shorky and she is just a shih tzu. The people that sold her to me talked me into her because at the time I could not afford the amount they were charging for their yorkies. I had to pay cash and meet them across from the airport one morning at 6 am cause they were flying another puppy out to new owners that morning and I assumed that my receipt was in the ziplock that had paper in it. They now say I said I didn't want a receipt. I'm not that stupid. The puppy who's name is Mia (and I love her to death) smelled like she had been sitting in her own feces and urine and it took 2 baths to even cover up that awful odor. I believe they are a puppy mill and they have a web site and have an ad in the paper every week. The lady also told me to watch out for ear mites which I did check on as soon as I got her home and I didn't see any but a few days later her ears were really dirty and I treated her for earmites for quite a while till the vet said she was all clear. So would you even try to check out this female this lady has? |

| As I tell all families looking for a new puppy, shop, shop, shop around. Don't buy the 1st one you see. Do your research, you're not only looking to adopt a puppy you are buying a relationship with the breeder. They should be available for you 7 x 24. Especially in the first few weeks when each new family is nervous and unsure of themselves. You need to feel comfortable and trust your breeder as well as bond with the puppy. You're puppy should come to you clean. A health guarantee, vaccination records, vet records, feeding instructions, house training instructions and everything else that you could think of.
