Biewerlover I agree with much of what you say. I will only adopt a Yorkie from a place I can physically visit myself. I have to see breeding conditions, Sire, Dam, more relatives..... even better.
The (very small) local breeder I got my little Mango from is private, will not have a website, sells by word of mouth and does not advertise in the paper. His animals are beautiful, well socialized and live in spotless domestic conditions. He does not ship, and will not sell to anyone he does not meet first. He has been breeding Yorkies this way for 20 years. His "brood" are all AKC registered. He does not inbreed and on occasion, will use a Sire from another breeder. |
