I've had yorkshires for over 20 yrs. Breeding to impove and keeping from my own line I started with.. My pups range in size from 2# to 10# as adults.. Most stay in the 4-7# range.. I don't like to see tinny yorkies going to families with children.. They should be in an adult home only.. They are just too frail.. I feel a much nicer dog is the one 5-7# as they are most likly to have a stronger constitution. I've only had one with a little low blood sugar and that's Bumbie.. Tinny tea's as they call them should not be reg at all.. or only with limited reg as there are idiots out there that will try to breed them.. I get those calls numerous times a yr.. Wanting to breed their tinny female to one of my males.. I don't breed out side dogs as I bought my males for my own use to improve my dogs and don't want to expose my dogs to any out side crap!. As to all yorkies having baby doll faces is not true.. I see those long nosed ones all the time the head is out of balance with the nose being too long.. More like a Silky T. I like the face to be balanced and that's what I breed for.. I don't like the faces too short and people that breed that run into bad bites.. I breed the total dog as to teeth health and longevity and personalities.. I do not like hyper dogs.. I would not have one if they were like that.. I have 11 right now and 2 are neutered males that are the great grand sire and sire and grand son Bumbie. All the same line ranging in age from 3 to 16yrs old. If a breeder can give you back ground info as to these things it's worth the extra money to me as to pricing.. If you ask about the health of the parents and they don't know.. You could be letting yourself in for a long and hard lesson and many vet bills to keep your baby alive.

Anyone having more than one breed that is selling pups is a MILL..You can spend your life as I have on one breed and still see things you'd like to add to your line.. I don't asked anymore for a 3# dog than a larger one as the 3# dog will alway be a special care dogs do to it's size.

The most fun dogs are the larger ones as they can play rough house with kids and have a more normal life. My pricing is from 800 to 2000.00 for a breeding size female.. All others are sold limited AKC reg.. pet only..
