I'm in Alabama and I looked for a reputable breeder in the state and they are hard to find. Try TyAva Yorkies. They are in Marrrietta(?) I think. They show yorkies and are excellent breeders, might be on the pricey side though. One of their yorkies was recently a winner in the AKC/Eukanuba show in Fl. Bettyanne (a yorkietalk member) got her yorkie from them and I would have too if I could have spent more than $1000 on a yorkie, but fiance said no. We found a good (not excellent) breeder from north Al and purchased Luca Dean for $675. He's the love of my life now!!! Really depends on how 'reputable' a breeder you are looking for. I am pleased to have a healthy 4.5 lb male yorkie with a great personality that I didn't have to pay $3000 for ... I wish you the same luck!
