i bought toby from the newspaper and he is an HEALTHY dog........ i swear he eats like a horse, sometimes i think i should make a saddle to go on him
hes a whopping 8 lbs........anyways, i of course did my homeowrk and looked around/ called SMANY places before i got toby.... i learned loads of what to look for by bieng a member here, so i made ana appointment to look at the puppy, and the breeder was teh right 'kind' he asked me questions he made sure that I knew about yorkies, i even called when toby had kennel cough and he gave me advice and asked me to keep him posted
this important thing is to be aware of exactly what kind of person you are getting the puppy from, a lot of people that advertise through the paper are possible back yard breeders, but not ALL of them are like that, there are those few (like toby's breeder) that really care about the yorkies
good luck
