My yorkie was house trained at about 10 weeks. This was with no crate training. She slept by my neck and woke me up to go outside as she wouldn't just down off the bed. A good breeding means an excellent dog. Not from someone who buys a female and a male and breeds them with no investigation into their pedigrees and health records. Only reputable breeders take careful condiseration of both the female and the male they are breeding. They will also take back (and pay back) any Yorkie that doesn't work out for any reason. |

You are incorrect about the parti not being eligible for AKC registration.
I am happy that you found a breeder that you trust and one that trusted you with, what you say, is a show quailty dog AND let you take it before 12 weeks.
