[QUOTE=missgin;2019339]Nala passed away 4/23/08, it's been a little over a month. Before I used to just cry. I know it's silly, I've only had her for less than two weeks..but I was so happy to have her in my life. I'm alright now, but I'll never forget her. She'll always be my first puppy. I've been talking to breeders and searching for the right puppy.


I'm sorry about your Nala. PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM A PETSTORE OR A BROKER. They get their dogs from Puppy mills. Puppy mills are commercial breeders that breed upward sometimes of 500 dogs and they all live in little wire cages. They are not vetted and are often very ill as is the puppies they produce (Example your Nala). These adult dogs live terrible lives with no contact, never getting out of their tiny wire cages, no vetting, no clean water and barely enough food to sustain. Try Petfinder.com: Adopt a pet and help an animal shelter rescue a puppy or kitten. and think about adopting. You can get a pup from rescue in most cases for around $400 and that will include the spay / neuter, shots and vetting. You can also try a yorkie rescue. If you are set on going to a breeder please check them out thoroughly. Make sure the house is clean, the parents can be seen and are cared for. Ask for references etc. AND DO NOT BUY OFF THE INTERNET. You can probably find a nice Yorkie here on YT. Ask around though and make sure that who you are dealing with is reputable. Best of luck to you. Elaine
