Hi, this is my first post here.

We got our Yorkie from a pet store, but I wouldn't I would recommend it. We got Jasper when he was eight weeks old (now I know that is too early to be selling puppies) and it was a big ordeal. First of all, he was very weak when we got him. We weren't sure if he was going to be okay or not.. After a few days he was fine. He's perfectly healthy and hyper now at 14 weeks. Also if you can believe it, the store told us he was a girl... The pet store gave us a pink collar and blanket, and we picked out a girl name and bought girl doggy accessories before realizing after two days that he was a boy. For some reason, It never occurred to us to check. Anyways, we love him very much and he is adorable/playful. It's better off that he is a boy, because we have a male Miniature Schnauzer and I don't know how that would have worked out.
