[QUOTE=Prissy012899]My thoughts exactly.
My suggestion would be to find a local breeder, go visit their house, see the parents of the puppies, what kind of environment they live in, How well socialized the pups are... then you know more and will feel good about it.QUOTE]

I totally agree with this.
If your scared of scams and shipping then i would also suggest you find a local breeder (It's not that hard). I got my Yorkie's from different breeders because i wasn't impressed with the way my first breeder treated me (plus she lived 5 hours away so i didn't have time to visit). My second breeder is amazing and only a 45 min drive away. I go and see Bella (my new addition as of Oct 21st) weekly, so when i pick her up to come home for the first time she will know me and be a little less stressed out. That's also a plus with finding a local breeder because you can visit your pup usually whenever you want, your more re-ashured with the whole purchasing and money thing and you become more comfortable with your breeder because you can put a name to the face.
Good Luck.
