Hello All,
I live in suburban Atlanta and am looking for a female Yorkie Pup. This Yorkie would be for a pet - not for for showing, although I want to leave the possibility open of this dog having a litter or two of pups with my current Yorkie, who is a very sweet and adorable 7 year old, 6 lb male.
I am certainly willing to drive a 1 day's drive from NW Metro Atlanta to pick up my new baby (basically, Georgia, and parts of Alabama, N.C., S.C., Tenn or N. Florida). However, I was really hoping to get a healthy, good-natured and cute pet-level little girl somewhere in the general ballpark of $1,000, and I would want to see the environment in which the dog was reared (not even REMOTELY interested in anything that even has the faintest whiff of 'puppy mill' attached - been there, done that, and got a VERY expensive and vet-intensive teeshirt with a Cocker Spaniel...who I don't think was entirely healthy during the entire 13 years of her life). I also must insist upon AKC papers at the time of purchase - none of this "I lost them but will send them to you in the mail". (have that teeshirt too
).
About me: I am a lifetime dog owner and two-time Yorkie owner - this would be my third Yorkie. I work for a large corporation, but work at home so this dog would not be left alone all day - she would have both me and my existing Yorkie to keep her company. I own my own home with plenty of room, and I've been taking my dogs to the same vet for the 14 years I've lived in Atlanta.
I am also patient and willing to wait for the right dog - I do not need to have this dog tomorrow, but I would like to get a little pal for my existing dog within the next 6 months or so. And certainly, sooner would be better than later.
If any of the breeders here think they might have a dog who would fit the bill, please contact me in this thread (preferable for first contact since I am wary of puppy farmer lurkers and figure anyone who would post publically would be known to the reputable breeders here
) and provide contact information.
Thanks very much for your consideration and any assistance you might be able to provide.
