Hi everyone! This is my first post. I am very excited about my recent purchase of a yorkie yesterday. I put a deposit on her, and cannot pick her up for another month. This didn't hit me until I left yesterday, but I walked into the house of the breeder and it was just a cloud of smoke. He must have smoked at least three cigarettes during the time I was there (about an hour) and I am wondering if this is going to negatively effect my puppy. I remember leaving there with red eyes from all the smoke, so I know it cannot be good for the dogs.

The parents of my yorkie looked fine and healthy (from their appearance at least) but I just don't want to have my dog be really sick or something 2 or 3 years down the line. Thanks for any and all input, I have been really worrying about this.
