We drove back to pick Zhoie Bella up at 12 weeks, but believe me they do need that time with their mama and other litter mates to learn proper mouthing and socialization etc. My girl is low keyed and very well mannered and I do credit it to the excellent breeder and the training techniques she used. I too have had dogs all my life and I must caution you, this breed unique little ones, high maintenance and require alot of care, attention and vet care which in turn means...expense. Just want you to be prepared for that if this is the breeder you have your heart set on getting. Good Luck and Congrats!! If I can offer you any advise, call on me. I'm still learning too, as I go along.   |
Okay sounds encouraging. I think maybe when the family goes up to see her next week when will be able to see her in person she will probably look more normal to me. Thank you for the warm wishes and the wisdom. I greatly appreciate it. Also I am prepared for the cost and she is deffinatley going to be well taken care of. The reason I didnt want too OD on price is because she's going to be a pet not a show dog. Some people have accused me of obviously being ignorant and such but it's not that I dont know anything I was just courious what they typically look like at that age. I have been researching yorkies for about 7 years now so alot of the condecending things others are saying I'm familiar with its just the little things like coat and such that isnt typically something you pick up from book knowledge ya know? but thanks so much for your help this has helped alot =) I will deffinatley call on you! haha I will probably run into alot of things.

i agree with other posters, do your research and check out this breeder and don't breed the dog until you have researched every detail and have a reputable breeder there to help you through your first experience with it. |
Okay thanks so much it sounds like everyone else has been saying that too. Yes I deffinatley wont make an uninformed descion when it comes to the life of my dog and anything that pertains to that. Thats why I joined this site to hopefully become more informed by people that are willing to share there knowledge and teach me a thing or too. Thanks again

Yeah thats the gut feeling I had that made me want to post on this site...haha wich I regret doing now. But yes it's just the dog in the first picture I absolutely fell in love with the dog in the second just doesnt look like the first dog I saw. I hope as I have said that when I see her it will be better since its not going to be a cell shot and it will be in the flesh.
