New to YT (but been "lurking" for a while now
) and was hoping to get some advice. I have always had a dog, but just one at a time. We have a 5 year old mini schnauzer who we love. My daughter is about to turn 13 and is in love with Yorkies and desperately wants one. We discussed it and researched the breed and thought it would be a good fit for our lifestyle. Daughter is old enough to help now, so having 2 dogs wouldn't be bad.
We've set a budget for the puppy purchase which I realize is on the low side, but that's as high as dh will go.
This is going to be a pet, so my main concerns are health and temperament. Found a breeder who I like- not a puppy mill, responsible, AKC registered, well-socialized, health guarantee, etc. She has 2 pups in our price range. She's selling them for less because one she isn't sure its ears are going to stand up and the other has a slight overbite. Should we go ahead and get one? I really like the look of the pointy ears. Anyone have a Yorkie with an overbite? Is it harmful in any way? Does the dog look really odd?
Thanks from a newbie in AL!
