Someone who is going to pick that little baby up and make them feel loved seems like such an important part of this. I don't know how some of these places with several dogs can devote time to each puppy.
As for the swimming  I'd love for the dog to enjoy water but not a big deal if they don't. As I said we live on a lake and the grandparents have their dachshund who they put on our jetski and he goes around the lake. Yes that would be cool but not necessary 
I am finding a greater amount of people near me who are breeding yorkie's compared to Maltese. Maltese are just so few are far up here in New England. My search was originally for a full grown maltese at 4 pounds. But Im also realizing they change their looks significantly from puppy to adulthood in my opinion. I want a dog who keeps their puppy "look". |
Hi,
I have had 3 yorkies and I have to say none of mine kept their "puppy look", They change so much in appearance over time. Check out some of the members pages and their albums. Some have pictures of their yorkies at varies ages and you will see what I mean.
Good luck with what ever breed you decide on.
Let us know what you decide and post pictures when you get you furbaby.
