Sounds like you pretty well know what to look for so that you get a healthy little Yorkie. Here is some links that I have put together for someone who is going to purchase a little Yorkie. Most of it probably won't be new to you.

Before you purchase a little Yorkie, please read these links:

Buying a dog? Beware of breeder

Teacup Yorkies - Health Issues

Why You Shouldn't Buy a Puppy Online!

Prisoners of Greed - Puppy Mill List

Buying a Yorkie? READ THIS FIRST!

Yorkshire Terrier Club of America – Breeder Referrals

How much is a Yorkie puppy?

So be very careful. Do lots of research. Stay far away from pet stores and on-line breeders at all costs. Puppy mill operators have learned to talk the talk of good breeders. Their web sites are usually wonderful, alluring, and have positive feedback from supposed customers. Make sure that you ALWAYS are able to go to the breeder's home and see the environment that your furbaby has been raised in. It's worth the extra effort, time, and money. Remember that anyone may join YorkieTalk.......back-yard-breeders and puppy mill owners. Best wishes in your search. ~Joanne~
