I'm a bit confused by the statement I've bolded. Recommended placement for yorkie pups is 12 weeks at the minimum. Allowing pups to have have the minimum of 2 vaccinations. Innoculating pups prior to 8 weeks of age is supressing mother's immunities and making them more suseptible in contracting a dreaded disease. Therefore, keeping the pups until 12 weeks of age until the 2nd innoculation can be given would safeguard the pup. In addition give you the ability to monitor the pup and insure the new family & puppy would have a smooth and trouble free transition.

Well I only have 2 pups left. I had one girl that was really small so I waited until 12 weeks to give her up. I was sooo picky as to where she went because she was so small. I turned down 2 people! lol! My best friend of 18 years took her and I am sooo happy!! She bought another girl pup from me before that and came back for a second pup! I let her do payments on her. I'm so happy that the 2 pups get to grow up together. They are besties.

So the 2 pups that I have left are Tasha and Haylee. Haylee is more of a calm personality type of girl. She's sweet and just wants lovin all the time (which she gets haha). Tasha is more roudy and likes to play but loves to cuddle on someone when she's sleepy. Tasha sits now, it's so cute. She's great in the car too! Haylee's ears just finally went up. Tasha's ears are getting there so any day now. I'm getting attached more and more everyday to these girls. They're so precious and I want them all to have loving, forever homes. Thanks!!
I'm concerned about your statement I've highlighted in red. As Mardelin posted before you, yorkie puppies should not be placed until they are at least 12 weeks old. Very small ones should be held even longer. Is this not something that your mentor with 30+ years of breeding experience has explained to you?

You've not replied to some excellent questions that have been asked of you by other posters. May I ask why?
