I would never (ok, never say never but you know what I mean) want to buy another kennel raised dog again.

Even after the pups are born from outside kennels and brought into the house for the "so called socialization process", I've still only seen "inside kennel puppies still".

Now, I am NOT saying this is what ALL breeders do, thank goodness. I am only saying this from my own two personal experiences. I didnt feel there was enough time spent on the individual pups to "really socialize" them.

I want to be able to TRUST the breeder who knows all the traits of their puppies. Which one is outgoing and lively, which one is shy, dominant, lazy, etc. With the breeder knowing all about their babies, I feel they can best place the adoptee to the Yorkie pup.
