From one RI'er to another -- don't do it. There are some good breeders here in New England and it will save you a lot of heartache and money in the long run. Feel free to PM me if you want info.

ETA: the petstores here had price tags of $1800 last time I stopped in. That is not too much less than area breeders who have quality dogs. I'm sorry but if you dont want to spend that much on a dog, you should reconsider a yorkie. They have many breed issues and you could end up with a dog that needs costly care even if you go to a reputable breeder.
