I got my first yorkie at 8 wks 13 years ago from an inexperienced breeeder - I would not do that again!! I was very overwhelmed. Thankfully, I went to a specialty show, found an experienced show breeder who gave me advice on how to raise such a tiny baby. This second yorkie I got when she was 18 mo old from the show breeder who had helped me years ago. I would wait at least to 12 wks - I agree, it helps with socialization. |
