I was given reference names of others who bought yorkies from them and all had only good things to say. I made the decision to purchase my baby. As anxious as I was to get her, they would not ship her to me until she reached a certain weight as they were concerned about her health and safety. When I finally received my baby, she was exactly as promised. I had her vet checked within a few days and was told she was very healthy, well cared for and surely came from a great breeder. I have recommended Beaufords to friends. A year after I got mine, a friend from here in FL, bought her yorkie from Beaufords...in fact, they have the same daddy. I would buy another yorkie from this breeder in a heart beat!

Why would you recommend a breeder when you have no idea how the the breeding dogs are kept, this is the sort of thing that enables puppy mills to continue.

Not to mention the motives of digging up an old thread just to highlight what a wonderful mill experience one had...or maybe drum up some new biz for good ole' Beaufords!
