Love Walker Kennel I'm new to this forum but after reading this string of comments I felt compelled to sign up and post a response. We purchased our yorkie baby from Walker Kennels three years ago and Baylee has been a happy and healthy addition to our home ever since. She has had zero medical problems and she's spot on in personality for yorkies. I've visited Walker Kennel and it is NOT a puppy mill. Just because a puppy is not raised in a home does not make a kennel a puppy mill. Professional breeders and home breeders are doing the same things - selling puppies - and this string seems a little judgmental. Walker Kennel appeared to love all their dogs and all of them were well cared for and I found the family running the kennel extremely helpful with questions/concerns I had. As we all know, caring for a baby yorkie can be hard when they are small and WK was great about giving me instructions on how to handle our new baby. Yes, they do sell other breeds. They are breeders. They are not home breeders so the puppies are not sitting in a living room. That does not mean they are loved any less. In fact, I beleive that WK are better breeders than most because they have so much experience as well as a name and reputation to maintain. I'd recommend WK 100%, we are actually planning on purchasing our second from them in the next few months.
I hope you did end up getting your pup and hope things worked out! |
