As far as adopting goes, that was the first place I looked, I did find a beautiful 6-8 year old yorkie in a shelter that I posted a thread about a couple months ago, but she was adopted soon after, I have no problem with adopting from a shelter, but being out in the boondocks, its kind of hard to find a certain breed. And I have noticed that some of the shelters or rescues are quite expensive to adopt from. I found a yorkie on petfinder that the adoption fee was around $400... I know it may sound silly put if I'm going to pay that much, I'd rather get a puppy. Anyway, thanks everyone for your advice, I'll probably go with the pure bread, since I've already seen her and held her and fell in love with her. I'm just a little worried about the coat. And thanks for posting pictures, they are all so adorable!
The fist picture is of the pure breads at about 7 weeks? She'll be 8.5 weeks when I get her. She had a little white star on her chest, which I think I read had something to do with what her coat will be like? And the second picture is of the yorkie poos. And I dont want you to get the wrong idea of the breeders. They are really good with their puppies, even if they do mix breeding, which I know is frowned upon by a lot of people. But I love muts, we adopted a Sheltie/Pomeranian from a shelter, I couldn't ask for a better dog. And If i could find a yorkie or yorkie mix that I liked I would adopt it too...I would actually rather adopt one. |
