Hi guys, new here and have registered since I am interested in owning a yorkie but I cannot find a reputable breeder around my area (new orleans, LA).

I tried a few breeders listing websites and classified ads (some are too far so I can't do a home visit while others have a lot of other breeds for sale besides yorkies).

I went to pet store to take a look but as I've read the guide about pet stores, I try not to buy from them cus they are expensive and could be from pet mills. I went into one since it was located in the mall and I was in there already the other day. They wanted $1500 for the small thing.

Not sure if I want one shipped to me.

Can you guys help me out?
