I did tons and tons of research about owning a dog, but very little about yorkies.

I had actually settled on a westie but have always always LOVED yorkies the most. I just thought they were way out of my price range.

I did not know how stubborn they can be :P

Being new to dog buying (I come from a small town where you get your dog from your yard, a ditch, or a friend's dog has puppies and they need to get rid of them :P).

I almost fell for a TON of scams (you know the kind....I'll give you the dog but you need to pay shipping...). Fortunately, I am too savvy for that and when these people said they were in Texas and their e-mails traced back to overseas.....

I finally met a lady who had some puppies for sale for cheaper than I had seen. Two boys. Her e-mail headers traced back and she responded. She didn't want me to come to her house, though....she said for safety reasons (in case I was dangerous I guess).

So while I researched OWNING a dog, I had no idea, whatsoever, how to GET one. How to find a breeder in Austin, and what Yorkies were like.
