Warning for Craigslist and Kijiji (and likely other sites):

As you might be looking for a new Yorkie:

Be aware of individuals who email to tell you they have a "free pet" for your "loving home." They will live elsewhere (Quebec, Alberta, Halifax in Canada) and claim that they need your name, address, nearest airport, and phone number. They will request a "minimal fee" for delivery but otherwise say they will give you a free puppy (Suzi, Max, or another name).

They will include FAKE photographs of Yorkie puppies, including photos with people.

Beware. They use multiple hotmail or other email accounts and usually reply to "Wanted" ads such as the following:


Interested in female Yorkie for her forever home. Prefer registered breeder who knows about Yorkshire Terriers but am happy to speak with owners.


**BEWARE** They are scammers trying to take advantage of loving hearts.
