Go to the AKC website and do a conformation and breed club search for your state and/or a nearby state. These clubs can put you in touch with reputable breeders. Stay away from the backyard breeders and puppy mills. You are just asking for problems. Check out the breeder and the conditions the dogs are raised under. You will pay more than $400.00 for a good puppy but it is an investment that you will derive benefits from for many years to come. |
400.00 is not a lot of money for a Yorkie. I've seen rescue pups up to 925.00!!!
