I understand the desire to have a puppy and a tiny one... Had been looking for the right breeder for YEARS. The tiny pups are often the most desired ones by people looking to be tiny dog owners and the breeders hike up the price cus they know they can...as the purchasers will pay more, sadly. If price isn't an issue... the thing you have be sure about is that it's a reputable breeder if not then you open a whole can of problems. If that pup has health issues you'll have to be prepared to pay for helping him/her overcome and pay for wellness... Bad breeders (after monies have exchanged hands) will be out of your life and gone with the wind. Take the time to find a breeder that comes with "word of mouth"...other people recommending the health and lineage of their pups. It's to your best interest. A sick dog is VERY MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE than it's original fee. Look at the AKC, CKC, etc and speak with the people who frequent dog shows as they can be your word of mouth in finding a tiny yorkie...they're all a network of yorkie recommendations. They're a tight knit community and they all know who's got what and who's a questionable establishment. You have to do your homework. If you rush it because you've fallen for an adorable face on the internet you can be ruining your experience. Just fall in love with the breed, when you see a cute pic and do your homework so you CAN find a breeder that will give you the pup of your dreams. It happened to me...(years back when I was looking for a pomeranian pup). I waited 2 years for a 3 pound pup and finally one was born...and the breeder called me straight away. She was SO tiny! At her adult years she was 3 pounds wet and the light of my life...WELL worth the wait. Do your homework... Good luck Let us know what happens...
