Yorkshire Terrier club of Canada - we have our National Specialty at the end of November. This would be a good thing to attend as many top show breeders will be there. www.cyta.ca Nov 28th in Mississauga - I don't have show addy yet it has not been posted In previous years it has been at the International Center near to Toronto airport aka Lester B Pearson.


I can recommend www.rigair.com that is Ilona and Tanyas website


Oz's Yorkshire Terriers Loretta Serafini - she is in Mississauga.


Durrer Yorkshire Terriers is out of town - Betty Ann Durrer she is about 1.5 to 2 hr drive away.


Pet Insurance I know for a fact Trupanion covers genetic defects and you definitely want an insurance that does. Many pet insurance sites will give you a quote on line so that you can get some sense of monthly costs. I highly advise pet insurance. You also want to be covered for accidents - be it a car accident or travelling by air bus or train.


In Toronto vet costs are quite high. But you have to weigh in factors such as convenience including location and their hours of operation there are more reasonable vets in different areas of the city.


$500-$600 for annual vet visits including bloodwork and heartworm meds is about right. Dentals are extra and will cost you anaesthesia and any tooth extractions. I suggest you factor in the costs and do do regular teeth brushing - some oral gel to avoid plaque buildup. In fact teeth health is one question you want to ask the breeder - teeth health is genetic and you want to know how her lines fair in that department.


If you are interested in going to the Nationals drop me a line - I will be there - possibly showing my veteran.
