Hello,

We are looking to add a yorkshire terrier puppy to our family.
I have contacted several breeders that are within 4-5 hours driving distance from me ( I live in Buffalo NY) and so far I haven't had any luck. I have all summer off so I was hoping to add a new puppy soon so I would be able to give all my attention to the newest addition.
The breeders that I have heard back from are having new litters this month and by the time the puppy is ready, It would be early/mid august. My summer ends last week of August and do not feel it would be fair to introduce a new puppy into the family when I cannot dedicate 100% of my time getting him/her familiarized with my family.

If anybody knows of reputable breeders who have puppies that are ready to go (12weeks old or so) I would really appreciate getting some info. I am not looking for teacup yorkies, or yorkies on the small side. I want a healthy, standard sized (more towards the 7lb range?), well tempered puppy that can spend his/her life with us.

I am willing to drive out up to 6 hours. I want to visit the breeder and see what the environment is like etc so i know im getting a puppy from a good breeder with good intentions.

Thank you very much!
