You have all helped me so much! I have learned so much about how to know if I have the right breeder for me, training tips, health information and even fantastic sales on doggy items! Some of you may know, I was expecting to bring home a Yorkie baby the end of May... I'm sorry to say that I was second on the list with my breeder and my puppy did not make it. I have learned from this site that for myself, I really need to get my puppy from someone that I believe considers what is best for dogs and their puppies for the long term no matter the price or size of the dog. I signed agreements for the care and safety of my rescue pets and my breeder expects the same of her puppies. All of you have shared your opinions and experiences with breeders and health issues and you have all helped to educate me about Yorkies and their needs. Stacy also helped me realize how lucky I truly am to have a breeder who cares so much for her dogs. So, I am going to wait on my breeder as long as I need to...and if that doesn't work out, I guess the old minivan will have to make it to PA!
I just needed to thank you all... I don't know about the rest of the country, but finding someone here who isn't so quick to get my Credit Card number before asking me some nosey questions is sooo rare... Out of grief the other day, I emailed or called every puppy owner I could find in my area (in the newspaper or on the internet...) and not one asked ME any questions about my family or home I would provide for the puppy. Three of them asked if I could bring CASH that afternoon...
Thank you also to all of the breeders who sweat it out and are careful with their babies.

PS, I'm not drunk, even though today is a holiday....I'm just feeling out loud.
