APenichet, If you have your heart set on one of these dogs, then by all means buy it, and we will welcome you and your baby here on YT. We will even grieve with you, should something happen and it needs exensive vet care or worse.

For the most part this is a very nice group of people here, And many have bought their puppies from puppy mills and pet stores. I was just giving you some issues to think about.

1 you don't know the history of the dog
2 you have no idea where it came from
3 you don't even know if they are giving you the right paper work for the dog.

As long as you are aware of these things And you have no problem with it, then at least you're not going into it blind.

As for the house training issue, I commented on that in my very first post. Dogs do not choose to go outside on their own, they go out because we insist on it and they choose to please us. So unless the dog is totally stupid, or unless it is in the habit of pottying all over the house, you should be able to train it.

But be aware, Yorkies are famous for being difficult to train, (they are much better at training, than being trained) so if you're not a patient, laid back person a yorkie might not be your best choice.

I love my yorkies so much, I would love them if they were never trained and I had to tear out all of my carpet and put tile in every room.
