I would never go with a breeder who did not ask questions.
To most breeders my home would not be great for a yorkie, we have large dog, small children,unfenced yard...
but my breeder who I got Reggie and Kenzie from did take the chence of speaking with me and listened. She gave me the opportunity to explain why I was great for a yorkie.
I am home all the time, my standard poodle was borught up with toy poodles and is so gentle with the yorkies, he always shuffles his feet to make sure they are not going to stepped on. We have never had an incident with him and the yorkies. My children are aways supervised with the dogs (like my hand is on the dogs or him) plus when he is playing he is in a gated room adn the dogs have the free reign of the house, I would never leave them in there alone together, he is only a toddler and could fall on them. Our yard is not fenced in because we just moved in, but I have a large porch, that is gated in, the yorkies cannot get off and nothing can get on, it has a roof, so I do not worry about hawks or the sun burning them, plus they are never allowed outside with out supervision.
My breeder listened and allowed me to have 2 of her puppies (they are a year a part, we got one and loved him so much went back for another!)
My breeder was honest and said that she was not sure until she spoke with me many times on the phone and got a feel for me and my lifestlye and intentions for the pups.
So everyone my not fit the perfect profile but a breeder needs to go by their instincts. |
