I really want to ask this question but I don't want to ruffle any feathers so please be general in your answers (not offending anyone) or pm me.

What do I look for in a breeder? I've begun to sense that the majority of YTers believe the Yorkies should be in the home and not in a kennel. But how do they have more than maybe 2 or 3 dogs in their home? Does that mean I should be looking for someone with say fewer than 6 dogs?

I'm really not trying to start a disagreement, I really want to know what I should be looking for. I guess I thought a breeder would have 10+ dogs & therefore would keep them in an outside kennel. I do understand that is not good for the breeding females or studs but how do they do it in their home ?Thanks.
