I've finally come to terms with the fact that I can handle yorkie #2! I'm looking to get a yorkie between 8 weeks and 6-7 months depending on the size. I would prefer that they have been exposed to larger dogs if they are older. I have an American Bulldog and my yorkie, Diva, was afraid of him for the first month because she wasn't exposed to the breeders labrador. I can do male or female.. Sex doesn't matter to me.. I'll be getting them under the knife either way.. I would like the breeder to really start pee pad training so I wouldn't mind getting a puppy at like 12 weeks. Diva wasn't started on pee pads and has been a pain in the butt to get her started.. But I ripped up my carpets and did Pergo so no biggy anymore.. I don't need a show puppy. The puppy can be from a hobby breeder as long as the background is known and references are available. Would prefer within driving distance of Altoona, PA. Now, my only problem is.. I can only afford $500-600. I don't need papers or anything. I would like to be informed of a litter as soon as they are born so I can put a deposit down (of like $150-300) and make payments until the puppy is ready. I know this may seem like a lot to ask, but I'll work with what is available. I'd also be willing to adopt an older puppy if it must be rehomed (but under 8 months old!). Just trying to browse my options now..
