From what I read this puppy is 450?? If so I can understand half for the deposit b/c its not much to start with ( not much for a yorkie is what I am saying ) I think you will be fine money-wise if she is located that close to you. I would tell you that I have a yorkie that I got at 7 weeks ( the breeder lied about her age ) I have 4 other yorkies that I got as puppies but, they were at least 12 weeks. It makes ALL the difference in their social skills. The puppy I got at 7 weeks will be 3 years old this Summer and she is very sweet, but kinda " slow " She just always looks lost. She is just now starting to get better. Anyway, good luck with this puppy and find out how old that puppy was in the picture....its defianlty younger than 7 weeks but, oh so adorable! What names are you thinking of?
P.S. I know buying is scary, I imported 3 show line yorkies from Canada, Had to drive almost 23 hours round trip to get to the Airport they flew into. With just 2 hours ( thats nothing ) between you I would encourge you to go play with her, put your eyes on her, and leave the deposit.
