Which breeder is better? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Ladyvixie · 01-07-2009, 06:10 PM

I've narrowed down my possible yorkie breeders to three choices. All of which are in driving distance of me.

Goldiesyorkies.com
shalomalovespuppies.com (offers a yorkie/maltese mix)
southeasttexasyorkies.com

Which one is most recommended for price/ health of puppies? Does anyone have any reviews from pups bought from here? Trying to make a good descion for good quality puppies. What do you think???

I know several people on YT have bought puppies from Southeasttexas yorkies and they were very satisfied. You can probably find some good reviews on them in the 'Review' section. I know they are very knowledgeable about Yorkies. I am not familiar with the other breeders. Best of luck to you and be sure to come back and share pictures after you get your baby.

GoldiesYorkies.com:

I would never buy a puppy from them. They use the word teacup way to many times, it seems to be all about the sale, and all of their females are 3lbs and under!!

shalomalovespuppies.com:

Again I would never buy a puppy from them. They give you very little information, they don't even have any pictures of their adults and they are giving out false information. Mix breeds as with any breed can have health problems but according to their site, mix breeds are always healthy.

southeasttexasyorkies.com:

I myself would buy a puppy from them. I have heard nothing but great things about them. They have a lot of information on their site and have good breeding ethics. I have looked at their site many times and would love to have a puppy from them. My only complaint or concern is that they have a kennel. I like to see dogs that are raised in a home with the family. However I have seen some wonderful kennels where I would consider their dogs very loved and spoiled so I guess you can't always go by that factor alone.

I think the OP is referring to SET Yorkies that is a member on here. I haven't seen her postings lately. Is she still here? She was very well informed and thoughtful about her breeding. I think she runs a small boarding kennel and I don't see anything objectionable at all about that. If you're driving distance to her, by all means go there!

i would take my time and go to see all of them before making a decision ..if they are within driving distance..i am sure u will see which is the better one very quickly when u arrive

I wouldn't even consider the other too...waaaaay too many red flags there.

Thanks so much everyone! I was leaning towards SET yorkies because they seem to have very through information on their site. Thanks for confirming that for me ... and I'll be sure to post pics when I get my yorkies ^.^
