Does anyone have info on this breeder in Florida?
 

Been looking all over at breeders, and reading reviews , but can't seem to find anything on this breeder.

From reading on their website, they screen other breeders, and have a network of breeders

Puppies for Sale - Florida Yorkie Breeders

We're looking to buy a Yorkie again, but having trouble finding where here in Florida

I would never buy a pup from these people after looking at the site. it seems like they are brokers rather than breeders. I would run..............

They are brokers, that's not good. Many of the dogs on that site are way off breed standard for Yorkies, and prices are double what you would pay an actual reputable breeder.

This link from the Yorkie Talk Library will give you some hints on how to pick a good breeder: http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/pup...uy-yorkie.html

Thank you !!


I was wondering why their prices were so high.


I been asking about a liter she just had, and been emailing this breeder, and she's been very helpful so far.


She emailed me last night saying she has a male that will be ready to pick up next week


teacup yorkies for sale in Georgia, Florida, AKC Yorkshire Terriers

I certainly wouldn't buy from that site at all. Too many things not right.

You could start by looking at the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America site to get breeder referrals (there are a lot in Florida):
The Yorkshire Terrier Club of America

The last link you posted is for Carter Yorkies in GA teacup yorkies for sale in Georgia, Florida, AKC Yorkshire Terriers

There is a ton of information on their site, much of it is good including AKC limited registration, declaring that the term teacup is and adjective and not a breed classification. What is their health guarantee, and do they do genetic testing on the parents? Hopefully they keep the pups until recommended 12 weeks. It is always best to see the pup and parents in person if possible. Even this breeder says to request photos that have your name and date on a piece of paper visible in the photo, to avoid internet scams.

One thing I would not do though is pay a deposit by their preferred method of Western union or Walmart money order; I'd send a cashiers check.

thanks for your input we have just left and are on our way to visit the pup if everything goes well we will pick him up tonight June 12 yesterday made 12 weeks


we have been heartbroken since the loss of our last Yorkie who was 14 and a half years old who passed about 3 to 4 months ago.

I will post pictures in the other part of the form tomorrow if we do get him tonight everything seems great with her and she's been a pleasure to work with so far she also gave me a couple of referrals which I called and I was able to talk to one other person who had a little last year and highly recommend her

Congratulations... hope all goes well. Can't wait to hear more about him and of course we love lots of pictures.

I can certainly understand your feeling of loss after losing your 14 yr old Yorkie. I'm sure the new little guy will bring much joy back into your lives.

I can't imagine ever "not" having one or more in my home.

Without even looking at the link I can tell you its not a reputable breeder. Reputable breeders do not use the word teacup.

The one from the teacup breeder will likely leave you with heart break again........

Thanks for all your input


We just got home with our pup, he did great for the 5 hours car ride home


We got his AKC papers, and his vet visits etc


He is home now !

Did you get him from Carter's in GA? I was going to purchase one from her but found a local breeder instead. Good luck with your new lil one...ENJOY!

Yes we did. We bought him to the get today, and they said he was a wonderful healthy puppy!

We're very happy with everything

He's a bundle of joy, just so much lovings

How old is yours ?

Meant to say we took him to the vet today

Mine is five weeks old tomorrow. He is coming from a local AKC breeder. I get to visit him every week (once) until he comes home. I was going to use Carter, but found her and she is within driving distance so I went with her. Mine is a boy too., How much does your weigh? You said he is twelve weeks old? So adorable, such a sweet face. ENJOY So glad Carter's worked out for you

He weighs 1.5lbs

I thought when she said he was ready 6/12, it was 12 weeks. I never asked , so I made the mistake with all the excitement and found out he's close to 9 weeks

I would have preferred to have him stay in the little a bit longer, and she actually said we could pick him up next weekend instead, but she was coming to Florida yesterday to Naples, we got to excited, told her to bring him down with her, and we would meet her
2-1/2 hours away off 75.

The vet told us today not to freak out about him a little younger, and that it's common to have a puppy pulled after 8 weeks. I did allot of research and knew all the questions to ask, and never asked if June 12th was 12 weeks, we assumed it

He is eating well, through out the day 6-8 times, and drinking well.

We weren't prepared for a pup yet, so I had no way to crate him last night bringing him home

3am after having him in a travel crate, I ran to walmart and bought a gate to gate the bathroom off. We set our alarm clock every 3 hours to wake up and make sure he was ok, and let him out.

Overall, my wife and I ended up last night with 3 hours sleep, checking on him all night

Ordered a more suitable crate for him today, bought him puppy toys, a Excersize den, all kinds of stuff.

Only hard part is when he whines, I jump up to run to him.

The vet suggested let him whine, but he's so precious, I jump everytime he does it at night

A few things I learned , Lisa was great with Carter Yorkies, the get said her health guarantee is something printed off the web, and not a typical health guarantee

The vet also mentioned the shot she dated on the writen grantee

Was not signed by a licensed by a vet. So she's re-starting his shots over 6/23 to 6/30

She dewormed him today, he just popped, and it looked like long worms came out. She wanted a sample, so I'm brining it to her Monday of the stool

Well sounds good, enjoy him. It sounds like he has you wrapped around his little paw..

Congrats ! Post pics when you get him, sounds like you are doing everything right!

Yeah, I think that worms are typical that's why they do it like three times while administering shots. Ask about the Lepto and is it safe for yorkies. I have been reading up on the shots some say go the three way shot instead of the five way shot which leaves out the Lepto. She raises her dogs on a working farm so she may have administered the shots herself. It's no big deal starting over. Mine will be coming home in three weeks. He's around 10 oz now at five weeks - the small one.

Thanks, that's helpful info

Yeh, she mentioned she raises them on a farm and she's been deworming him. But he may have them because of the surroundings he's been raised in

The vet also thought she have the pup her shot, she said it's now uncommon

I looked up the worm just now in his stool,and it's called round worm

I know she said she's been giving him deworming, but at this point, I'm only counting on where we started today with the vet.

I'm a little nervous about the round worms, but from what I'm reading online, their not uncommon

The main thing is the vet said he's healthy, and we started him today on his way to his puppy shots.

Because the papers by the breeder said his was given his first shot on 6/2 , which would have been a little over. 6 weeks, we had no proof. Because of his size, the vet would like to wait till 6/23 to 6/30 to not overload him with his shots.

I can hear ur excitement and love for this beautiful boy, good luck to you all for the future oh have you picked a name yet,,,, what about SONNY. Means my wee son lol xx

The Yorkshire Terrier Club of America who knows all things yorkie says puppies should not leave there mom until 12 weeks. This is because they are still learning from there moms until 12 weeks so puppies leaving there mom before 12 weeks can having bitting issues and socialization issues. Also good breeders don't let them go before 12 weeks and when a breeder is cutting corners with one thing you can bet they are with other things like the health and genetic testing and so on so you do have a chance of your pup developing genetic issues and they may not pop up until 2 years old. My vet told me there is no way for any vet to know the standard and what is best for every breed simply because there are to many.

Starting the shots over is a big deal it's over vaccinating and putting to much into your pups system. That is why when looking for a breeder you should make sure that a vet or vet tech is giving the shots and signing a record.

Wow, do you have anything positive to say?


Well, I didn;t wait till 12 weeks, and I'm sure a licesend vet after 8 years of school knows what she's talking about.


The first shot was given 6/2, so she's giving it the shot 6/30


Our first yorkie who passed away 3 months ago, we did no of these things, we went to a store , bought him, and he lived healthy for 14+ years just passing, so you can't say anything about any specific dog. You can only go by statics


I bought the dog, it's done now, let's enjoy it, and stop going back to What is recommended. I made a few mistakes, but I'm happy with dog, with the breeder, and happy to know it didn't come from a puppy mill this time

He is absolutely adorable. I know things came together quickly for you in the last couple days, but now that he is home just enjoy him.

You must be filled with joy having this little guy around, after having lost your precious 14 year old Yorkie.

I think you should start a new tread introducing your little guy in the General section now that you are no longer looking for a breeder. I would love to see more pictures of him, and what is his name? Hope you'll stick around and we will see this lil guy grow up on Yorkie Talk. As you can tell we are all passionate about Yorkies :D

Thanks !


I just posted a video of " Chester " , he looks like a little chestnut, lol, with his markings


I can't figure out how to post pics here. I belong to several forms, I have a 200 gallon alt water tank, scuba diving forms, boating forms, and never had this much issues with posting pics


It keeps saying the size limit is 200kb

Also yes, allot for the past several days. I took down a 60 gallon salt water tank, that I just started up last month, because I will not have the time needed for 2 salt water tanks, and a puppy.

I would just be happy to get some sleep , lol

Here are links to tutorials on posting and resizing photos that might help:

The video of Chester is so cute. He certainly looks happy and healthy and full of energy. Just keep on having fun.... you can always get some sleep later.

Happy Father's Day with your new lil boy:D

Thanks so much for the help! I should have figured they would use paint


I just posted some pics, OMG, he is just to die for, I could kiss that little face all day, lol
