Sorry for your loss Mollysmom. I too lost my dear little one just recently and can't bear the emptiness without her. She had medical problems too so we were also very attached to each other. Princess was, and is still, constantly on my mind. I live with my elderly Mom and she and I have already decided to get another pup as we can't handle not having a little friend here to love. It certainly won't replace our Prin but I'm sure she will have a special place in our heart too as time goes by. We're from Alberta so I can't help you with breeders. I'm getting mine from a lady 2 hrs away and this is only her 2nd litter. Our Princess was rescued off the street and was already 4 when I found her. She was a challenge medically but in every other way she was just a perfect best friend. Both Princess and the new pup are silky terriers.

Hey there,
So sorry about your loss. I got my yorkie through a great rescue located in the Mississauga area of Ontario. There are certainly lots of good breeders around, but unfortunately my girl did not come from one. Although I have had no real health concerns, I wouldn't recommend her breeder as she did end up in rescue when her original owner had a life altering event, the breeder wouldn't take her back to re-home. A sin as far as I'm concerned...but certainly my lucky day, because she is the greatest dog!! My first thought would be to start with the Dogs in Canada website, and check out the individual breeders listed. Although I can't remember the name off the top of my head, my girl was bred in Orangeville Ontario, with a breeder whose web site looks pretty good...so after you have checked them out, and checked them out again...I would post once more to see if anyone has heard either good or bad about them. There are a few Ontarians on the site, so they might help you screen possible candidates. If you are interested in going the rescue route...I recommend Happy Tails rescue out of Mississauga...I know the people involved personally, and they not only really care that the dogs get a great home...they are up front and honest with you about the background of all their dogs...to the best of their knowledge...and if it doesn't work out, insist that you bring the dogs back to them. As in most rescue, sometimes the dogs are older and have medical issues...and sometimes, through no fault of their own, they are put into rescue, due to family break-up or other unforseen circumstances.

Good luck which ever route you choose. I know Muffin will keep a paw in, and lead the right dog to you at the right time!

Thanks everyone for your thoughts, I know a new little one will never replace my Molly, but I am going to start looking for a new baby soon!

Sugar967 · 03-12-2011, 04:15 PM

Yes, she is in business because I considered buying from her just a few months ago when I got my little guy before buying him else where - I never actually met with her.

Mollysmom411999 · 03-12-2011, 04:28 PM

Sorry, who were you referring to as still being in business?

Sugar967 · 03-12-2011, 04:37 PM

LOL, I'm brand new here so I did not realize that my message would fail to be posted directly under the comment I read before

It was in regards to the Donna breeder who didn't return the money after the beautiful pup died 27 days after coming home

((
& my word Molly'smom - I am so sorry to hear about yours

HUGE hug.

Mollysmom411999 · 03-12-2011, 04:55 PM

Thankyou, it is still real hard to think about my life without her, I miss her every minute of the day! There will never be another MOLLY muffin for sure......I did find an awesome breeder in Ajax, Vickilyn Yorkies, and will be getting a baby girl at the end of May, beginning of June. It sure is not a replacement but another baby girl to share my life with. She is a good friend it turned out of my dog's groomer.One of the girls on YT gave me her name as she has a boy from her too. Again thanks for the hug.......
