| Just an update...as I was waiting for a reply from Sara, Emma's owner, I got a message from a lovely YT member whose breeder has a 5 1/2 month old girl a couple of hours north of me. So, who knows. However, I am choosing to look at the bright side of this - now I have a choice between two whereas before I didn't have anything to choose from! =) |

| I also wanted to say that I asked if our vet office had clients with yorkies so that I knew they were familiar with them. They have quite a few and some are breeders. That put my mind at ease. Hope this helps.

| Just saw this post...Sara seems like she's being honest. and Emma has an adorable little face. I would go meet her, and see for yourself how her enviroment is, how she acts, etc. make sure the seem healthy, not snappish, etc. also you might draw up something that states you will take her to your vet when you get home and have her checked out or ask to see her vet papers. I don't want you buying a sick little girl...(its just too heartbreaking) but she looks very healthy. Look luck and is she isnt the one, let me know. I know a few breeders from Indiana you could check with. |

| I take back what I said--worry about housebreaking later spring is not that far off. I just saw her pictures and she is soooooo adorable. I would at least go meet her and if it feels right..take her.. It is very possible mom didn't think it all thru getting a yorkie with a 2yr old. She looks healthy and I have had them with their ears down too and they are still adorable..if you are not planning on showing her or breeding her what difference does it make? It may be love at first site. I know if it were me I would have to go see...good luck.... |

| wow 7 FULL pages is a lot to read lol First off, Good Luck!! At first, after reading this, I thought SCAMMER... but if she offered to get a health guarantee... not so much.. I'd still be a little weary.. just to be on the safe side. When you go see Emma (who by the way is soo adorable, ears up OR down) take a look around the house.. make sure everything's OK.. that nothing "feels" out of place. Plus, you said that another YT member PMed you about a female.. so you always have a backup. Just in case Oh and there are quite a few time that yorkie ears won't stand up unless YOU help them by taping them up... but if it doesn't bother you.. then heck with it I personally think it makes them look like a puppy all their lives... and I LOVE puppies So anyway, GOOD LUCK!! I can't wait to see how it goes!

| Just posting an update... I was in contact with another YT member who thought their breeder had a female available. She was so cute! But, it turns out that the breeder has a deposit on her, and if for any reason that didn't work out, the breeder was going to keep her. Also, I haven't heard from Sara since yesterday early afternoon. I sent her an email but no reply yet. Hopefully she hasn't changed her mind too! I don't even know if we would be going to her house, or meeting somewhere halfway. That was a question I asked in my last email to her. If Emma (whose name would be changed as soon as I got her) doesn't work out, I'm going to stop looking for awhile. It's always the same cycle with me - I look and get some really good leads on puppies and then they don't work out. It's been going on for almost a year. I think I probably was asking too much, and I either need to change what I am looking for or save up a lot more money. I do thank everyone who has read and replied to this post. YorkieTalk is the best! |

i agree you do get what you pay for. Maybe you should just save money and see if you can buy a yorkie that is worth over $1000 (from a reputable breeder), so you know that the dog is healthy. I do believe, the cheaper they are, there might be something wrong. Be patient. | |

| I've seen very sickly looking yorkie pups for $5000 on up, so, I also agree, you can still find nice healthy puppies for $500 on up around here |

BANNED FOR NOT MAILING PRODUCTS PURCHASED | I'm so sad for you, cause I sure know how you feel, but PLEASE don't give up! If you give up, then you may pass up a baby that was meant to be! Everything happens for a reason, just keep your eyes and ears open, your baby is not far away, you will have HER soon!!! I just know it! Quote:
