| My first suggestion is to hang around for awhile and get to know what qualities you need to look for in a breeder. There are breeders who are members listed under "Featured breeder" section. If you don't educate yourself you may end up with a Yorkie who has LP, Liver shunt, a huge Yorkie when told you will have a tiny one (nothing wrong with "teapots, though ), getting a puppy before it should leave its mamma, and many other things. It can be very costly to ignorant. Trust me I know. I got my Yorkies before joining YT and it has cost me thousands of dollars and continues to do so.

| Another thing----there are many, many rescue Yorkies available. It tends to be difficult, though, to pass all their specifications. But it's worth it if you can. I have a rescue Pommie that I love dearly. But he is another example of either a puppy mill or a byb. He is 9 mo. old and has grade 4 LP. Has to have surgery this summer that will cost around $3,500.
