| I can't decide which one I like the best. They are both so cute! I think you can pick a puppy by its picture though. I had Missy picked out through pictures before I went to see the litter (lucky me, I got first pick). Missy was my favourite personality-wise when I met the puppies too. She just stood out to me.

| Why do you have to pick now? They're too young to take home yet, anyhow. Why not ask the seller to wait until you can get there? This little pooch will be your companion for many, many years, so there should be no rush, IMO. One of them will speak straight to your heart in person, I'll bet...

| I will definitely make the trip before I pick her up next month. It's so hard to choose right now like everyone said. At this stage their personalities are barely showing and for me that is a big part of my decision. OYE! Thanks for all the help guys! When she sends more pics I will be sure to post them. A video would definitely be a great idea!! |

| I'd take either of them! They are both so cute. You might try this: take the puppy, put it's lower paws in your hands and then look to see what it's abdomen looks like: does it have an striations (folds of skin running up and down) this might mean the puppy has a hernia. Don't get the puppy with the hernia, get the one without! Callie |

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | They are both precious and both little sweeties, but I think I would personally pick puppy #2 I have to say though, in all honesty, they really do look alot alike

| .......... OK, I think that they are both cute....... & maybe a little more coaxing is needed on the hubby. Let HIM look at those cute little faces and have to pick just ONE!!!!!! ...... I think that they would make a wonderful ensemble!!!

| If, for some reason you cannot physically see the puppies, I'd be very cautious. You need to see how they react with you. Do you like a mellow, loving puppy or the more rambunctious baby? I searched for 6 months for my Jezebel & what I saw out there was amazing. I can't tell you how many homes that I have walked away from. I saw Yorkies with a wire hair coat (NOT!). I did see some beautiful puppies living in disgusting conditions & had never been handled, so you’ll have a shivering, cowering mess. You never know, you can be purchasing a puppy mill dog. I suggest you go local. It can even be advertised as family raised, but when you react with the puppy, you can see if it has been socialized. They can take the litter from the puppy mill, bring them to their home & say, "Family Raised". A socialized puppy will interact with you, where one that is not & the puppy is bred just for the $ & the dog is not maintained, handled, trained, or loved. I have beautiful babies that I tend to 24/7. They are well adjusted & so loved. Many call me back to purchase another baby. Just be careful buying sight unseen & no interaction. You never know what you are going to get! Looking at the photos, ... #2 for sure! J & the Girls, Jazmine, Jezebel, Little Bit, & Je Nae (new Puppy) |

| Thanks to everyone who replied. As promised I have an update for you. I am going to see the puppies in person in 2 weeks and am going to try to make a decision then. The other lady decided to go with a puppy from another littler so there is no pressure on me to decide now. The breeder is WONDERFUL (she is Nolens Yorkies, I dont remember her YT username) and is helping me meet all my needs even before I know I need them. Based on the looks from the pictures I would say 2 myself but she sent me about 12 pictures more and number 1 is definately cuter and more outgoing in those pictures (sitting straight up and alert versus laying flat). We talked about personality and we feel like number one is better for me based on personality and body composition. I am not going to make a decision until I meet the babies in 2 weeks and hopefully I will come back with the picture of the baby I choose. Thanks again! |
