Personally, I think the ears on the first pup are just fine, the breeder has not trimmed the hair on them. Since you are looking for a pet only then I would try to select the girl that has the type of personality that would fit best in your household. You have received lots of other good advise so I won't go into all that. Good luck in getting the perfect baby to love. |
Well supposedly they all live in the house. She has a back yard with a privacy fence that they can run around in. Of course I will see if this is true Sunday. I have talked to her multiple times and will meet her tomorrow. I have seen pics of both mothers and the father. She also just said that the second one ears are up today. I do want a good breeder and it is soooo hard to find one!!! I really hope she turns out good. |
They are both precious. If they are also healthy I don't see how you can go wrong with whichever one you choose. I had two girls from two different litters to decide on when I got Kalina. I don't know why I picked Kalina but I'm glad I did. It's all about love anyway. Good luck! I can't wait to see which one you pick (if any!!) :) |

One pic of each is really not enough to make a good judgement on anyway. I just thought the first one's ear itself had a more rounded look to it (not just the hair sticking away from it) and seemed larger. Strange that she cut the face hair and left more hair on the ear tips. The second one, you can see the triangular shape of the ear tip. That is what I have been shown to look for and have seen in my own pup. My Ben had big-ish ears, although nicely triangular. His personality and build won me over regardless. I just made sure to get a female with small, dainty ears to compliment and all their puppies wound up with very nice ears. |
I love her little sweet face. Her ears are standing up nicely. How cute is that? |

I think lots of things are personal preference. Some may just be to your personal liking whether or not they are to standard or not. I did not let any of my puppies outside on the ground at all until they had all their shots. Which means some found new homes (at 12 - 16 weeks) before they had ever set foot in grass. I took them outside in a basket just to get fresh air and sunshine a few times. But several of the experienced, respected breeders here told me to be sure not to let them down on the ground. There are many things that can stay in the grass/earth for a long time and if the puppies have not completed all vaccines, they are susceptible. I only took them out for vet trips, never for pleasure trips until all shots were given. |
i think she is beautiful. Not show quality of course but you aren't looking for that anyway. I think she is just precious. |

Different mothers?? A good breeder has not more than 7-8 dogs. My breeder has only 4 dogs, we often meet and were almost a family now cause we are so close, we often go for a off-leash walk and she babysits Fido sometimes for me, that is what i call a good breeder. If this breeder has more than 8-10 dogs i cant imagine that she is a good breeder. No one can take good care of such a many dogs. |
I like the second one better. She looks just like Izzy. |
I think that they are both adorable! Like everyone has said, you will need to be sure of the breeder and all of that. That being said, I think that it will be more of the puppy choosing you! lol. Since you will be able to see both of them in their home, you can observe them and see how they are with each other and see which one bonds with you the most. Good luck on whichever one that chooses you...you can't go wrong with either one! |
I think they are both cute but I like the first one better. |

I must not have said that right. She only has 2 females she breeds and one male. She has another female that is retired and spayed. Both females had a litter of puppies a week apart and so there was 1 female in each litter. I'm sorry I didn't make that clear. Four adult dogs total is all she has. |

I just asked cause i know of one breeder near me who has around 200 dogs, every dog is non stop making more puppies and the bitches dont get to rest anything, i just wanted to make sure you were getting the puppie from a good breeder with few dogs :) I hope this breeder will be great and you will find a puppy who fits you! :) |

When it comes to personality, it is really hard to tell on a 8 week old pup. You can raise a whole litter identically and end up with a variety of personalities, just like when a person has children, they can all have different personalities. Usually at 8 weeks they are just starting to really explore and experience new things. Puppies can be really outgoing and comfortable in their small environment but if you take them out of their regular environment when they are very young then many of them will act scared. It takes time for them to gain their confidence. Also, some pups get picked on by their litter mates and I think that makes them feel less secure. |
love her coloring :D |
Of the two, I would choose the second one. I agree with another poster who said there is something about the face of the first one that I don't care for. |

Poor old girl has lived out her spunky days and needs help just to get taken out to potty now. But she has given us many, many happy years. AS long as they are healthy, and basically sound, I think we tend to "grow" them into the pet they become. |

Well that makes me fell better about the second one. She said she is more shy and meek. Maybe she would be more outgoing once she gets a little older and away from the other puppies. |

I think that they are both really cute. I think that you will just know, when you get to see them in person if one of them is meant to be yours:) Something will jump out at you, and if nothing does, or if it feels funny at all, there may be another puppy out there that is still waiting for you. Follow your heart. I don't think that you could go wrong either way, imo they are very pretty little puppies. |

I keep thinking "this is it" with Kate. But, then she pulls through. She still has her moments when you know she is happy. When my older sons visit, she even wags that poor crooked tail of hers. She cannot see much, is very hard of hearing, and has bad arthritis. But she keeps on ticking and still loves a belly rub. |

I always suggest that people find the best breeder they can find, and look at the parents carefully, choosing the actual puppy is easier once you find a breeder you believe in, because the puppy will choose you. :) |

Thank you everyone for your advice and opinions. I guess I will make a final decision after tomorrow and Sunday. I have had it brought to my attention though that neither look like they have a wet nose and this might mean they are unhealthy? Is this true????:confused: |
I did also see the dry little noses. I don't know if that means anything. Good luck with your visit tomorrow. |
I agree about the noses, it is nothing to worry about. I just felt my dogs noses and they don't feel wet and they are as healthy as can be.:) They just thought I was nuts. |
I think they are both cute, but I like the second one the best. You will know more once you actually spend time with them. Post pictures when you bring her home! :) |
I like the second one best. Again like the others, there is something about the first pup. Features seem a little sharp and I think the eyes are just a bit too far apart. The second one is more dainty, better coloring, just has that look you love in a baby Yorkie. She is darling. |
While the second one is ADorable I have this feeling the first one is Going to be a GORGEOUS adult. |
