| Please give me your advice! Hi all, As some of you know, I have been searching for a dog, and posting way too many threads I am sure, but this is serious, lol. Okay, I have been checking on this site for probably a month now and asking all kinds of questions. Well, there is only one puppy left and I think I might get it! It is $900 which is a little more than I had hoped for but the best I can find. She lets her puppies go after 10 weeks, which is also better than the 6-weekers I've found. She has answered all my questions and has a photo album on her page with pics and comments from past customers. I am impressed but I can also be foolish so please give me your opinion on this. $900 is too much to waste so I want to be sure. She also gives a 1 year health guarantee. http://www.honeycreekkennel.com/index.html The only thing I don't like is she breeds 2 other breeds, but they are also small breeds so that has to be better than the ones that breed 7 diff. kinds of all sizes. Thanks, I really appreciate any help! Sarah

| If I were looking for a pet quality yorkie, I wouldn't purchase this one. For $900, its APR registered. I don't like the breeding of three different types of dogs either. Of course, this is just my opinion and what I would do. Good luck.

| This may be a stupid question, but what is APR registered?

| hmmmmm I wonder why she is not AKC? She has very cute puppies, but I think all puppies are cute. Did you go see the puppies? I think we need the advice form some of our great YT Breeders. I hope they catch your post.

I don't think there are any stupid questions. If you don't ask, you will never find answers. I have no idea what APR is.... hmmmmmmmmmm Good Question!

| I think the baby is beautiful. Her weight will be a good weight...not to big...not to small. If you like the breeder and she has answered all of your questions, she should be fine. I know several breeders who breed more than just one breed of small dogs. $900.00 is not a bad price. You just have to feel good about it. Again, the baby on the site is adorable!!! Joy |

| Hmm, maybe it stands for...American Pet Registry or something? That is just my guess, but I still don't know what it all means..

| I was hoping not to travel more than 3-4 hours, because I dont want the puppy to be too stressed out on the way home. I think Kansas would probably be about 6 hours away.

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Hi Sarah - the thing I didn't like was multiple breeds...but what I DID like is that she didn't have many puppies - she listed each puppy and only had a few - if there were many yorkies I'd be more leery - I tried to do a BBB search but the site is down.....To me I think it's worth a look and you may just have found your puppy - I know how hard you've been looking I would go look if you are just wanting a puppy to love and not worried about papers - The puppies were very cute and looked hpapy in their pictures and if she's working with you and answering all your questions - go see the puppy !! |

| I was thinking the same thing about her only having a couple puppies. She has a little section about how to take care of a puppy too, so this made me feel like she cared about them...I think this might be the one, yay! ttyl! Sarah

| I forgot to say that I did a search a couple days ago on the BBB and ripoff report and she wasn't on there! So that's a good sign.
