Hoping to mend a broken heart

Sorry about Pumpkin.

Sounds like you might be a wonderful person for a rescue, please consider one.

Pet finder, pet harbor are good too.

I got my Cali from a lady in Kansas City M. Is that too far for you? She mostly shows but does place some of her Yorkies with considerable care, but she is a quality (not quantity) breeder. PM me if this is close enough for you and you are interested in her, and hope your search is successful and you end up with your dream fur baby

I know she shows in OK so she may know someone, also.

Sorry for your loss. We went thru that last July. Took us almost 6 mos to be ready for another Yorkie.

We decided that we wanted a rescue. 2-3 mos of scouring petfinder.com (nationwide shelter listings) paid off by finding Andy. We love him dearly!

My hope is to find a well bred - healthy baby girl in driving distance from Tulsa.

I don't need a champion bloodline just a healthy girl.

Thanks for listening. ~ Cindy

Just sent you a PM..

YorkieUSA -

I checked out the rescues. I think my heart is set on a pup this time and the one I found was from a puppy mill with a $650. adoption fee.

Appreciate the help, thanks.

Don't give up and buy from a puppy mill. I don't think you would be happy with the result. If you can find anyone who belongs to an AKC breed club or even an all breed club those people can usually point you in the direction of some better breeders. I went to the AKC website but didn't see much listed for your state but maybe one of the near by states would have a contact person. Don't buy a dog just because it is akc. Look for someone involved in the breed or conformation clubs. You may have to drive farther than you like but I think it would be well worth your while.

One dog we purchased quite a while back we drove a couple of hundred miles for and then spent the night in a hotel before driving home again. He was worth the weekend it took to get him and was the family dog when my kids were young.
