Bogey was older too, around a year and he's the best little guy

If you go into the Showing Forums you can see some of her's that are being shown now. They are absolutely beautiful.

I saw her website and she has truly beautiful Yorkies. I will highly consider her, problem is I wont be ready until about mid May.

Just read her whole site, beautiful pups, and down to earth too! No red flags and I do recall seeing positive things about her back in my lurking days.

Airfare can be very cheap, seriously and 8 months is not too old, honestly!

I was toying with getting a pup from Breny on here but some other lucky person got (RiO) the pup...I'm still toying with it for the future.

I hope you find your pup soon! Your close, very close!

I just want the puppy to be able to bond with me and get attached which I hope 8 months wouldn't be too old!

Believe me 8 mos is still verrrrrry much a puppy and bonding will happen I guarantee within 48 hours of one on one time. I've taken so many dogs in over the years that were going to be put to sleep, one was CJ 2 yrs old bonded with all of us, Wibbles 9 years old, Shine 7 yrs old, Lambda, and Moon, dear goodness I am tearing up typing their names, they were loved and very much bonded with my family and I. Everytime I thought I couldn't love another more than this one...another one came along!

Puppies and dogs are like little people, 8 months or 8 years, Nicole you won't be sorry.

Yorkies love to bond. 8 months is still a baby. My 12 year olds bond with strangers in like 5 mins. Seriously, this isn't something to worry about coming from a reputable show breeder who has held back the dog for showing.

I don't know if she would be able to even hold the pup for me until May when I could get her. It might just be cheaper to fly there and then come back a few hours later.

Lol, sooo true I think my 7 yr old Miss Mini was ready to pack her bowls and toys move in with a friend of mine that stopped by the other day, by the time she left I was a tad jealous, especially when Mini stayed in the window watching her leave, it was love at first site...I did win her over shortly after by sharing a taste of my peanut butter sandwich!!!!

I adopted a 5 year old.... 8 months to bond but we did it! He just had some issues to overcome from being with inexperienced owners and then at the Humane Society... he just wasn't ready to trust another human with his heart until I proved myself to him.

The two that came from breeders were no problem at all, having been raised and cared for by people who loved them... just a week or two to get to know each other, and their new surroundings and new schedules..

And my big girl from the Humane Society, OMGosh, she just goes nuts whenever I return from anywhere... even if it's only 5 minutes or so, lol. She just cannot believe I keep coming back for her, but I can see the joy in her expression. She was only 2.5 yo when I adopted her, and all she has ever wanted to do was to please me. We had to do some behavior modifications, but we are closer now than ever.

At 8 months, Ms Sillers' pup is still very much a puppy, and I really can't imagine any pup having bonding issues at that age. Yorkies, though devoted, have one of the strongest wills to live, and are good at adapting to new situations and new people, even though most of us like to think our pups would never make it with anyone else but us. Bonding issues more often occur when the owner misinterprets what the dog is doing, not because the dog isn't willing to bond.
