New Yorkie mom! I'm getting a Yorkie on 12/9! I have so many questions so I'm reading some of the very helpful threads here. My main concern now is finding a vet. I saw that PetSmarts have a Banfield pet hospital. Does anyone recommend them? Are they any good or should I look for a vet elsewhere? I really like that they have weekend hours. This is my first Yorkie and my first dog as an adult so any advice tips or input is welcomed. |
I would research some other vets. I noticed you said your location is Charlotte NC. This is a pretty populated area and I am sure you will be able to find a reputable vet. Are you getting your puppy from Charlotte? Maybe your breeder can give you some suggestions. What about co-workers or friends with pets. I found out about my vet 9 years ago from my then potential groomer. I still have the same groomer and the same vet. You may try calling around or googling some vets in your area. |
I noticed that you want a vet with weekend hours. When you start researching make sure you find out if the vet has weekend hours. I live in a small town and my vet is open one Saturday per month . I am sure you will not have any problems finding a vet that has some type of week end schedule. |
Glam Chic, congratulations on your puppy. You will love having a yorkie. Is your puppy a boy or girl? I have a little girl. She will be a year old on 12/8. It is very exciting getting a new puppy. I also have a bichon that is 8 years old. Both my girls are something else. They are polar opposites but they are so wonderful. I look forward to hearing your stories and questions! |
Congrats! Our "babies" were born just a few days apart! |
Congratulations and welcome to YT! We would love to see pics of your new baby! |
PetSmart - Richmond VA I take Trixie there, her vet is great it is a female vet and she is a Yorkie owner. |
congrats on the new puppy. We just got our puppy too. She is 5 months old. We will be taking her to an all natural pet health vet. This vet came highly recommended by our good friends. I can't wait to take her to the vet so we can finally get a haircut. |
Welcome to YT & congrats! |
Congrats on your new upcoming baby and Welcome to YT. I would search for vets that specialize in small breed dogs. There should be a few in Charlotte. Most vets have saturday hours, I think (around here they do anyway) |
Welcome and Congrats on your new pup |
Welcome to YT. Congratulations on your new baby. I highly recommend you read Yorkshire terrier for dummies it is a great book with lots of info. |
I have heard nothing but very bad thing about them and I would never trust them with my baby. |
