| Would like info about buying puppies please! My daughter and I would like to add 2 pups to our family! We live in Florida and would like to know the average cost of a good pup from a reputable person. We want to give them a Great home with lots of love, but would like to be knowledgeable on the breed to better take care of them. We have a nice, quiet house where there is someone present 90% of the time. They will not be alone for very long. Any help would be greatly appreciated. We would like to know the proper food to give them, grooming tips, reputable breeders in our state, and general care for the pups. Thank you guys in advanced. We are both very excited and look forward to hearing from you great folks on this forum. |

| It really depends on your area but I would say $1,000 to $2,500 for a pup from a reputable breeder. You can look for reputable breeders at ytca.org. Reputable breeders do all available health and genetic testing possible, the do not breed females under 5 pounds, they have a spay and neuter contract, they will not let puppies go home before 12 weeks, they will be AKC registered, they do not use the word teacup or micro, they don't breed mixes, and they are willing to answer any questions you have. Here is a link about yorkies Yorkshire Terrier Page and here is a link about finding a good breeder http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/bre...e-breeder.html Please do not buy from a pet store though because all of there puppies come from puppy mills.
