Thanks for all the tips! I have contacted a few breeders off the YTCA and we decided to look at the other two pups but if she is going to let them go at 8 weeks we don't want one that young! Plus we have other questions also. We found one female who is 5 months old from Wendy Garcia Wenlo she has a great reputation and I am waiting to hear back from a few others in my NY area. I think for us since Guinness was 14 weeks and Harp was 6 months we would be best suited for T least 4 months or older! So we will keep looking we are in no hurry!

I have heard that there are several good breeders in the tri-state area. I have heard positive things about Wendy Garcia and also good things about the Jenks in Connecticut. My Katie was three when I got her from a wonderful breeder in Canada. I can attest to the difference it makes when you get your pup from someone who breeds for good health and temperament. I hope you find the baby you are looking for.
