Yorkie Talker | yorkie female Hello, My name is Linda. I am looking for a yorkie female about 4-5 lbs. She doesn't have to be from champion lines, but does have to be of good quality, short legs,short nose and vibrant eyes. I am having a hard time finding a reputable breeder that will give full AKC breeding rights. Please I need your help. I live in North Mississippi, and would like to find one that is fairly close. Thanks so much. Linda |

| I'd be surprised if a 'good' breeder would give breeding rights, unless you are very experienced breeder or very knowledgeable yourself. Plus you and your breeder, should be just as interested in the dogs health, as well as looks, if not more than looks. Also the dogs temperament is important.

| A reputable breeder is not going to give you breeding rights they work way to hard for them to do that. If you truly want to breed you need to get to know a reputable breeder and watch many of there whelps and learn as much as you can from them and then maybe they will trust you with one of there's to breed. If you are wanting to breed it is your responsibility to make sure your doing EVERYTHING you can to to insure you are bringing healthy puppies in the world this means the dogs coming from great lines which does mean earning a reputable breeders trust and knowing the lines several dogs back not just two to make sure nothing runs in there lines, there is also health testing that needs to be done and this is not the kind that can just be done by your regular vet and you will need to keep them until 12 weeks. Then you also have to be prepared to take care of the pups if the mom rejects them which means you have to do EVERYTHING she does including feeding them every 2 hours, keeping them warm, cleaning then and stimulating them to potty. You should not breed a female under 5 pounds ever. This is also not a way to make money, reputable breeders rarely break even. You also may pick out a great female pup but when she matures she may not be to the Yorkshire terrier standard and may not be breeding quality. If you just want a pet you don't need breeding rights.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Hi and welcome to YT . What you're looking for may prove to be a tough thing. The reason why is that a good breeder...one who truly cares about bettering this breed and breeding for the betterment of breed...would be extremely reticent about approving others to breed, most especially those w/out experience. A good breeder will want to PROTECT this breed from even more indiscriminate breeding...which is not a bad thing, as I'm sure you understand. My best advice to you is to find a good breeder -- I mean someone who is really, really good - and ask if they will mentor you prior to you breeding.

| If you are looking for just a pet or pet quality (which can still be in very good health and structure), limited registration isn't so bad, it just means you can't register any pups you breed or they have to be fixed (depending on the breeder stipulation). I think you can't do some of the main dog shows, but you can still do many events and competitions. Even though I have gotten full registration, my girl is not gonna do show and she's gonna get fixed as soon as she's able to. It one of the first things I've mentioned when speaking to the breeder too, she's just gonna be a family member :3
