| Welcome to YT I have never heard of this breeder, I just looked at her website. I see Red Flags, any breeder that uses the word "tiny" breeds for tiny dogs which can be unhealthy in the near future. Standard weight for yorkies is not to exceed 7 pounds. I personally would be Leary buying a puppy from any breeder that uses words such as, baby doll face, tiny and teacup.

| While I AGREE with Joan! If you are Interested in a Breeder, (actually any Breeder) know the right questions to ask them....such as; EXACTLY What does her Health Guarantee cover? And for how long? When was the last two times she competed in Confrontational Dog Shows and How did she 'place'? Don't stop there, always add; 'Out of how many dogs in the class?' Many times 'show' people will say, as a brag, that they came in 3rd in the last show....when asked, you find out there were only 3 in the class. Always ask to see ANY sort of papers/contracts you have to sign ahead of time, before leaving your home to go look at puppies. Make sure, even though she says, AKC, that YOU are getting the AKC papers WITH THE PUPPY. Many times, an old trick, 'the papers are not back from the AKC....' The breeders have WEEEEEEKS to get those papers, AND they can now be finished on line..... Don't buy a puppy without the breeder giving you the papers ALONG WITH THE PUPPY IN THE PACKET THEY SHOULD GIVE YOU WITH SHOT AND DEWORMING records, at least. And if you can not see BOTH parents of the puppies.....walk away. |

| I personally think she might be breeding for tinies just going by how small most of them are. I don’t like how she says We have tiny and small yorkies like there are two size categories. I would be worried that if she is breeding for tiny pups that she may be breeding females under 5 pounds which is dangerous. I personally would pass.

My point is, that if the breeder is going to 'throw around' that she has shown for many years, it is worth asking for proof of her doing well in the ring....proving she breeds by the Standard. | |
