I do not know of anyone in that area, but thier are a lot of quality breeders on the forum. I would say you have to ask yourself what are you looking for in a Yorkie? A good pedigree, or just a pet? Also what are you looking to spend? Are you willing to have one shipped to you to meet thes needs?

Dubuque is pretty close to WI so I would see if there were any breeders on here from WI which I know there are considering I am from WI and have found lots of people! Good Luck

You might try Shawn at yorkiesjs.com, she has some very nice puppies. I'm not sure what she has available right now. She is located in northeast IA, I believe. Good luck in your search!

Have you tried yorkiesgalore.com? I believe she is in Indianola. Also, try breeders.net. When you get to this site, just put down what breed you are looking for and your zip code. It will take you to a long list of yorkie breeders in Iowa and many of them have websites. Good luck and keep me posted!!!

I wouldn't recommend yorkiesgalore.com, she has too many dogs. Also she breeds mixes. JMO

I agree-having so many at once and the mixed breeds too makes it appear to be more of a business than anything. I don't think you'd know exactly what you were getting buying from a website either-home raised dogs, bred by experienced breeders are best, IMO.

Hello,

I don't know if you found a puppy yet, but I've got four little girls that are 7 weeks old now. They are AKC registered and should mature between 3-5 pounds. I'm in Plymouth Wisconsin, and I'd be willing to drive to meet somewhere.

Thanks,

Whitney Harris

I have several puppies looking for a truely good home, they are almost four months old from one litter and going on 3 months old from the other. I live in North Dakota but I am willing to hand deliever my babies to the right homes.
You can speak with Francis53 or EmrldShdwQueen regarding the quality of my Yorkies. If you would be interested I have them listed here Yorkie Puppies Ready For New Homes. The little one standing is spoken for but the rest are still available. Terri

I have had first hand dealings with Yorkiesgalore.com and I will tell anyone not to deal with them. I will explain to anyone what hapened to me - being very new to the whole thing - I wanted a female Yorkie and I believe she told me $950 and at the time I couldn't afford that. They talked me into what they called a SHORKY - and they charged me $450 and met me accross from the airport in DM, IA, at 6:30 am one morning. It was dark and they only accepted cash. I didn't have a clue what a Shorky was suppose to look like and when it comes to babies (human or animal) I love them all. She gave me a ziploc with a little pet food in it and another ziplock with paperwork. I just assumed the receipt was in the the ziplock ---NOT!. This lady was very nasty and filthy mouthed. I fought with them off and on for over a year on how they screwed me because my puppy has absolutely NO Yorkie in her. Two vets and two groomers say she looks too much like a Laso Apso. I love her anyway and since she was filthy and needed a bath when I got her I feel I saved her.

I have since learned that you need to go to the breeders home and look at the parents and other puppies as I did when I bought my Yorkie from a reputable breeder in NE Iowa. I have met two other people who have purchased puppies from this same place and none of them seen anything but the puppy they purchased.

I also agree that if they are are breeding more than 1 or two different breeds and mixing them - this is how they live - I believe they are a puppy mill and I have done everything I know of to turn them in. If anyone can give me the proper information on who to contact to have them surprised by a state inspector - I would love to do it. I feel sorry for the animals.

I'm sure if she reads this now - I will hear from her yet again. I don't care - I'm not a liar and I'm telling the truth. I love my animals way too much to do what they are doing to support myself the way they are.

Thanks for sharing your experience with yorkiesgalore, I never actually met the lady. I called her about 5 yrs. ago looking for a female yorkie. she quoted me a price of $1100 for one, when I asked about AKC registration the price for that jumped to $1800. She tried to tell me that registering with AKC was so expensive and that's why she charged more. well, I know that is not true so I was put off and knew I didn't want to deal with her.
I'm glad you love your little one you got from her and she has a good home!

Love I have the perfect Yorkie for you!

Hi, my name is Chrisy- I breed Yorkies, and they are truely beautiul!
You can see my album at crisy2u I own the mother and the father, there are pics of her and her siblings along with her mommy and daddy. I have 1 female left, she will be around 5 lbs full grown, she has a babydoll face and is gorgious! She will be 8 weeks on Friday Feb 6th. Also she is very calm, which is hard to find in a Yorkie! We would love to keep this one, but just can't! But I want to find a special home for her! She is a blue and gold, she has championship bloodlines on both sides of her parents! I also have references if you would like to hear from them. I live in Galesburg, Il. and work in Davenport, Ia. She was from a litter of 3 and the other 2 are leaving tomorrow night and Saturday morning. She really is fabulous, feel free to call me at 309-221-2147 or email me at crisy2u@yahoo.com

Chrisy
