				   |      My husband and I just went through a heart breaking experience.  We were uneducated and we bought a little male puppy (Buster) from a pet store.  Little did we know that he was sick when we purchased him.  He grew weaker everyday.  We took him to the vet several times, got up every two hours to feed him but, we lost our battle only 5 short days after we brought him home.  We are still grieving for our baby but, like some of the people on this site said what a wonderful thing to look forward to, getting another healthy, happy pup.  We would never try to replace our little boy however, we are longing to have a great experience and give a little one all of the love and care that he needs.  We are located in Southeast Missouri (the bootheel).  We are very close to Western Tennessee, Western Kentucky, Southern Illinois and Northern Arkansas all at once.  We are willing to travel to find our baby but, if we could find an honest, loving, breeder close that would even be better.  Please contact us if you are that breeder of if you know of one in our area.   Thank you for your time, Michelle  |

				   |      I would definitely suggest you contact Blumoon Yorkies. All her Yorkies have had bile acids tests to make sure they don't have liver shunts or liver disease they could pass on to puppies. This is one of the very few Yorkies breeders I would consider getting a puppy from myself since learning that Yorkies are thirty-six times more likely to have a liver shunt than all other breeds combined.      AKC Yorkies, Yorkshire Terriers, Champion Yorkie males There are also several Missouri breeders on the YTCA breeders list: Yorkshire Terrier Club of America About The Club  |

				   |      Hi Michelle. I'm so sorry to hear of what you've been through. I hope our state will get tougher with these bad breeders and puppy mills and crack down.    I'm up in the NW corner of the state and I do have puppies that will be ready towards the end of March. If you'd like, you can take a look at my website and see their pictures. I also have a guarantee that you can view there as well. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
