Florida Yorkie
 

I can give you names of 3 reputable breeders in North Florida/and close to you. You can pm me for info.:)

I always suggest people look to the Yorkshire Terrier Club of America for breeder referrals. There are several in Florida you could interview. The YTCA is the mother club for the AKC, and these breeders truly are breeding for the right reasons, and that's to preserve and protect the breed. So even if you don't plan to show or breed, and just want a great pet, I suggest going to the best breeder you can find. Yorkshire Terrier Club of America About The Club

As already suggested, check out the YTCA.org breeder referral page.......

If you're looking for a non-breeding boy, you've got some of the best breeders in Florida & Georgia, they're listed there.

PM me and I can give you people that are from YTCA list that I know and live near you. I use to live in FL and these are very reputable people.

Before you purchase a little Yorkie, please read these links:

How much is a Yorkie puppy?

Cutting Corners

So be very careful. Do lots of research. Stay far away from pet stores and on-line breeders at all costs. Puppy mill operators have learned to talk the talk of good breeders. Their web sites are usually wonderful, alluring, and have positive feedback from supposed customers. Make sure that you ALWAYS are able to go to the breeder's home and see the environment that your furbaby has been raised in. It's worth the extra effort, time, and money. Remember that anyone may join YorkieTalk.......back-yard-breeders, unethical breeders, and puppy mill owners. Best wishes in your search. ~Joanne~

Excellent advice from YT members. Research is key. You must go and see the puppies, the parents and how the puppies are raised. Very important is the breeders guarantee on the puppy.

On the YTCA breeder page, one of those listed is very nice, but only does rescue. I spoke to her before getting my Beamer, and she recommended another lady that was on the list. I called and the lady had a small female - she was one that she had been keeping, but she wanted to "cull her stock down". We went over to see her. I only saw the one Yorkie. I asked how many Yorkie's she had, and she just said "too many" The price was cheap for the one Yorkie we saw ($500). We arranged for her to visit us with the Yorkie so we could see how she got on with Lil Bit.
She brought her over, and the little sweetie was timid. Breeder was telling us she does not allow her Yorkies to go outside in the yard and they use the pee pads. We have a doggie door and Lil Bit likes to go outside.
Breeder said that she was taking little one to be spayed and then we could have her. She was a tiny - compared to Lil Bit, only weighed about 3lbs. I called the day she was spayed to see how she was doing. She was doing fine, and breeder was going to bring her over in a couple of days.

Well, the day before we were supposed to get her, breeder called, said she changed her mind, she just couldn't let the little one go. I understood, as she was such a precious little babe.

A couple of weeks later I looked for a breeder who had the "line" I wanted - not for breeding, but because I wanted a good healthy dog with a good pedigree. I found a breeder in Michigan, who didn't have any puppies, but she had Beamer who was almost a year old. Of course he was a lot more expensive than the little female we almost got, but that didn't matter. We arranged to have him flown down to us, and we have been "entertained" by him ever since. I often wonder how many Yorkies the other lady had.

The number of yorkies one has is at times irrevelant. It is the medical attention and how they are cared for. The spacing of females between breeding.

Her vagueness to you was nothing against you. But, more than likely was reluctant to tell you, because Animal Rights Activist are at times attempting to gain access to a breeders home.

If one is an exhibitor/breeder that has a great line of winning Champions, it can't be done with 2 or 3 dogs. To produce a great line, a minimum of 5 breeding girls is necessary. But, then it is dependent on what one's goals are.

Could also have been that here in Palm Bay we are only allowed 4 dogs, and she may have had concerns about a stranger knowing she had more than 4 dogs - although she did say "too many".
She was a very nice lady, and her home was spotless. I believe she takes good care of her dogs. And she obviously loved the little female, as she decided at the last minute that she couldn't part with her. (I think the puppy was about 3 years old - I know, not really a puppy, but they are all puppies to me - just like I'm always 21:D

I think since the OP only has the one post and was back on July 6th s/he has a yorkie already or has moved on. I do not think they are looking anymore.

Most breeders obtaine special kennel license from the city. So, that may not have been the case.

When is it ever ok to be vague with your customers...or have "too many" breeding dogs? Obviously when it is a YTCA member. :confused:

Just another example of...do as I say, not as I do.

This has nothing to do with YTCA breeders at all, but breeders in general. Too many could have been 3 or 4, 5 or 10.

I'm always vague until I've established a relationship with a "client" not customer. Not because I have too many breeding dogs. But, because of Animal Rights Activists and those that are of unscrupulous personalities. There are those that are known to just wait to either rob a house or lay in wait to enter a home to take dogs. One can't be too careful.

It appears you have problem with me or YTCA in general.

I'm sorry if it appears that way. Because in reality...I have no problems with you or anyone on this site. But I will stand up for someone I think is being bullied, or for something I love and believe in.

It is the message I have a problem with and how you flip flop it around to suit your purpose and agenda. You tell people who may purchase their pups from pet or hobby breeders that vagueness and too many breeding dogs are major RED FLAGS. Anyone who will not answer your questions obviously has something to hide. Don't walk..but run the other way. We have all heard it over and over again. And that is more often then not...good advice.

However, the problem I have is you contradict yourself when it comes to a YTCA breeder who was not forth coming about her dogs and her breeding program. But you defended her, and actually grasped at reasons for her being coy and secreative. You can't have it both ways.

That's just the YTCA attitude. They are good breeders and mean well, just come across very ruff.

And where was I bulling this person, I was explaining to her what could have been the breeders reasoning of not revealing the number of dogs she had.

For your information though I may be a member of the YTCA, but my mentor isn't.....several of my mentors aren't

Excuse me! YTCA isn't an attitude. And no where did I come off ruff. My words were twisted as to mean something that wasn't stated. That I was condoning vagueness.....

But, it does appear there are those that have a problem with YTCA. But, whether one likes it or not, they are the Yorkshire Terrier Governing Club.

This is what we use for ARA and thieves. Fila Brasiliero and an Anatolian Shepard.(they luv there Yorkies) "Can we help U?" they do an awsome job!

Nope! I'm doing an ok job for myself.

I'm confused, where has Mardelin attacked anyone, and what issues has she been flip flopping on? She has been very consistent in her replies, and has recommended many times that a breeder should build a relationship with the client. For puppy buyers. she often reminds us that we are buying a breeder first, and a lifetime relationship. I seriously have never read her or anyone say, "Vagueness and too many breeding dogs are major RED FLAGS." I have read her say that 5 females are needed for a serious breeding program, because some pet owners think that is an excessive number. Her advice is very consistent; "Get to know your breeder!" I wish more breeders would listen to her and get to know their "customers."

Serious dogs. Do you train and work obedience with them?

Yes it is .. as well as all the health screening and checks you do prior to breeding your dogs.

Filas yes. The Anatolian is a LGD Livestock gaurdian dog. She lives in the pastures with our horses,mini cows and chickens.

No disrespect ma'am.It is an awsome standard. U do not have to be on the list to be a good breeder though.Attitude is attidude, nothing wrong with it

I agree! And ANY breeder who will not be honest about their dogs and their breeding practices should not be defended just because they belong to a certain club.

I agree, rules should be the same whether or not you are in a club, but I do believe you are blowing this out of proportion, the breeder said something about downsizing, and when asked how many she had she said "too many." I'm sure lots of breeders think that at times, and probably a few pet owners! Sometimes, it does seem like people love to pick out any flaw a member of the YTCA has and pounce on it. On one hand, people are so angry because the club is so picky and won't let them in, and on the other hand, they criticize it because one of the members do or say something they don't like. The purpose of the club is not to sell puppies it has nothing to do with that; it's to persevere, protect, and improve the breed. It's filled with humans and humans are flawed, but it's still the best protection the Yorkshire Terrier has.

Welcome! I don't know if your still around but if your still looking I would like to wish you good luck in your search and to also let you know that the Admin of Yorkie Talk has offered a wonderful section here for Yorkie Talk members to post their puppies for sale. You may find a wonderful breeder right here on YT.
(always be sure to do your research on the breeder you choose no matter where you find them :))

Good luck again and I hope you will post more and show pictures of your new baby when you find him or her! :)
