That is a bit of the problem with YTCA breeders. They breed minimally and their primary purpose is not to sell puppies. They breed for themselves first, for that next Champion to add to their breeding program. So, you have to put yourself on their waiting list. But, well worth the wait. But, even if you don't buy a puppy from them, they want you to be thoroughly educated so that you can make the best possible decision.

Try Deb Lacy too.

How far away are you from Kokomo? Two great breeders there
Julie Howard/Jo-Nel

I see that as an asset instead of a problem. You know that each breeding was done carefully thus ensuring the best of the best. At least when compared to people who breed their dogs all willy nilly not caring what kind of dogs they produce. :

A bit of a problem for those that want a puppy now. Our's is a I want it now society.

I've been lucky with my puppy families. They've done their homework and start their search with YTCA breeders and are willing to wait. I had one family wait for 2 years. Wanting a puppy from one of my girls that hadn't finished her Championship yet. She was 9 months when they saw her in the ring.

One of them doesn't for sure. But I agree, all respectable. Even if they can't help you now they may refer you to someone locally that does.

Yep. She's a sweety. I didn't give her because I knew she didn't have anything now either. She had nice yorkies.

awww Totto is such a cutie...what a sweetheart.
I hope it works out for you.

Can you imagine the soul satisfaction of loving a dog for the rest of its life that was sooo deprived? I know that Bear loves us just a wee bit more because of the gratitude he feels. I have a wee bit softer spot in my heart for him as well because of the bond of lost and found. I love my yorkie babies but from birth they have been loved, pampered and coddled. They've never had a day of suffering or a day where they did not feel total love. Baxter was always appreciated but was in a home situation that was not good for a dog and the rehome was necessary and so he might have been overly confined but never truly suffered. Bear was a shelter rescue and is therefore my special baby, inasmuch as we have a mutual understanding of grace given and received.

So of course my vote is go Totto!

A puppy purchase shouldn't be rushed into anyway. But you're right about our society wanting instant gratification.

Totto looks like a cutie! I hope he is a perfect match for you...it would be a 'win win' situation. Best wishes on your search.

I know it shouldn't. But, it is unfortunate that most put more thought into buying a car than a living, breathing, precious life. I get so many calls from people wanting a pup, thinking they're going to be able to take a pup home immediately. Even if I have one available, people think just because they want one I'm going to sell them one. Some have become irrate when I've told them no.

I have four beautiful yorkies! Two are babies from my Maggie May, but with that said, if and when I ever get another I WILL ADOPT AND RESCUE! I agree with the other posts about how grateful I know Totto will be. Besides ...WOW! is he a cutie! Please keep us posted after you meet him!!!
