| Yorkie Male wanted in Illinois! Hi Everyone! I'm looking for a Yorkie male for my fiancee as a belated Christmas present. I tried finding one for him before Christmas, but most of the breeders I found in the local newspapers sounded like puppy mills. We lost our boy Fonzie this past summer due to old age, and we'd love to find another with sass and spunk just like him. I live in Northern Illinois near the Wisconsin border, so if anyone has any litters coming up in the area please let me know! |

| I live in the Chicago area and will be flying out someday to Ca or TX for our next Yorkie. You certainly will want to check out the YTCA. Best of luck. Buy the breeder first, and then the pup! Yorkshire Terrier Club of America About The Club |

There are a lot of great breeders in IL and many up in the northern part of the state. I would make sure to check the link above for a breeder. Good luck with your search.

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | Watch out, you will probably get a lot of PM's offering you pups for sale. Just be aware that just because someone is a YT member does not make them a good breeder. Do your research to avoid getting burned.

| Thanks everyone for the helpful advice! I'll definitely check out the YTCA website for a list of breeders in my area. That definitely helps narrow down my search! |

| Good for you and thank you for taking the time to look for a reputable breeder instead of doing what sadly so many do and buying from a puppy mill or pet store! Good luck in your search. It looks like you are on the right track and I'm sure the perfect new family member is out there for you! |
