| Just a word of advice: Generally, reputable breeders do not stive for puppies that small. You will find that when they do, chances are they are not the kind of people you want to support and get a dog from. Also, for the record, these same types of breeders that often use the terms "tiny" and "babyface" as you have mentioned, usually do so as a marketing ploy to drive up prices and screw over prospective owners. If you are using those terms and looking for a 2-3 pound Yorkies, that's probably why you are seeing such astronomical prices...which would pale in comparison to what you'd probably be out for vet bills and heatache. If you ask me, it sounds like your mom is a smart woman. |

Try asking some of the vets in your area. They may be able to recommend a good breeder to you. Also, I'm not sure about your area, but if there is a PetSmart, I know their onsite trainers recommend breeders from time to time...I know that the ones here do. As for the cute face...if you get a Yorkie, that's pretty much a given! Good luck! | |

| Hahha. Mommiee. =X Arghh it's SO complicated!!! I've been stressing out over this for the past 3 days! GRR. And I had two perfect offers on this type of dog exactly how I wanted it but my mom said no because she wanted to see it in person and was scared that it would be a scam because it would be shipped from Texas in a plane over here. And another one was gonna come from West Africa. xD How coool. |

YT Addict | Good for your mom. If it was from West Africa it was definitely a scam. But I think you can find some perfectly good yorkies here for at least a thousand... but for the weight you want you might end up spending a little more. Besides, my Theresa only weighs 5 lbs and she only looks 3lbs. So it all depends on their body and bone structure. Also, you might get a puppy that weighs only 2 or 3 lbs and then they might get a growth spurt and weigh 9 or 10lbs. It is really difficult to judge the weight of the dog. But good luck in search!

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | Hi and good luck - You should listen to your mom. With all the scams out there now be very careful who you buy from....and also you may want to read up on caring for a tiny. There's alot of info right on this site. If you're on a tight budget - you also need to factor in vet care once you have the puppy... it can be much higher with a tiny. |

| Yeah I agree with what everyone said. I am too looking for a little babydoll face yorkie, but 2 to 3 pds is extremly tiny. My little girl was 3.5 to 4 pds and she had a small frame. She had a babydoll face and I think she was really tiny as small as she was I had to be very careful I can't imagine one smaller than that. You need to be careful. You can always get a small that weighs more, but has a small frame like my little Summer had. That is what I am looking for. She was very short to the ground and had a short body.

Happy yorkie hunting, to find one that small with the babydoll face and $1,000 or under you are going to be doing ALOT of yorkie hunting, but it's fun just be patient and the one that was meant for you will come Here is a pic of my baby she weighs 2 pounds 11 ounces,
