Reply To: New puppy
I don’t think we’ve ever had a yorkie at my shelter as far as I can remember. We rarely get small dogs. There are many breed rescues out there – just google “Yorkie rescue in [your state]” if you think you’d like to rescue. However – it’s perfectly acceptable to purchase a purebred from a breeder if that’s what you want. Adopting isn’t right for everyone. All of my dogs have been purebreds purchased through reputable breeders. If you do decide to go to a breeder however, it is CRITICAL that you go to a responsible breeder – do not purchase a pup from a backyard breeder or puppy mill, please. Find the website for your breed’s parent club and have them put you in touch with a reputable breeder in your area – breed clubs stringently screen their recommended breeders so you can knock off a lot of the duds right from the get go by going through the breed club. Just to warn you – if going to a responsible breeder you will likely be put on a wait list for a pup (it could be over a year – responsible breeders will never have pups available immediately) and it will be very expensive, but it’s worth it to get a healthy dog free of genetic diseases and to know that you aren’t contributing to the population problem by supporting backyard breeders and puppy mills.
