Pictures look adorable - but you can't tell from pics. Need to know more about the breeder, health guarantees etc.

I agree.

I did, I e-mailed her a huuuge list of questions. Yet to respond but she said I am free to stop by and see the mother/father/puppies. There is a picture of the puppy I want in an album, the photo was too large to post on here...

So, the original lady I was talking to called me out of nowhere today trying to get me convinced to buy her puppy. Well I started asking more questions and she told me her damn weighed 11 lbs and the sire was 9! The puppy will be 8 weeks tomorrow and is already 3 lbs! What...? I calmly and politely told her I was not interested, and felt rude, still. I wanted to ask her why she would even breed them but instead decided to shut my mouth and keep the peace...

hahahah! I just had to laugh at this post. I'm 5'4" and wear a size 3 (young boys). When it comes to tennis shoes I go with vans and converse because I always find something I like. When it comes to more feminine shoes..... I have such a hard time finding anything I like, and it's even harder to find something in my size. It sucks!!!!

Anyway, I'm glad to see a potential yorkie owner doing their homework. I hope you find your perfect baby girl soon.

I know, it does suck. Yet everybody else thinks it would be so nice to be as small as me so that they could fit into everything...but the harsh reality is quite the opposite lol Hey--shoes are much cheaper. Vans run $42 and I usually manage to only pay $20 because they are childrens lol

Turns out I have to do a lot of homework. Finding my Furkid is harder than my college studies! Yikes. But both will pay off.

VERY TRUE!!! Both will pay off indeed.

And shoes are cheaper in kids sizes. It's about the only thing I like about my small feet.

Same here, because it is not like they make many heels in small sizes. So sad

Good for you for doing your homework before buying a puppy. There are a lot of puppy mills and backyard breeders out there to weed through.

Thank you :-)

Yes there are quite a few of them. Good news is they are not very well educated on what they think they are doing so it is REALLY easy to weed them out.
