Getting Your Hands On A Yorkie Puppy

Getting your hands on a Yorkie puppy can prove to be difficult due to the high demand for them. Even if you spot the ads right away, breeders are charging quite a lot of money for them.

They often have some high expenses to cover due to the costs involved in raising these pups. However, they know people will pay the price.

Don’t think getting a Yorkie is never going to happen though due to the cost involved. You may need to get more creative and put some time into seeing what other options you have.

Pay attention to individuals who advertise these puppies for sale. Chances are they will be selling them for much less than the breeders out there.

This is because they don’t have such a high overhead to cover. They just want to get the puppies out of their home so they don’t have to continue caring for them. They also enjoy making some profit from the sale.

If they had to pay for the sire duties, or medical care to assist with the pregnancy, then they will often charge more so they can get that money reimbursed.

However, you can often talk an individual into accepting a lower price more easily than you can with a breeder. That is their business so they are often firm on the set price. It would be like going to the grocery store and trying to negotiate the cost of the items you buy there.

To find the quality breeders in your area look in the phone book or online. Most of them do have websites with pictures of the Yorkie puppies for sale that they offer. Sometimes they will include the price, but often they don’t to entice you to contact them and check into it further.

They know when people see the puppies in person they fall in love and can be persuaded to pay that cost.

If you keep your eyes out you will find some unbelievable deals too. For example you may see a sign that says “Free to good homes, Yorkies”. This is your chance to get the dog you have wanted for so long without shelling out all the money you have been saving up. Of course this particular scenario doesn’t happen very often and they will go fast when it does.

Don’t forget that adoption is an option for you to explore as well. There are animal shelters all over the place with dogs. They may have some of these puppies there as well. There are also specific Yorkie rescue centers that don’t handle any other breed of dog.

Check online to see if there is one close to you. The cost of adopting from these rescue centres is much less than buying one from a breeder. Yet there is no guarantee that they will accept your application to get one. They are very picky about who they approve because they want the puppies to go to the best possible homes.

Getting your hands on a Yorkie puppy can prove to be challenging but don’t give up. You can keep saving your money until you have enough to buy what you want from an area breeder.

You can also continue to look for private sellers and free puppies that people need to hurry up and get rid of.

While it can take a while with the adoption process it is worth looking into. You should be able to submit an application online to various shelters and rescue centers.

This way you can get on their waiting list and hopefully get approved for the puppy you want very soon.
