I once read it on someone's shirt and wondered what it meant. Later, I read somewhere that it was actually written by some quite famous author and used as an example of either an extremely short ';novel'; or poem - maybe Hemingway? Who wrote the following: ';Used books for sale hardly read';?
sounds like Hemingway, i dont know though
its kinda like his ';For sale: Baby shoes, never worn';, its his story with only six wordsWho wrote the following: ';Used books for sale hardly read';?
i think it means that they dont like to read...?

Yorkie for sale in boston under 700?
do anyone have a yorkie for sale in the boston area that grows to 5lbs. i am looking for a female but i will buy a male if i can't find a male my limit is 700 or underYorkie for sale in boston under 700?
Sometimes I wish yorkies weren't so popular...then there wouldn't be uneducated people like you looking for unhealthy dogs.
A reputable breeder will not guarantee the size of his/her pups. You want a 5 lb yorkie, but it could end up 2 lbs, or 7 lbs, or even more.
Your limit is ridiculous! Do you not care about the health or the temperment of your dog, or the thousands and thousands of dollars an unhealthy yorkie will cost you in the first few weeks? Oh, I forgot, as long as its a 5lb, $700 yorkie, you don't care if it dies of liver shunt before it reaches a year.Yorkie for sale in boston under 700?
The smaller the Yorkie, the more expensive the medical problems:

YORKiE FOR SALE?!?
i am looking for a yorkie puppy for sale..
in california.hopefully near sacramento..plz..help meeh out ive been wanting one for 3 years.help meeh.YORKiE FOR SALE?!?
Try to look in your local newspapers. You could also go to a pet store, which is prolly a safer way since it isn't coming from a person you don't know. It could be costly though. I got a yorkie, she was 450, but that was 5 or 6 years ago.
The cutest yorkies are the teacup yorkies, ommg they're soooooo cuteeee!!YORKiE FOR SALE?!?
check your local animal shelter. save a dog or puppy from being killed by overcrowded shelters. also try petfinder.com
Google yorkie breeders in california. This will help tons. Make sure to stay away from breeders that sale teacups. This is a scam as teacups do not exsist and have poor health (and behavior). If one or two dogs on their site are teacups then who knows all the dogs good be in poor health. Never buy a dog u feel sorry for, this may cost more than a teacup vet wise.
Good luck hope you find your perfect puppy, remember to see the dogs' kennels and buy safely.
What's the problem? The Sacramento Bee, the San Francisco Chronicle and the Stockton Record have them advertised. The Sacramento Kennel Club as well as the San Joaquin Kennel Club maintain a breeders registry. If I recall there are puppy farms for several toy breeds (including Yorkshire Terrier) in Lodi, Oakley, Woodbridge, and Galt. There's breed rescue by the parent club, the Sacramento county animal shelter, the Sac City animal control, the Delta Humane Society, the Stockton Animal Shelter.
What do you mean you've been looking for three years and can't find a Yorkie for sale?
Hate to be rude but I'd agree with him, all it takes it searching. Go to http://petfinder.com/ if your too lazy to just ask people around........
Get off your fat *** that you've been sitting on for the past three years and drive down to your local animal shelter to get one.

TEACUP YORKIE FOR SALE UNDER $400?
PLEASE! Does anybody know where i can buy a teacup yorkie for $400 or less? I absolutely HAVE to have one for christmas time, ive promised my daughters one and $400 dollars is the highest i will go!
I have already been scammed by someone trying to sell me a teacup yorkie and take my money by making up some phoney story! So make sure its reliable!
PLEASE %26amp; THANK YOU SO MUCH!
(ALSO DONT TELL ME THAT THERE ISNT SUCH THING AS A TEACUP YORKIE, I DONT WANT TO HEAR IT, IM NOT CHANGING MY MIND)TEACUP YORKIE FOR SALE UNDER $400?
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A TEACUP YORKIE
Please do not yell at us, or tell us what to tell you.
Go ahead and buy a cheap, poorly bred runt, but if you can't afford more than $400, then you cannot afford the vet bills that will be coming for your poorly bred runt.
Please, research responsible breeding and dog ownership.
Think about what lesson you are teaching your children with this.
Add: I love the advice to get one on-line or from a pet store. You know the conditions the parents of these pups are kept in, right? What would your children think if they saw pictures of that? Again, is that how you want to raise your children? Tell them a dog is their Christmas present, but, being responsible, you will actually get the dog after Christmas, when it is less busy. They will be excited no matter when you get the dog.TEACUP YORKIE FOR SALE UNDER $400?
Being a show person of yorkies, and an occasional breeder I can tell you that what you want is a tiny yorkie, not a T-Cup (no such thing), also you did not say how old your daughter is, but most toy dog breeders will NOT sell a standard yorkie, let alone a tiny to anyone with children under 8 in the home. They are much too delicate to be rough housed by kids that don't know any better.
You're not going to find any well bred yorkie for under $400. Period. You are certainly not going to find a poorly bred runt (aka. Teacup) for less than that as the back yard breeders and puppy mills jack the prices up on them to make you think you are getting something rare or special. Please do some research before you buy. Teacups of any breed most often have horrendous health complications and are incredibly fragile. They should NEVER be left alone with children and even normal sized adult yorkies are not good pets for kids; they are just too small. Also, puppies make terrible gifts. The holidays are very hectic and bringing a puppy home is stressful under the best of circumstances, so just imagine what it will be like for the dog with so many people coming and going and so much going on! And do you really want to have to care for a puppy while getting ready for or recovering from the holidays?

First and foremost, if you can't afford anymore then $400, you will not be able to afford the vet bills associated with a dog, let alone one labeled as a ';teacup';. My friend's boyfriend ended up buying her a teacup yorkie, and guess what? The dog died at about 9 months of age, and they are out several thousand dollars from vet bills. They have spoken to many different people about this issue, who also purchased dogs from pet stores and online BYBs, and the stories they tell are heart breaking.
Please please, please, do proper research on a dog. Talk to a veterinarian, and see what they say. This may spare you and your daughter a lot of heartache.
If you don't want to hear something, then don't ask! $400.00 will get you nothing but a puppy mill dog. And that 400.00 will turn into thousands in vet bills because they always have health as well as behavioral and other problems.
You say you have already been scammed..didn't you learn your lesson?
Small yorkies yes, teacup variety are imbred, and from puppy mills.
You are not going to find a *teacup* anything for $400.
Im in Australia and they are asking ridiculious prices like $1200-$1800.
None of these *breeders* you are asking about are *reliable*, honest, knowledgable or ethical.
People like you keep these breeders in buisness. You really have no idea, do you?
Aren't they usually a lot more expensive since they are bred to be smaller than the normal ones. Please try not to be so aggressive on this, the people answering these questions will know what a teacup yorkie is. We are not stupid.
You shouldn't have made a promise you couldn't necessarily keep.
Doesn't matter if you don't want to hear there is no such thing as a teacup size in any breed. It's the truth.
You buy an undersized runt and you are getting scammed again. I doubt you will get a pure bred yorkie for under $400 in any case.
Ok I won't tell you that there is no such thing, actually there is. It is a poorly bred yorkie. Check you local shelters, do not buy from BYB, PuppyMillers or on the Internet. You get burned!!!!
I am actually NOT going to type what else I think.
Sorry, I don't know of any because it's not my idea of a real dog.
To groom one of those with tiny little chicken bones legs grosses me out! I bet those legs could snap like a wishbone, YUK! They never seem to stand with a straight back either...always hunched over like they are sick!
LOL, ';reliable'; breeders do NOT sell ';teacup'; anything.
If you insist on a ';teacup'; you are asking to be scammed.
I dont know where you live... I live in Tampa and my sister bought one last year and her's was $900 - I dont know where you are going to get one for $400

check shelters
well if you want to no there mane hometown go to ask.com and search them
Yorkies only come in ONE size.. anyone selling a ';teacup'; one is scamming you anyways into buying an unhealthy runt.. even if you find one for your price range, you will end up with huge vet bills. It doesnt matter if your mind is made up or not.. there is no such thing as a ';teacup';.. if you were to look at the registration papers (if the dog has any), you'd see that its just registered as a Yorkshire Terrier.. ';teacup'; wont be found anywhere on the paperwork. Yorkies are already small dogs tho at 7 pounds or less.
I know someone who got a ';teacup'; chihuahua.. the puppy did not even live a full week.. it spent 6 days in the vet hospital with hypoglycemia before it died. The breeder would not refund or reimburse his money, nor would she offer a replacement puppy.
You wont find a quality Yorkie for that price.. reputable breeders put a LOT of money into their dogs. They do genetic health tests to assure health and put money into pre-natal care. Yorkies are not cheap to breed.. they often need cecarians, and have small litters. You can expect to pay well over $1,000 to obtain a healthy puppy. Even at that price a breeder still does not make any money off the litter.
For your price.. you'd be better off to try shelter or rescue.. you can probably find one for around $300 or so thats already spayed/neutered, microchipped and current on shots.. quite a deal for all the vet care included!
Do be aware tho, a reputable breeder or a rescue will not likely adopt or sell a dog as a Christmas present, you may have to let your girls know that one is coming AFTER the holidays.. surprise them with some puppy supplies. In all reality its best to wait until after Christmas is over anyways to bring a new dog home.. holidays are a stressful time, and going to a new home is stressful to a dog.. the transition will be better for the dog if you wait until the household is back to a ';normal'; routine.
Stay away from anyone offering a ';free/cheap'; yorkie for the cost of shipping.. these are scams. Most of them are located out of Camaroon or somewhere in Africa, but I've recently heard of them claiming to be out of parts of the US or Canada, and the only info they provide is the phone number to the ';shipping company'; that has a ';worldwide'; phone number.
Unfortunately, there's no way you'll find one for that cheap. Any Yorkie that is really going to that small will be at least $700 and that'd be really cheap. You may be able to find a regular Yorkie though for around $400. You have to be so careful about be scammed. You also want to make 100% sure that it is not a puppymill puppy. You sound desperate and that worries me because you could fall prey to being scammed again or buying a puppy that appears healthy but is really not well and dies shortly after. I bought a teacup Maltese for $1000 and I thought that the breeder was reputable but she wouldn't let me back to look at her kennel because she said it ';got the dogs too excited'; and just let me see the pups. Well, I bought it and the pup died 3 days later after the 24 hr. warranty because of a CONGENTITAL heart defect. THESE TEACUP BREEDS ARE VERY SUCCEPTIBLE TO CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS BECAUSE THEIR LITTLE HEARTS ARE JUST NOT PROPERLY FORMED BECAUSE OF HOW SMALL THEY ARE. I just stress this because you may want to reconsider getting such a small dog. Yes, it's cute to have something that small but really, a 8 week old regular Yorkie pup is pretty tiny too! I spent another $2000 trying to keep the Maltese alive and I never got my money back from the breeder. Turned out that the kennel was really a puppy mill. Here's what you MUST do (I'm serious).
#1 You have to go to the breeders and ask to see all of his/her dogs and where they are kept and make sure that everything is clean and they don't have too many dogs.
#2 I would DEFINITELY recommend only getting a dog from a breeder that raises them all indoors when it comest to toy breeds
#3 If she doesn't want you to see some of the dogs or gives you ANY sort of excuse thetn that's a red flag
#4 Make sure the puppy has been examined by a vet and has had its first shots and been de-wormed and have this on paper
#5 I recommend a warranty that covers congenital problems that the puppy was born with and at the very least offers a replacement. Make sure that this is in writing
#6 NEVER EVER meet the breeder somewhere or send money or wire money to anyone. You pay for the pup at the breeder's house. Even if they live far!
Have you considered a Yorkie mix puppy? There's an adorable designer breed called a Shorkie that's a Shih-tzu mix and they can be really small too! Here's a site where you can search by breed and location.http://www.puppyfind.com/ (this is a popular site)
Here's some Teacup Yorkie breeders but I don't know them.
http://yorkiesbyelainea.com/3/poll.htm
http://www.goldiesyorkies.com/index.htm
Once again, I doubt you'll find any less than $1000. I think you should just settle for a regular Yorkie puppy and just try to find one with parents on the small side. The teacup breeds are also so fragile and they really shake a lot and get cold. A toy breed that is just a few pounds bigger will be a lot healthier and playful. Your kids will still love it, I guarantee it. And you can still dress it up and bring it with you in a purse. Trust me. I think you should look at other breeds though. Yorkies are really not the best breed for kids. If you like small breeds, I'd recommend a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. This is one of the new ';cool'; breeds to own. They are super smart, great with kids, don't bark often, and are just adorable. Yorkies can be very yappy and snappy and are NOT good playmates especially for young kids. I would NOT recommend a Yorkie in a household with those under the age of 8 years old. Here's the King Charles Cavalier Spaniel.
http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/images5/CavK鈥?/a>
http://www.akc.org/breeds/cavalier_king_鈥?/a>
However, if your kids are older than 8 and you have your heart set on a Yorkie, I can try to help you find a small one around $400. What state do you live in and what states would you be willing to travel to though?
GOOD LUCK! And remember to really think this all through. I don't want you or your kids to go thru the heartache I did for buying a teacup puppy that appeared healthy but was just too small and died. It was a very traumatic and costly mistake. Have a good Christmas.
http://www.puppyfind.com/
Sorry, but there IS no such thing. To tell you there is would be a lie. You can buy a runt Yorkie with Teacup stamped across it's cage door from any pet store or backyard breeder. Make very good friends with your vet. You'll be seeing alot of him. You already know the scam aspect of puppy mills and BYB's so why do it again. Check with shelters and breed rescues to see if any of these little darlings ended up there from a raid or an unsatisfied owner if you must have a tiny one. If you want a Yorkie, check with the AKC for reputable breeders.
Also, it isn't wise to bring a new dog into a household during Christmas. There's too much going on and it stresses the dog. You could end up with some hard to break bad habits. I know tv makes it look so cute for a puppy with a big red bow to jump out of a box on Christmas morning but like most things on tv, it's fiction and doesn't really happen that way. Wait till after New Years and get a real Yorkie from a real breeder so your kids will have a nice dog they can love for many years. Really, is it going to be fun for the girls to have a dog who's sick all the time?
http://www.ytca.org/
I just got this video from the ASPCA on giving pets for presents. Please watch it before you get your dog.
http://www.aspca.org/site/PageServer?pag鈥?/a>
That's just it, there is no such thing as a Tea-cup any breed. It's called a teacup because it's so tiny, but ask the AKC and they will tell you they do not recognize ';tea cup'; as a breed anything.
People call them teacups to make them sound cute, but it's just the small runt of the litter bred with another runt to make more runts. And I'm sorry but you will NEVER find a ';teacup'; yorkie for $400, when they put the word ';teacup'; in front of the breed they suddenly Jack the price up to $1500.00 and guess what, idiots pay that much for a dog.
Please don't give a dog for Christmas, it's the worst time to bring a new puppy into a house, there is too much going on too many people in the house visitors etc, a puppy will stress out too much, get stepped on, ignored, eat something it shouldn't etc. Wait until after Christmas to bring the dog home when its calm and not hectic and you have the time to devote to housebreaking and settling the dog in.
Make sure that you understand that when you buy a dog for your children that the care, and training and vet bills will be your responsibility, kids say they will take care of it but when they have to take it outside to potty 20 times a day including the middle of the night, the novelty quickly wears off. When you have to clean up pee and poop off of your rug because the children do not know how to housebreak, when they start smacking it for pottying in the house because Yorkies are NOTORIOUSLY hard to housebreak, and the dog becomes aggressive and bites them, what then?
Just look for a BYB [back yard breeder] selling ';regular'; yorkies for $400 trust me its still a small dog, it won't get above 10lbs and your girls will not know the difference.
GL
Go to puppyfind.com. That is where I found my own dog, who is a mini schnauzer. Just make sure you talk to the people and go see the dog first if possible. I was looking at the yorkies and I actually found one for $400. Here is the breeders website:
http://www.puppyfind.com/redirect/?acct_鈥?/a>
I think they are in Arizona. I don't know where you live, but I hope this helps.
Have you already checked on line for one if so not really sure where else you can look other than calling all pet stores good luck hope you find one for x-mas

Yorkies only come in ONE size.. anyone selling a ';teacup'; one is scamming you anyways into buying an unhealthy runt.. even if you find one for your price range, you will end up with huge vet bills. It doesnt matter if your mind is made up or not.. there is no such thing as a ';teacup';.. if you were to look at the registration papers (if the dog has any), you'd see that its just registered as a Yorkshire Terrier.. ';teacup'; wont be found anywhere on the paperwork. Yorkies are already small dogs tho at 7 pounds or less.
I know someone who got a ';teacup'; chihuahua.. the puppy did not even live a full week.. it spent 6 days in the vet hospital with hypoglycemia before it died. The breeder would not refund or reimburse his money, nor would she offer a replacement puppy.
You wont find a quality Yorkie for that price.. reputable breeders put a LOT of money into their dogs. They do genetic health tests to assure health and put money into pre-natal care. Yorkies are not cheap to breed.. they often need cecarians, and have small litters. You can expect to pay well over $1,000 to obtain a healthy puppy. Even at that price a breeder still does not make any money off the litter.
For your price.. you'd be better off to try shelter or rescue.. you can probably find one for around $300 or so thats already spayed/neutered, microchipped and current on shots.. quite a deal for all the vet care included!
Do be aware tho, a reputable breeder or a rescue will not likely adopt or sell a dog as a Christmas present, you may have to let your girls know that one is coming AFTER the holidays.. surprise them with some puppy supplies. In all reality its best to wait until after Christmas is over anyways to bring a new dog home.. holidays are a stressful time, and going to a new home is stressful to a dog.. the transition will be better for the dog if you wait until the household is back to a ';normal'; routine.
Stay away from anyone offering a ';free/cheap'; yorkie for the cost of shipping.. these are scams. Most of them are located out of Camaroon or somewhere in Africa, but I've recently heard of them claiming to be out of parts of the US or Canada, and the only info they provide is the phone number to the ';shipping company'; that has a ';worldwide'; phone number.
Unfortunately, there's no way you'll find one for that cheap. Any Yorkie that is really going to that small will be at least $700 and that'd be really cheap. You may be able to find a regular Yorkie though for around $400. You have to be so careful about be scammed. You also want to make 100% sure that it is not a puppymill puppy. You sound desperate and that worries me because you could fall prey to being scammed again or buying a puppy that appears healthy but is really not well and dies shortly after. I bought a teacup Maltese for $1000 and I thought that the breeder was reputable but she wouldn't let me back to look at her kennel because she said it ';got the dogs too excited'; and just let me see the pups. Well, I bought it and the pup died 3 days later after the 24 hr. warranty because of a CONGENTITAL heart defect. THESE TEACUP BREEDS ARE VERY SUCCEPTIBLE TO CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS BECAUSE THEIR LITTLE HEARTS ARE JUST NOT PROPERLY FORMED BECAUSE OF HOW SMALL THEY ARE. I just stress this because you may want to reconsider getting such a small dog. Yes, it's cute to have something that small but really, a 8 week old regular Yorkie pup is pretty tiny too! I spent another $2000 trying to keep the Maltese alive and I never got my money back from the breeder. Turned out that the kennel was really a puppy mill. Here's what you MUST do (I'm serious).
#1 You have to go to the breeders and ask to see all of his/her dogs and where they are kept and make sure that everything is clean and they don't have too many dogs.
#2 I would DEFINITELY recommend only getting a dog from a breeder that raises them all indoors when it comest to toy breeds
#3 If she doesn't want you to see some of the dogs or gives you ANY sort of excuse thetn that's a red flag
#4 Make sure the puppy has been examined by a vet and has had its first shots and been de-wormed and have this on paper
#5 I recommend a warranty that covers congenital problems that the puppy was born with and at the very least offers a replacement. Make sure that this is in writing
#6 NEVER EVER meet the breeder somewhere or send money or wire money to anyone. You pay for the pup at the breeder's house. Even if they live far!
Have you considered a Yorkie mix puppy? There's an adorable designer breed called a Shorkie that's a Shih-tzu mix and they can be really small too! Here's a site where you can search by breed and location.http://www.puppyfind.com/ (this is a popular site)
Here's some Teacup Yorkie breeders but I don't know them.

Once again, I doubt you'll find any less than $1000. I think you should just settle for a regular Yorkie puppy and just try to find one with parents on the small side. The teacup breeds are also so fragile and they really shake a lot and get cold. A toy breed that is just a few pounds bigger will be a lot healthier and playful. Your kids will still love it, I guarantee it. And you can still dress it up and bring it with you in a purse. Trust me. I think you should look at other breeds though. Yorkies are really not the best breed for kids. If you like small breeds, I'd recommend a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. This is one of the new ';cool'; breeds to own. They are super smart, great with kids, don't bark often, and are just adorable. Yorkies can be very yappy and snappy and are NOT good playmates especially for young kids. I would NOT recommend a Yorkie in a household with those under the age of 8 years old. Here's the King Charles Cavalier Spaniel.

However, if your kids are older than 8 and you have your heart set on a Yorkie, I can try to help you find a small one around $400. What state do you live in and what states would you be willing to travel to though?
GOOD LUCK! And remember to really think this all through. I don't want you or your kids to go thru the heartache I did for buying a teacup puppy that appeared healthy but was just too small and died. It was a very traumatic and costly mistake. Have a good Christmas.

Sorry, but there IS no such thing. To tell you there is would be a lie. You can buy a runt Yorkie with Teacup stamped across it's cage door from any pet store or backyard breeder. Make very good friends with your vet. You'll be seeing alot of him. You already know the scam aspect of puppy mills and BYB's so why do it again. Check with shelters and breed rescues to see if any of these little darlings ended up there from a raid or an unsatisfied owner if you must have a tiny one. If you want a Yorkie, check with the AKC for reputable breeders.
Also, it isn't wise to bring a new dog into a household during Christmas. There's too much going on and it stresses the dog. You could end up with some hard to break bad habits. I know tv makes it look so cute for a puppy with a big red bow to jump out of a box on Christmas morning but like most things on tv, it's fiction and doesn't really happen that way. Wait till after New Years and get a real Yorkie from a real breeder so your kids will have a nice dog they can love for many years. Really, is it going to be fun for the girls to have a dog who's sick all the time?

I just got this video from the ASPCA on giving pets for presents. Please watch it before you get your dog.

That's just it, there is no such thing as a Tea-cup any breed. It's called a teacup because it's so tiny, but ask the AKC and they will tell you they do not recognize ';tea cup'; as a breed anything.
People call them teacups to make them sound cute, but it's just the small runt of the litter bred with another runt to make more runts. And I'm sorry but you will NEVER find a ';teacup'; yorkie for $400, when they put the word ';teacup'; in front of the breed they suddenly Jack the price up to $1500.00 and guess what, idiots pay that much for a dog.
Please don't give a dog for Christmas, it's the worst time to bring a new puppy into a house, there is too much going on too many people in the house visitors etc, a puppy will stress out too much, get stepped on, ignored, eat something it shouldn't etc. Wait until after Christmas to bring the dog home when its calm and not hectic and you have the time to devote to housebreaking and settling the dog in.
Make sure that you understand that when you buy a dog for your children that the care, and training and vet bills will be your responsibility, kids say they will take care of it but when they have to take it outside to potty 20 times a day including the middle of the night, the novelty quickly wears off. When you have to clean up pee and poop off of your rug because the children do not know how to housebreak, when they start smacking it for pottying in the house because Yorkies are NOTORIOUSLY hard to housebreak, and the dog becomes aggressive and bites them, what then?
Just look for a BYB [back yard breeder] selling ';regular'; yorkies for $400 trust me its still a small dog, it won't get above 10lbs and your girls will not know the difference.

Go to puppyfind.com. That is where I found my own dog, who is a mini schnauzer. Just make sure you talk to the people and go see the dog first if possible. I was looking at the yorkies and I actually found one for $400. Here is the breeders website:

Yorkie for sale is 10 month old?
where can i sell my 10 month yorkie male in orlando Yorkie for sale is 10 month old?
If you list your puppy on graig's list, be prepared to get non stop e-mails from some of the wierdiest people in the world. Just last week I thought I wanted to find a new home for my shepherd or a rescue shelter. I got hate email from so very uniformed animal activists and people begging for a free dog . When I tried to ask them questions, I was told ';What the hell do you care where she is going? You are getting rid of her';. I got many such responses. So just check them out really good. I never did get any info on the rescues. But after weighting out my options, I decided to keep her and do the best I can with her.Yorkie for sale is 10 month old?
Craigslist is your best bet.
You can go through the rescue center by you and ask if you could put up a notice on their boards. Also you could put an add on craigslist, george.net classifieds, the newspaper, or you could explain to the resscue center that you can't keep your dog anymore and they will take it.
The newspaper, craigslist, etc. Just make sure he's going to a good home!
Try giving him to a rescue near where you live. That way you can be almost sure that he goes to a good home.

Good luck with that...there is no such thing as a 'teacup' yorkie.
What you are looking for in such a tiny dog is a runt of the litter. Some will sell you one for an outrageous price, or you could do the sensible thing and go to your local shelter and save a dog.
Sorry to sound harsh but it makes me upset that a dog will lots of potential health complications is sold as something 'special'. Not soLooking for a tea cup yorkie for sale in sc?
There is no such thing as a ';teacup'; Yorkie. It's a marketing term used by unethical breeders to describe dogs bred to be extremely small--something no reputable breeder would ever do. The term is actually taboo within the Yorkie community.
I would suggest that before you actively decide to aquire and make a long term committment to a Yorkie, you take the time to educate yourself on the breed first. It will better prepare you for what you are in store for and enable you to be able to determine a quality specimen of the breed when you begin to actively search for your dog. Then take your time to seek out a reputable breeder.Looking for a tea cup yorkie for sale in sc?
there is no such thing as a teacup yorkie.
Teacup yorkies are regular sized yorkies that are bred, the runt of the litter is taken, and bred with another runt from another litter, and so on down the line to make the smallest Yorkie possible.
in fact, in some cases, they take the runt of the litter, breed them with the runt of the litter, then take the runts of that litter and breed with another runt of another litter. and so on down the line.
They generally don't live as long as an average Yorkie simply because their immune systems are that of a premature baby all of their lives.
Imperial Shih Tzus, Tea Cup Yorkies... these are poorly bred dogs that are given cute names to put a heaftier price on the dog, a price they're not truly.
These irresponsibly bred dogs are not recognized by the AKC or the British Kennel Club
no such thing as a ';teacup'; yorkie.
Yorkies come in ONE size.. ';teacup'; is just a label used by irresponsible breeders to sell sickly runts for a higher price.
