In the process of deciding on a Yorkshire Terrier breeder it is always best to have a good idea of the information you need to know in order to help you quiz a potential Yorkshire Terrier breeder and that is when you need a little help. It is always a good idea to ask the right questions of potential Yorkshire Terrier breeders so that you know exactly what kind of breeder you are dealing with. This is an important decision for both you and your new pet so take your time and plan ahead.
It is always a good idea to find out what national breeder registry your potential breeder is listed with. A registry sets the breeding standards that all of its member breeders follow and if a breeder is not listed with a registry then it is difficult to tell what standards they are using. It is good to know the standards your breeder bases their business on.
In all cases a reputable Yorkshire Terrier breeder will offer any new owner ongoing advice and support as they try and raise their new pup. A good breeder is concerned with the health and well being of all the animals they sell and if the breeder you are talking to does not offer ongoing support to new owners then it may be time to start looking around for a new Yorkshire Terrier breeder that does offer that support.
A respectable breeder will make sure that all new owners leave with their pup and detailed care instructions for their new dog in writing. Many will also make sure you leave with a food sample as well to help you know what to feed your new dog and how to take care of them.
This includes detailed care instructions for your new dog in some form of written format and it also includes making sure that you leave with a sample of your dog’s food so you know what to feed your new pet. If these are not standard practices of your prospective breeder then it is time to move on.
You want to go with a Yorkshire Terrier breeder that cares and one of the things you can ask a prospective Yorkshire Terrier breeder is if they offer a policy where they will take back the animal if you can no longer care for it.
You won’t get your money back but at least you know that the dog will not be abandoned and that it will be given a second chance at a good home. This is not a prerequisite for any breeder but the best ones offer this service.
It is always a good idea to spend a lot of time talking with prospective Yorkshire Terrier breeders and just see how you feel with them and how you like talking to them. At the end of the day you will still have to be in contact with your breeder for some time so if you are not comfortable with any of the ones you are considering then it may be wise to not do business with them when it comes to your family pet.
