But please note, their credit offers are base off of credit scores.<\/p>\n<p>I always tell people, if you need to get financing, it just isn't the right time for you to get a new baby. You should save up for a few months (or 1-2 years). Then, once you have accumulated your budget amount, you can then buy. This will save you from getting into debt, and it will allow you to research breeders first.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card  sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=#collapse177911 href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  aria-expanded=\"false\"><i class=\"ea-expand-icon fa fa-plus\"><\/i> Do you have Teacup or Mini Yorkies for sale?<\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse \" id=\"collapse177911\" data-parent=#sp-ea-1779><div class=\"ea-body\"><p>Sorry... there is no such thing as Teacup or Mini Yorkies. Do I have tiny puppies? Yes... most of my puppies tend to stay between 3-5lbs full grown. But about a quarter of my babies do stay in the 2-3.5lbs range. Several times a year, I do have babies that do chart around 2lbs full grown.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card  sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=#collapse177912 href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  aria-expanded=\"false\"><i class=\"ea-expand-icon fa fa-plus\"><\/i> Why can't I get my Yorkie at 8wks old or younger? <\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse \" id=\"collapse177912\" data-parent=#sp-ea-1779><div class=\"ea-body\"><p>I'm sorry. Please do your research. It's against the law to sell puppies younger than 8wks old. Not just that, but a lot of my babies tend to be tinier, so they are at higher risk for low blood sugar. This can easily kill a puppy. They also need that extra time to learn to be social.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please read this article: https:\/\/familypetplanet.com\/when-can-yorkie-puppies-leave-their-mother\/<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card  sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=#collapse177913 href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  aria-expanded=\"false\"><i class=\"ea-expand-icon fa fa-plus\"><\/i> I have an emergency and can't get the puppy yet, can you hold him\/her for a few more weeks? <\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse \" id=\"collapse177913\" data-parent=#sp-ea-1779><div class=\"ea-body\"><p>Yes, I have no problem keeping a puppy for an addiction couple months, but please note, you will need to make an additional payment for your puppy to do so. Why? Because this tells me you're for sure getting your little one. So many times people ask me to keep their puppy for an additional couple months only for them to disappear. It's not fair to the pup or me, to not find them a new home when they are young.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"ea-card  sp-ea-single\"><h3 class=\"ea-header\"><a class=\"collapsed\" data-sptoggle=\"spcollapse\" data-sptarget=#collapse177914 href=\"javascript:void(0)\"  aria-expanded=\"false\"><i class=\"ea-expand-icon fa fa-plus\"><\/i> I have bigger dogs, should I get a Yorkie? <\/a><\/h3><div class=\"sp-collapse spcollapse \" id=\"collapse177914\" data-parent=#sp-ea-1779><div class=\"ea-body\"><p>Honestly, it depends on the breeds in question and their weights. For example, I wouldn't recommend a 3lb Yorkie to be with a 100lb dog, but a 5lb Yorkie might be a good option for a home with a 20lb poodle. This is why I do ask new owners about their current pets.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frequently Asked Questions Below are some of the frequently asked questions I get.
