Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Portland, OR
See the Reasons We Love Yorkies
The Yorkshire Terrier, also known as the Yorkie, holds a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. Yorkies are often recommended for people with allergies because their long, beautiful, silky coat sheds very little. They may be tiny, typically weighing 7 pounds or less, but Yorkies have a feisty, bossy, big-dog attitude. Still, their sweet nature and the deep connection they form with their family are what really win people over. The fact that they love to cuddle and stay close all the time is the icing on the cake. Most families find that Yorkies fit right in. With so few responsible breeders across the country, finding a reputable Yorkie breeder in the Portland, Oregon area can be a challenge. That's exactly why we take great pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkie puppies to families in Portland. Our goal is to help every family bring home a healthy, well-raised puppy they can rely on.

See What Sets Our Puppies Apart
We breed and raise our Yorkies the right way here at The Puppy House. We hold our program to standards well beyond the basics. We make sure all of our adult dogs are genetically tested and come from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Our dogs are well cared for and have lots of space to play and socialize.
Each puppy completes Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises done in the first few weeks of life. Socialization is just as important, and it lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as they grow. They get plenty of time to play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. Besides being great socialization, it gives them plenty of exercise.
If possible, we invite you to come visit us and choose your puppy in person. You'll get to see our home and our dogs and meet us face to face. We take placing each Yorkie seriously, and we see it as more than a one-time sale. Making new friends, keeping in touch, and watching our pups grow up in loving homes are all things we love.
Before going home, each puppy receives their first set of shots and a thorough veterinary exam. You can rest easy knowing you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to be part of your family.
Flying or Driving a Puppy to Portland, Oregon, and What Each Costs
Three ways are open to Portland families, and at this distance most land on one of the first two.
Flight nanny. The majority of Oregon addresses do best this way. A trained handler flies with the puppy in the cabin of a commercial flight, never in cargo, and hands the puppy to you at baggage claim. From Clackamas County, the practical airports are Portland International Airport, and Salem-Willamette Valley Airport/McNary Field. Most of these deliveries finish the same day, with photos and video along the way. Eight weeks old at minimum, under 20 pounds with the carrier, and cleared on a health certificate by a licensed vet. A flight nanny costs more than ground transport and is quoted per flight, since the price follows the route.
Home delivery by ground. A professional pet transport service drives the puppy door to door in a custom climate controlled van, with an individual carrier, a veterinary check before departure, and updates while they're on the road. Oregon comes in at $450, flat, and that's the fee in Portland and in , including and Maywood Park OR. Transport leaves Sugarcreek on Tuesdays and the drive runs 2078 miles, which puts most Oregon families at two to three days depending on the route. No airport trip on your end, which is why some families pick it even knowing it takes longer.
Farm pickup. You're welcome at the farm by appointment to meet the puppy where it was raised and go over vaccination records, microchip registration, and the guarantee face to face. With 41 to 43 hours of driving one way from Portland, very few Oregon families make that trip, though a handful have collected a puppy while already traveling through the Midwest.
A grown Yorkshire Terrier weighs four to seven pounds, so a puppy is far under the airline weight limit and fits easily in a soft carrier under the seat. What does need watching is blood sugar, which can dip in a very small puppy after a stressful travel day or a missed meal, so plan a small meal soon after you get home and a quiet first evening. If the puppy arrives into a wet Oregon afternoon, towel the coat down before it settles in rather than letting it dry damp. Winter storms over the Cascades can push a flight. A little flexibility around the date helps in January and February. Method, timing, and cost all get confirmed on a call before anything is booked.
