Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Lee's Summit, MO
Find Out Why We Love Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. This breed is known for its long, beautiful, silky coat, and because it sheds very little, it's often recommended for people with allergies. Yorkies may be small, typically weighing 7 pounds or less, but they have a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. But their sweet temperament and the deep bond they create with their family are what win people over. Their love of snuggling and sticking close all the time is the cherry on top. They're a great match for most families. Tracking down a reputable Yorkie breeder in the Lee's Summit, Missouri area can be challenging, since responsible breeders are so rare across the country. This is why we take great pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Lee's Summit. Our goal is for every family to have access to a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

Why Our Puppies Stand Out
At The Puppy House, we do things the right way when it comes to breeding and raising Yorkies. We set our standards well above the basics. All of our adult dogs are genetically tested, and they come from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Each of our dogs is well cared for and has plenty of room to play and socialize.
All our puppies receive Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises we do in the first few weeks of life. Another important step is socialization, which lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as they grow. Our puppies play and explore in the backyard alongside kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. This playtime is great socialization, and it gives them plenty of exercise too.
You're welcome to visit us and pick out your puppy in person if you can. You'll be able to look around our home, see our dogs, and meet us face to face. Placing our Yorkies in new homes is something we take seriously, and it's more than a one-time sale for us. We love making new friends, keeping in touch, and seeing our puppies grow up in loving homes.
Our puppies receive their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam before they go home. You can rest assured that you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to be part of your family.
Bringing a Puppy Home to Lee's Summit, Missouri: Costs and Travel Times
Pickup in Sugarcreek
You're welcome to come get the puppy yourself, by appointment, at 559 Pleasant Valley Road NW in Sugarcreek. For a family in Lee's Summit that means 686 miles and 13 to 15 hours in each direction, so it's a comfortable overnight at best and a hard drive to justify at worst. You get to see the kennel space, meet the parents where possible, and go over the microchip registration and the guarantee at the kitchen table. Most Missouri families pick one of the other two options.
Ground Home Delivery
Ground transport is what most Missouri families choose. A pet transport service drives the puppy door to door in a climate controlled van, in an individual carrier, with a veterinary check before departure and updates along the way. Missouri falls in the national delivery tier at a flat $450, and that covers the whole state, Lee's Summit and , including Raytown MO, Pleasant Hill MO, Greenwood MO, and Lake Winnebago MO included. Transport leaves on Tuesdays, and most families have the puppy in their arms within about three days of departure. Nobody in Cass County has to drive to an airport.
Flight Nanny
A flight nanny costs more and is quoted per flight, but it usually finishes in one day. The handler keeps the puppy in the cabin under the seat, never in cargo, and the handoff happens at baggage claim. For Lee's Summit, the airports that take these flights are Kansas City International Airport, and Columbia Regional Airport. The puppy has to be at least eight weeks old, under 20 pounds including the carrier, and carrying a health certificate from a licensed vet. A Yorkie clears that limit easily.
Which One We Would Suggest
For Lee's Summit we point families toward ground delivery. At $450 flat it costs less than a flight for a single puppy, the door to door handoff skips the airport entirely, and a Midwest route means the puppy is not on the road nearly as long as one heading to the coast. Families in a hurry are the ones who get the most out of a flight nanny, since a same day arrival beats waiting on the van. One thing worth knowing about this breed in transit is blood sugar. Very small puppies need small meals often, and the handlers feed on a schedule for that reason rather than waiting for a rest stop.
