Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Roanoke, VA
Find Out Why We Love Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. Yorkies have a beautiful, long, silky coat, and since they shed very little, they're often recommended for people with allergies. Even though they typically weigh 7 pounds or less, Yorkies have a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. What really wins people over, though, is their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family. Even better, they love to cuddle and stay close all the time. They quickly become part of most families. Since there are so few responsible breeders across the country, finding reputable Yorkie breeders in the Roanoke, Virginia area can be challenging. That's what makes us so proud to offer our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Roanoke. 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. For us, the basics are only the starting point. 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 enjoy plenty of room to play and socialize.
During their first few weeks, our puppies go through Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises. Socialization is another important piece, and it lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as they grow. Our puppies get to play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. It's excellent socialization, and it gives them lots of exercise as well.
We invite you to come visit and pick out your puppy in person if you can. Visiting lets you see our home and our dogs and meet us face to face. We take placing our Yorkies seriously, and to us it's more than a one-time sale. We love making new friends and staying in touch as our pups grow up in loving homes.
Each puppy leaves with their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam completed. You can bring your new Yorkie home knowing they're healthy, happy, and ready to be part of your family.
How Your Yorkie Gets to Roanoke, Virginia: Delivery, Nanny, or Pickup
Home delivery by ground
A pet transport service drives the puppy door to door in a climate controlled van, with an individual carrier, a veterinary check before departure, and updates along the way. Virginia falls in our regional tier, so the fee is a flat $350 to any address in the state, so nothing changes between Roanoke and , including Lynchburg VA, Cave Spring VA, Hollins VA, Vinton VA, Clifton Forge VA, Cloverdale VA, Blue Ridge VA, North Shore VA, Daleville VA, Laymantown VA, Buchanan VA, Union Hall VA, Penhook VA, Westlake Corner VA, Selma VA, and Montvale VA, or for any other stop in Roanoke city. Vans leave Sugarcreek on Tuesdays. Because the state sits on the eastern side of the route, most Virginia deliveries land the next day, and almost all families have the puppy in hand inside about three days of departure. This is the option most people pick.
Picking up at the farm
Driving to Sugarcreek yourself works well for a good share of the state. Roanoke is 240 miles out, which is 4 to 6 hours each way. Four or five hours is an easy day. Seven or eight is a long one in the car with a young puppy. Visits are by appointment, and you get to see the parents, walk the property, and go through the health records and microchip paperwork in person.
Flight nanny
A handler carries the puppy in the cabin of a commercial flight, never in cargo, and hands it over at baggage claim. Most are complete the day they start. The airline limit is 20 pounds including the carrier, so a Yorkshire Terrier at four to seven pounds has room to spare, and the soft carrier fits under the seat with no trouble. Health certificates are arranged on our end before travel. Common arrival airports for Roanoke families are Roanoke–Blacksburg Regional Airport, and Lynchburg Regional Airport - Preston Glenn Field. Flight nanny is quoted per flight and costs more than ground, and it's the better answer when you want the puppy fast or a weekend drive is out of the question.
What we would suggest
If 4 to 6 hours each way is a manageable day trip for you, pickup is worth doing when your schedule allows. If it isn't, ground delivery is the sensible pick, and at $350 it saves the whole round trip. Walk the puppy on a harness rather than a collar from the first trip to the car, since pressure on a Yorkie's throat is the one contributing factor to collapsing trachea that owners can control.
