Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Richmond, KY
Learn Why We're So Fond of Yorkies
Here at The Puppy House, Yorkshire Terriers, also called Yorkies, hold a special place in our hearts. Along with their beautiful, long, silky coat, Yorkies shed very little, so they're often recommended for people with allergies. Despite typically weighing 7 pounds or less, Yorkies carry a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. Still, it's their sweet nature and the deep bond they share with their family that win most people over. Then there's their love of cuddling and staying close all the time, which is the icing on the cake. They settle in easily with most families. Locating reputable Yorkie breeders in the Richmond, Kentucky area can be challenging, as there are very few responsible breeders across the country. This is why we take great pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Richmond. Every family should have access to a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on, and that's what we're here to provide.
Our Available Yorkie Puppies In Richmond
Why Choose One of Our Puppies
Here at The Puppy House, we breed and raise our Yorkies the right way. Our standards are set well above the minimum. All of our adult dogs have been genetically tested and come from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Every dog here is well cared for and has lots of room 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 also an important step, since it lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as puppies 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.
We'd be happy to have you visit and pick out your puppy in person if you can. That way, you can tour our home, see our dogs, and meet us face to face. We take the placement of our Yorkies seriously, and to us it's more than a one-time sale. It means a lot to us to make new friends, keep in touch, and watch our pups grow up in loving homes.
Every puppy gets their first round of shots and a thorough veterinary exam before going home. You can be sure you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to become part of your family.
Yorkie Puppy Delivery to Richmond, Kentucky, and What It Costs
Home delivery to your door
$350, door to door, to Richmond or anywhere else in the state. That is the whole cost of getting your puppy home, and it's what most Kentucky families choose. A pet delivery service collects the puppy here on Tuesday morning and runs it down in a climate controlled van, in a carrier to itself, with the vans cleaned and disinfected between trips. Two drivers ride each one, so somebody is with the puppies the whole way. The service's own veterinarian goes over every puppy after pickup and before the van pulls out, and the driver calls as it gets close so you know when to be home.
Schedules close at noon on Monday for that week. Richmond is 237 miles from the farm, so families here are usually holding the puppy within a day or two of departure rather than waiting out a long haul. Around Madison County, the van also makes stops in , including Winchester KY, Berea KY, Somerset KY, London KY, Morehead KY, Mount Sterling KY, Corbin KY, Stanton KY, Mount Vernon KY, Irvine KY, North Corbin KY, Jackson KY, Jeffersonville KY, Owingsville KY, Beattyville KY, Manchester KY, Brodhead KY, Camargo KY, Clay City KY, Ferguson KY, East Bernstadt KY, Annville KY, Crab Orchard KY, Burnside KY, McKee KY, Science Hill KY, Ravenna KY, and Frenchburg KY.
Pickup at the farm
Pickup is free, and Kentucky is close enough that a fair number of families take it rather than wait on a van. From Richmond it's 4 to 6 hours each way. You get to walk the property, meet the mother where possible, and go through the vaccination records, the microchip paperwork and the guarantee at the kitchen table instead of over the phone. Visits run by appointment so the time is set aside for you properly rather than squeezed between chores. We're closed Sundays, and a message left then usually gets answered Monday.
Flight nanny
Ask and we'll arrange it. Only a handful of families a year go this way, since the drive is short enough that flying rarely buys much. A handler carries the puppy in the cabin beside them, never in cargo, and hands it over at baggage claim the same day. For Richmond, the workable airports are Blue Grass Airport, and Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport. Flights run $750 to $1,200 depending on the route and the airline.
