Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in East Chicago, IN
Find Out Why We Love Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. People with allergies are often pointed toward Yorkies, since their beautiful, long, silky coat sheds very little. Don't let their size fool you. Yorkies typically weigh 7 pounds or less, but they have a feisty, bossy, big-dog attitude. Yet what really wins people over is their sweet disposition and the deep bond they form with their family. Then there's their love of cuddling and staying close all the time, which is the icing on the cake. They quickly become part of most families. Reputable Yorkie breeders can be hard to find in the East Chicago, Indiana area, since there are so few responsible breeders nationwide. For this reason, we're proud to offer our carefully bred Yorkie puppies to families in East Chicago. We believe every family deserves 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. Each of our adult dogs is genetically tested and comes from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Each dog in our care is well looked after 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. Socialization is another essential step, and it lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as puppies grow. Playtime happens in the backyard, where our puppies explore with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. That playtime is great socialization, and it gives them plenty of exercise too.
Feel free 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. We put a lot of thought into placing our Yorkies, and to us it's more than a one-time sale. We love making new friends, keeping in touch, and seeing our puppies grow up in loving homes.
All of our puppies get their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam before they go home. You can rest easy knowing you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to be part of your family.
What Delivery to East Chicago, Indiana Costs and How Long It Takes
Indiana is one of the few states where all three options make sense, so it's worth reading through before you decide what fits East Chicago.
Farm pickup
You drive to Sugarcreek by appointment. The puppy goes home with you the same day. From East Chicago that's 313 miles, or 5 to 7 hours each way. You get to see where the puppy was raised, go over the vaccination records and microchip registration with us face to face, and leave with a bag of the food the puppy has been eating, a toy, and a blanket that smells like the litter.
Home delivery by ground
A professional pet transport service drives the puppy to your door in a climate controlled van, in an individual carrier, with a veterinary check before departure and updates along the way. Indiana falls in our regional tier at a flat $350, and Lake County is no exception, whether the address is in East Chicago or over in , including and Whiting IN. Transport leaves on Tuesdays, and because your state is one of the shorter legs on the route, Indiana stops tend to come early in the run. Most families across the country have their puppy within about three days of departure. We confirm the timing on the phone rather than promising a date in writing.
Flight nanny
A trained handler carries the puppy in the cabin beside them, never in cargo, and hands it to you at baggage claim. Most of these are done in a single day. For East Chicago, the workable arrival points are Gary Chicago International Airport, and Chicago Midway International Airport. The puppy needs to be at least eight weeks old, under twenty pounds including the carrier, and traveling with a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian. Flight nanny costs more than ground and is quoted per flight, so we price it out once we know the airport.
What we usually suggest
If 5 to 7 hours each way sounds like a long day rather than an overnight, come get the puppy yourself. Meeting the litter is worth the drive. If it sounds like more car time than you want, ground delivery is the better fit, and it costs the same from anywhere in the state. One scheduling note that catches people out: most of Indiana runs on Eastern time, but the counties up by Chicago and the ones around Evansville are on Central, so we confirm arrival windows in your local time before anyone sets off.
We send you off with the food the puppy already knows. Walk on a harness rather than a collar from day one, in the carrier and out of it, because this breed is prone to tracheal problems and neck pressure is the easiest part of that to avoid.
