Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Okemos, MI
Find Out the Reasons We Love Yorkies
The Yorkshire Terrier, also known as the Yorkie, holds a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. This low-shedding breed has a long, beautiful, silky coat and is often recommended for people with allergies. Yorkies typically weigh 7 pounds or less, but you'd never guess it from their feisty, bossy, big-dog attitude. But the biggest reason people fall in love with them is their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family. Their love of snuggling and sticking close all the time is the cherry on top. They adapt well to most families. Reputable Yorkie breeders are hard to come by in the Okemos, Michigan area, since there are so few responsible breeders nationwide. That's why we take great pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Okemos. Our goal is to help every family bring home a healthy, well-raised puppy they can rely on.

Discover Why Our Puppies Stand Out
At The Puppy House, we make sure our Yorkies are bred and raised the right way. Our standards are much higher than what's required. We only work with genetically tested adult dogs from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Every dog here gets great care and has plenty of room to play and socialize.
Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises done in the first few weeks of life, is part of every puppy's routine. Another important step is socialization, which helps shape good behavior and habits as they grow. They play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. It's great socialization, and it's a fun way for them to get exercise too.
If you're able to, we'd love for you to visit and choose your puppy in person. That way, you can meet us face to face and see our home and our dogs. We take placing our Yorkies seriously, and we see it as much more than a one-time sale. We love keeping in touch with the new friends we make and watching our pups grow up in loving homes.
Before going home, every puppy gets their first round of vaccinations and is checked thoroughly by a veterinarian. You can rest easy knowing you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to be part of your family.
Getting a Yorkie Puppy Home to Okemos, Michigan
Three ways work here, and which one we suggest for Okemos mostly comes down to how you feel about the drive.
Pickup at the farm is free and it's the option we point Michigan families toward first. The drive is short by our standards. From Okemos it's 211 miles, which works out to 3 to 5 hours each way. You get to see where the puppy was raised, go over the vaccination records and microchip registration at the table, and drive home with the puppy in your lap rather than in a van.
Home delivery by ground is our most popular option. It costs a flat $350 anywhere in Michigan, so a Ingham County address pays the same whether it's in Okemos or out in , including East Lansing MI, Meridian MI, and Alaiedon MI. A professional transport service drives door to door in a climate controlled van, the puppy travels in an individual carrier after a pre transport vet check, and you get updates along the way. Transport leaves on Tuesdays, and most families are holding their puppy within about three days of departure, often sooner given how short the run north is.
Flight nanny is the fast option and gets quoted per flight. A handler carries the puppy in the cabin the whole way, never in cargo, and hands it to you at baggage claim, usually the same day. Yorkies make this easy because a puppy and an airline approved soft carrier together come nowhere near the twenty pound cabin limit. Okemos families would meet the nanny at Capital Region International Airport, and Bishop International Airport. Health certificates are arranged before travel, and weather delays are worth planning around in winter.
