Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Westerly, RI
Discover Why Yorkies Are So Special to Us
At The Puppy House, Yorkshire Terriers, often simply called Yorkies, are very close to our hearts. This low-shedding breed has a long, beautiful, silky coat and is often recommended for people with allergies. A Yorkie typically weighs 7 pounds or less but has a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. Even so, what really wins people over is their sweet nature and the strong bond they form with their family. Their love of cuddling and being close by all the time is the icing on the cake. They slip right into family life in most homes. Reputable Yorkie breeders are hard to come by in the Westerly, Rhode Island area, since there are so few responsible breeders nationwide. That's why we're proud to offer families in Westerly our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies. Our aim is to give every family access to a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

The Reasons Our Puppies Stand Out
At The Puppy House, we always do things the right way when it comes to breeding and raising Yorkies. Our standards go far beyond the basics. Our adult dogs come from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments, and all of them are genetically tested. 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. Socialization is also an important step, since it lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as puppies grow. Our puppies enjoy playing and exploring in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. They get great socialization this way, along with plenty of exercise.
We invite you to come visit and pick out your puppy in person if you can. That way, you can check out our home and our dogs and meet us face to face. We take placing our Yorkies to heart, and to us it's more than a one-time sale. We love building new friendships, keeping in touch, and watching our pups grow up in loving homes.
Before going home, each puppy receives their first set of shots and a thorough veterinary exam. You can rest easy knowing you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to be part of your family.
Puppy Delivery to Westerly, Rhode Island: Fees and Travel Times
Your puppy comes home to Westerly one of three ways, and we settle on which one over the phone once the puppy is reserved rather than making you choose at checkout.
Home delivery by ground. Most Rhode Island families pick this one. A professional 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. The fee to Rhode Island is $350. Transport leaves Sugarcreek on Tuesdays and comes into the state on I-95, and the state is compact enough that Westerly, , including Hopkinton RI, Charlestown RI, Pawcatuck CT, North Stonington CT, Montauk NY, Bradford RI, Ashaway RI, Stonington CT, and Quonochontaug RI, and the rest of Washington County all sit inside a single afternoon of stops. East Coast addresses come first on the route, which usually puts arrival the day after departure. We give that as an estimate, never as a scheduled time, since routes and weather move it around.
Flight nanny. A trained handler carries the puppy in the cabin of a commercial flight, never in cargo, and hands the puppy over at baggage claim. Most flights are same day. From Westerly, plan around Westerly State Airport, and Rhode Island T. F. Green International Airport, and being in the smallest state has an advantage here, since no household in Rhode Island is far from a terminal. The price sits above ground delivery and gets quoted per flight, since it follows the airfare. Requirements are a puppy at least eight weeks old, under 20 pounds including the carrier, a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian, and some flexibility if weather delays a departure. A Yorkshire Terrier clears the weight limit with room to spare, which is part of why this option works so well for the breed.
Farm pickup. You're welcome to come to Sugarcreek by appointment and take the puppy home yourself. From Westerly that's 516 miles and 9 to 11 hours each way, so it's a weekend rather than an afternoon, but a few families make the trip because they want to see the farm and go over the records, microchip registration, and guarantee face to face.
Whichever method you choose, the puppy travels with its food, a toy, and a blanket that smells like its littermates.
