Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Ballwin, MO
Learn Why We Love Yorkshire Terriers
At The Puppy House, Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, are a breed that's very dear to us. This breed has a long, beautiful, silky coat and is often recommended for people with allergies because it sheds very little. Even though most Yorkies weigh 7 pounds or less, they often act like big dogs, with an attitude that can be feisty and bossy. But what really wins people over is their sweet nature and the close bond they build with their family. As a bonus, they love to cuddle and stay close all the time. For most families, a Yorkie fits right in. Finding reputable Yorkie breeders in the Ballwin, Missouri area can be challenging, since there are so few responsible breeders across the country. For that reason, we take great pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Ballwin. We want every family to be able to bring home a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

Find Out What Makes Our Yorkie Puppies Special
At The Puppy House, we care about breeding and raising Yorkies the right way. We go well beyond the basic standards. Each of our adult dogs is genetically tested and comes from strong bloodlines with a history of great temperaments. Each dog in our care is well looked after and has plenty of room to play and socialize.
Every puppy receives Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), which is a series of gentle handling exercises done in the first few weeks of life. We also focus on socialization, which lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as our puppies grow. Our pups play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. This playtime is great socialization, and it gives them plenty of exercise too.
If you can, we'd love for you to come see us and pick out your puppy in person. That gives you the chance to see our home and 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. We love meeting new friends, keeping in touch, and watching our puppies grow up in loving homes.
Each puppy has their first round of vaccinations and a full veterinary exam before going home. You can rest assured that you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to be part of your family.
Bringing a Puppy Home to Ballwin, Missouri: Costs and Travel Times
Pickup in Sugarcreek
You're welcome to come get the puppy yourself, by appointment, at 559 Pleasant Valley Road NW in Sugarcreek. For a family in Ballwin that means 492 miles and 9 to 11 hours in each direction, so it's a comfortable overnight at best and a hard drive to justify at worst. You get to see the kennel space, meet the parents where possible, and go over the microchip registration and the guarantee at the kitchen table. Most Missouri families pick one of the other two options.
Ground Home Delivery
Ground transport is what most Missouri families choose. A pet transport service drives the puppy door to door in a climate controlled van, in an individual carrier, with a veterinary check before departure and updates along the way. Missouri falls in the national delivery tier at a flat $450, and that covers the whole state, Ballwin and , including Chesterfield MO, Wildwood MO, Manchester MO, Ellisville MO, Murphy MO, Valley Park MO, High Ridge MO, Byrnes Mill MO, and Winchester MO included. Transport leaves on Tuesdays, and most families have the puppy in their arms within about three days of departure. Nobody in St. Louis County has to drive to an airport.
Flight Nanny
A flight nanny costs more and is quoted per flight, but it usually finishes in one day. The handler keeps the puppy in the cabin under the seat, never in cargo, and the handoff happens at baggage claim. For Ballwin, the airports that take these flights are St. Louis Lambert International Airport, and Scott AFB/Midamerica Airport. The puppy has to be at least eight weeks old, under 20 pounds including the carrier, and carrying a health certificate from a licensed vet. A Yorkie clears that limit easily.
Which One We Would Suggest
For Ballwin we point families toward ground delivery. At $450 flat it costs less than a flight for a single puppy, the door to door handoff skips the airport entirely, and a Midwest route means the puppy is not on the road nearly as long as one heading to the coast. Families in a hurry are the ones who get the most out of a flight nanny, since a same day arrival beats waiting on the van. One thing worth knowing about this breed in transit is blood sugar. Very small puppies need small meals often, and the handlers feed on a schedule for that reason rather than waiting for a rest stop.
