Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Columbus, NE
Find Out Why We're Crazy About Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, better known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts here at The Puppy House. This breed is known for its long, beautiful, silky coat, and because it sheds very little, it's often recommended for people with allergies. Even though they typically weigh 7 pounds or less, Yorkies have a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. But what truly wins people over is their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family. Their love of cuddling and staying close all the time is the icing on the cake. Yorkies fit right in with most families. Since there are so few responsible breeders across the country, finding reputable Yorkie breeders in the Columbus, Nebraska area can be challenging. That's why we take real pride in providing our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Columbus. Our goal is for every family to have access to a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

Why Families Choose Our Puppies
At The Puppy House, breeding and raising Yorkies the right way is what we do. We hold ourselves to standards that go well beyond the basics. Every adult dog in our program is genetically tested and comes from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Our dogs get great care and plenty 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. Next comes socialization, another important step that lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as they grow. The puppies get to play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. It's great socialization, plus it gives them plenty of exercise.
If you can make the trip, we invite you to visit us and pick out your puppy in person. It's a great chance to see 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 making new friends and keeping in touch so we can watch our pups grow up in loving homes.
Before going home, each puppy is given their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam. You can be sure you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to become part of your family.
Getting a Yorkie Puppy to Columbus, Nebraska
Columbus is 822 miles from our farm, and I-80, the road that runs the length of Nebraska, is also most of the route out from Ohio. That makes the drive easy even though it's a long one. Three ways home are available. The one you use gets settled on a phone call after the puppy is reserved.
Home delivery by ground
A professional transport service takes the puppy door to door in a climate controlled van, its own carrier, a vet check before departure, and updates as it goes. Nebraska falls in the national delivery tier at a flat $450, and that's the rate for Columbus, for , including Norfolk NE, York NE, Schuyler NE, David City NE, Exeter-Fairmont Consolidated NE, Stromsburg NE, Granville NE, Genoa NE, Osceola NE, Shell Creek NE, Humphrey NE, Utica NE, Shelby NE, St. Edward NE, Clarksville NE, Alexis NE, Clarkson NE, Butler NE, Savannah NE, Silver Creek NE, Howells NE, Exeter NE, Lost Creek NE, and Oconee NE, and for every other address in Platte County. Transport leaves on Tuesdays and most families have their puppy in their arms within about three days. The driving itself is 15 to 17 hours from Sugarcreek to Columbus.
Flight nanny
A trained handler carries the puppy in the cabin of a commercial flight, seated with the puppy under the seat in an airline approved soft carrier, never in cargo. Same day is the usual outcome. For Columbus, the meeting point would be Lincoln Airport, and Central Nebraska Regional Airport. Handoff happens at baggage claim. The puppy needs to be at least eight weeks old, under 20 pounds with the carrier, and cleared by a licensed veterinarian with a health certificate. Cost is quoted per flight and sits above the ground option.
Pickup in Sugarcreek
Picking the puppy up yourself works too, by appointment. Families who do this see where the puppy was raised, meet us in person, and go over vaccination records, microchip registration, and the guarantee at the kitchen table. From Columbus it's two long days of driving round trip at the very least, so it's not the common choice here, but the invitation stands and a few families have taken it.
What we suggest for Columbus
Ground delivery is the sensible default for most of the state. It costs less than flying a nanny out, it puts the puppy at your door without an airport trip, and three days on the road with scheduled stops is easier on a small puppy than most people expect. Flight nanny makes more sense the farther west you are, where the van has extra hours to cover, or if you want the puppy home quickly. One thing worth knowing about the breed on a long trip is that very small puppies can drop their blood sugar when meals get missed, so transport drivers feed small amounts often, and we ask families to keep the first day or two at home quiet and to keep meals on schedule.
