Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Hammond, LA
Find Out What We Love About Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, or Yorkies for short, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. This breed has a beautiful, long, silky coat that sheds very little, making it a popular recommendation for people with allergies. Most Yorkies weigh 7 pounds or less, but their big-dog attitude can be feisty and bossy. But what really wins people over is their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family. And their love of cuddling and staying close all the time is the icing on the cake. They fit in well with most families. Finding a reputable Yorkie breeder near Hammond, Louisiana can be a challenge, since there are so few responsible breeders across the country. That's why we're proud to bring our carefully bred Yorkie puppies to families in Hammond. We want every family to have a healthy, well-raised puppy they can rely on.

Why You'll Love Our Puppies
At The Puppy House, we take care to breed and raise our Yorkies the right way. We go well beyond the basic standards. Our adult dogs are all genetically tested, and they come from strong bloodlines known for wonderful temperaments. Each dog in our care is well looked after and has 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. Socialization is another important step, and it helps build good behavior and habits as our puppies grow. They play and explore in our backyard with kids, adults, and our vaccinated adult dogs. It's great socialization, and it gives them plenty of exercise too.
If you're able to, we'd love for you to visit and choose your puppy in person. That way, you get to see our home and our dogs and meet us face to face. Placing our Yorkies in new homes is something we take seriously, and it's more than a one-time sale for us. 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 receives their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam. You can bring your new Yorkie home knowing they're healthy, happy, and ready to be part of your family.
Yorkie Puppy Delivery to Hammond, Louisiana: Costs and Timing
Ground transport to your door
Hammond families pick this one more than any other. A professional pet transport service drives the puppy door to door in a custom climate controlled van, with an individual carrier, a veterinary check before departure, and updates from the road. Transport leaves Sugarcreek on Tuesdays. Louisiana falls in our national delivery tier at a flat $450, and because the Deep South is at the end of the route, with Hammond 849 miles from the farm, plan on two to three days from departure rather than the next day service the East Coast gets. The van that comes to Hammond also stops in , including McComb MS, Covington LA, Ponchatoula LA, Amite City LA, Franklinton LA, Natalbany LA, Kentwood LA, Magnolia MS, Livingston LA, Independence LA, Summit MS, Tylertown MS, Killian LA, Roseland LA, Albany LA, Folsom LA, Tangipahoa LA, Madisonville LA, Tickfaw LA, Greensburg LA, and Springfield LA, and the fee is the same anywhere in Tangipahoa Parish.
Flight nanny
A trained handler carries the puppy in the cabin of a commercial flight, in an airline approved soft carrier under the seat, and never in cargo. Handoff happens at baggage claim, usually the same day. For Hammond, we would fly the puppy into Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport, and Baton Rouge Metropolitan Airport. The puppy needs to be at least eight weeks old, under twenty pounds with the carrier, which no Yorkie comes close to, and traveling with a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian. Flight nanny is quoted per flight and costs more than ground, and everyone involved needs some flexibility if weather pushes a departure.
Picking up at the farm
Come to Sugarcreek by appointment and take the puppy home yourself. It's 16 to 18 hours each way from Hammond, so this is the least common choice, but a few families build it into a trip north. You get to see where the puppy was raised, go over the vaccination records, microchip registration, and health guarantee at the kitchen table, and leave with a small bag of the food the puppy has been eating, a toy, and a blanket that smells like the litter.
What we usually suggest
Ground transport is the sensible pick for nearly every Louisiana address, Hammond included. It's the cheaper of the two long distance options, it ends at your front door instead of an airport curb, and a Yorkie travels well in a van with a driver who stops on a schedule. Families who want the puppy home in a single day often go with a flight nanny instead. One breed note worth knowing either way: young Yorkies can drop their blood sugar after a stressful stretch or a missed meal, so transport keeps them on small frequent feedings the whole way, and we ask you to do the same for the first few months.
