Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Houma, 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. A Yorkie's long, beautiful, silky coat sheds very little, which is why the breed is 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 it's their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family that really win people over. Their love of cuddles and being near you all the time is the icing on the cake. Yorkies adapt easily to most families. Because responsible breeders are so rare across the country, finding a reputable Yorkie breeder in the Houma, Louisiana area can be tough. That's why we take great pride in bringing our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Houma. We want every family to find a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

Why You'll Love Our Puppies
At The Puppy House, we take care to breed and raise our Yorkies the right way. The standards we follow go well beyond the basics. We genetically test all of our adult dogs, and each one comes from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Each of our dogs is well cared for and has plenty of room to play and socialize.
Every puppy takes part in Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises done in the first few weeks of life. Socialization is another essential step, and it lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as puppies grow. They play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. It's great for socialization, and it gives them plenty of exercise too.
We encourage you to visit us and pick out your puppy in person if you can. It's a chance to see our home, meet our dogs, and get to know us face to face. We take placing 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.
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.
Yorkie Puppy Delivery to Houma, Louisiana: Costs and Timing
Ground transport to your door
Houma 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 Houma 910 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 Houma also stops in , including Bayou Cane LA, Thibodaux LA, Bayou Blue LA, Raceland LA, Morgan City LA, Larose LA, Galliano LA, Schriever LA, Cut Off LA, Gray LA, Patterson LA, Chackbay LA, Berwick LA, Bayou Vista LA, Mathews LA, Bourg LA, Chauvin LA, Lockport LA, Amelia LA, Lafourche Crossing LA, Montegut LA, Golden Meadow LA, Bayou L'Ourse LA, Labadieville LA, Lockport Heights LA, Presquille LA, Dulac LA, Bayou Country Club LA, Choctaw LA, Supreme LA, Kraemer LA, and Siracusaville LA, and the fee is the same anywhere in Terrebonne 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 Houma, 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 17 to 19 hours each way from Houma, 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, Houma 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.
