Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Jefferson City, MO
Find Out Why We Love Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. With their long, beautiful, silky coat and very little shedding, Yorkies are often recommended for people with allergies. Yorkies typically weigh 7 pounds or less, but they have a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. But underneath that attitude, what really wins people over is their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family. Their fondness for cuddling and staying close all the time is the icing on the cake. They fit easily into most families. Searching for a reputable Yorkie breeder in the Jefferson City, Missouri area can be challenging, given how few responsible breeders there are nationwide. That's the reason we take so much pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Jefferson City. We want every family to be able to bring home a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

Why Our Puppies Stand Out
At The Puppy House, we do things the right way when it comes to breeding and raising Yorkies. We go well beyond the basic standards. All the adult dogs in our program are genetically tested and come from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Every dog here is well cared for and has lots of room to play and socialize.
We put every puppy through Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises done in the first few weeks of life. Socialization is another important step that helps our puppies develop good behavior and habits as they grow. Our puppies explore and play in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. It's a great way to socialize them, and they get plenty of exercise too.
If possible, we invite you to come visit us and choose your puppy in person. That way, you can see our home and our dogs and meet us face to face. We take placing each Yorkie seriously, and we see it as more than a one-time sale. We love forming new friendships, staying in touch, and seeing our pups grow up in loving homes.
Our puppies receive their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam before they go 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 Jefferson City, 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 Jefferson City that means 577 miles and 11 to 13 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, Jefferson City and , including Columbia MO, Rolla MO, Fort Leonard Wood MO, Fulton MO, St. Robert MO, Waynesville MO, Sherrill MO, Salem MO, Eldon MO, Piney MO, Osage Beach MO, Holts Summit MO, California MO, Camdenton MO, St. James MO, Licking MO, Owensville MO, Village of Four Seasons MO, Houston MO, Lake Ozark MO, Richland MO, Roubidoux MO, Wardsville MO, Linn MO, Belle MO, Dixon MO, Lynch MO, St. Martins MO, Taos MO, Crocker MO, Carroll MO, Russellville MO, Iberia MO, New Bloomfield MO, Vienna MO, Doolittle MO, and Bland MO included. Transport leaves on Tuesdays, and most families have the puppy in their arms within about three days of departure. Nobody in Callaway 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 Jefferson City, the airports that take these flights are Columbia Regional Airport, and Waynesville-St. Robert Regional Airport-Forney Field. 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 Jefferson City 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.
