Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Mercer Island, WA
See Why We Love Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. Yorkies have a beautiful, long, silky coat that sheds very little, and they're often suggested for people with allergies. For a dog that typically weighs 7 pounds or less, the Yorkie has a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. But what most people love is their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family. Then there's their love of cuddling and staying close all the time, which is the icing on the cake. They fit easily into most families. Finding a reputable Yorkie breeder in the Mercer Island, Washington area can be difficult, since there are so few responsible breeders across the country. That's the reason we take so much pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Mercer Island. We believe every family deserves access to a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

Why Our Puppies Are a Cut Above
At The Puppy House, we do things the right way when it comes to breeding and raising Yorkies. We hold our program to standards well beyond the basics. All the adult dogs in our program are genetically tested and come from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Our dogs get great care and plenty of room to play and socialize.
Our puppies each go 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 lays the groundwork for good behavior and habits as our puppies grow. The puppies play and explore in our backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. This helps with socialization and gives them plenty of exercise too.
We invite you to visit and choose your puppy in person whenever possible. That way, you can check out our home and our dogs and meet us face to face. For us, placing a Yorkie is a serious commitment and more than a one-time sale. We love making new friends, staying in touch, and watching our pups grow up in loving homes.
Every puppy gets their first round of shots and a thorough veterinary exam before going home. You can bring your new Yorkie home knowing they're healthy, happy, and ready to be part of your family.
Puppy Delivery to Mercer Island, Washington: Flight Nanny, Ground Transport, and Farm Pickup
Flight nanny. Almost every Washington family gets this recommendation from us, and Mercer Island is no exception. A trained handler carries the puppy in an airline approved soft carrier under the seat beside them, never in cargo, and hands the puppy over at baggage claim. Same day arrival is the norm. Families in King County fly puppies into King County International Airport - Boeing Field, and Seattle–Tacoma International Airport. The puppy needs to be at least eight weeks old, under 20 pounds including the carrier, which no Yorkie comes close to, and travel with a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian. Flight nanny costs more than ground transport and is quoted per flight, since the price follows the airfare.
Ground transport. A professional service drives the puppy door to door in a climate controlled van with an individual carrier, a veterinary check before departure, and updates along the way. The flat fee to Washington is $450, in Mercer Island and in , including Seattle WA, Bellevue WA, and Newcastle WA alike. Transport leaves Ohio on Tuesdays, and the drive to Mercer Island is 2050 miles, so plan on two to three days on the road. It costs less than flying and skips the airport trip entirely, which some families prefer even at the longer travel time.
Farm pickup. Collecting the puppy here yourself is welcome, by appointment. It's 40 to 42 hours one way from Mercer Island, but a few families build it into a wider drive or a visit with relatives. Coming here means meeting the puppy where it grew up and going through the health records, microchip registration, and guarantee in person.
Feed small meals often for the first few days after arrival. Toy breed puppies can drop their blood sugar after a long travel day, and frequent little meals are the simple prevention. Whichever method suits you, we settle the timing and the fee on the phone rather than at checkout.
