Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Oakton, VA
Find Out Why We Love Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. People with allergies are often pointed toward Yorkies, since their beautiful, long, silky coat sheds very little. Most Yorkies weigh 7 pounds or less, but their big-dog attitude 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 being close by all the time is the icing on the cake. They tend to fit right in with most families. Searching for a reputable Yorkie breeder in the Oakton, Virginia area can be challenging, given how few responsible breeders there are nationwide. That's why we're so proud to offer our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Oakton. It matters to us that every family has access to 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. For us, the basics are only the starting point. Each of our adult dogs is genetically tested and comes from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. We give our dogs 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, laying the groundwork for good behavior and habits as they grow. Our puppies play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. This time outside is great socialization, and it gives them plenty of exercise too.
We invite you to visit us and pick out your puppy in person if you can. You'll be able to look around our home, see 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 building new friendships, keeping in touch, and watching our pups grow up in loving homes.
Each puppy leaves with their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam completed. You can bring your new Yorkie home knowing they're healthy, happy, and ready to be part of your family.
How Your Yorkie Gets to Oakton, Virginia: Delivery, Nanny, or Pickup
Home delivery by ground
A pet transport 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. Virginia falls in our regional tier, so the fee is a flat $350 to any address in the state, so nothing changes between Oakton and , including and Fairfax VA, or for any other stop in Fairfax County. Vans leave Sugarcreek on Tuesdays. Because the state sits on the eastern side of the route, most Virginia deliveries land the next day, and almost all families have the puppy in hand inside about three days of departure. This is the option most people pick.
Picking up at the farm
Driving to Sugarcreek yourself works well for a good share of the state. Oakton is 256 miles out, which is 4 to 6 hours each way. Four or five hours is an easy day. Seven or eight is a long one in the car with a young puppy. Visits are by appointment, and you get to see the parents, walk the property, and go through the health records and microchip paperwork in person.
Flight nanny
A handler carries the puppy in the cabin of a commercial flight, never in cargo, and hands it over at baggage claim. Most are complete the day they start. The airline limit is 20 pounds including the carrier, so a Yorkshire Terrier at four to seven pounds has room to spare, and the soft carrier fits under the seat with no trouble. Health certificates are arranged on our end before travel. Common arrival airports for Oakton families are Washington Dulles International Airport, and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. Flight nanny is quoted per flight and costs more than ground, and it's the better answer when you want the puppy fast or a weekend drive is out of the question.
What we would suggest
If 4 to 6 hours each way is a manageable day trip for you, pickup is worth doing when your schedule allows. If it isn't, ground delivery is the sensible pick, and at $350 it saves the whole round trip. Walk the puppy on a harness rather than a collar from the first trip to the car, since pressure on a Yorkie's throat is the one contributing factor to collapsing trachea that owners can control.
