Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in Opelika, AL
Find Out Why Yorkies Have Our Hearts
At The Puppy House, Yorkshire Terriers, or Yorkies as they're often called, have a special place in our hearts. Yorkies have a long, beautiful, silky coat and are often recommended for people with allergies because they shed very little. They're small, usually weighing 7 pounds or less, but Yorkies have a big-dog attitude that can be feisty and bossy. But the real reason people fall for Yorkies is their sweet nature and the deep bond they form with their family. Even better, they love to cuddle and stay close all the time. Yorkies make a wonderful fit for most families. In the Opelika, Alabama area, reputable Yorkie breeders can be tough to find, since there are so few responsible breeders across the country. Because of this, we take great pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in Opelika. We want every family to have the chance to own a healthy, well-raised puppy they can count on.

Why Our Puppies Are Top Quality
We do things the right way at The Puppy House when it comes to breeding and raising Yorkies. Our standards go well beyond the basics. Each of our adult dogs is genetically tested and comes from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. Our dogs are well cared for and have plenty of room to run, play, and socialize.
Every puppy starts out with Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises done over the first few weeks. Another important step is socialization, which helps shape good behavior and habits as they grow. Our puppies spend time in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs, playing and exploring together. 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. It's a chance to see our home, meet our dogs, and get to know us face to face. We treat placing our Yorkies as more than a one-time sale, and we take it seriously. We enjoy gaining new friends, keeping in touch, and watching our pups grow up in loving homes.
Before going home, every puppy receives their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam. You can trust that you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to be part of your family.
Yorkie Puppy Delivery to Opelika, Alabama
Ground transport is how nearly every Opelika family brings a puppy home, and it's a flat $350 to any address in Alabama, Lee County included. A driver carries the puppy door to door in a climate controlled van, in an individual carrier, and sends updates along the way. Vans leave Sugarcreek on Tuesdays. Most families have their puppy within about three days of departure, and with Opelika sitting 580 miles from the farm, plan on two to three days rather than an overnight arrival. The same run reaches , including Auburn AL, Valley AL, La Fayette AL, Huguley AL, and Wadley AL, so the fee and the timing hold if you live just outside town. Toy breed pups can dip in blood sugar after travel, so meals stay small and frequent on the road and a bag of the food it's been eating goes along.
Farm pickup is open to anyone by appointment. From Opelika the drive is 11 to 13 hours each way, which for most families means a night somewhere along the route rather than a single day out and back. What the miles buy you is a walk around the property, a look at the parents, and the health records and microchip registration gone over in person.
Flight nanny is the third route. A handler carries the puppy in the cabin, never in cargo, and hands it over at baggage claim, usually the same day. For Opelika, the arrivals we would look at are Columbus Airport, and Montgomery Regional (Dannelly Field) Airport. Cost is quoted per flight and runs higher than ground, since it depends on the route and airline that day. A veterinary health certificate gets arranged ahead of travel, and the puppy needs to be at least eight weeks old and under 20 pounds including the carrier, a limit no Yorkie will ever test.
For Opelika, ground transport is the sensible pick. If 11 to 13 hours behind the wheel sounds like a fair trade for meeting us and seeing the farm, the drive up is worth thinking about on a free weekend, and if you'd rather have the puppy home the same day, ask us to price out a flight.
