Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale in University Place, WA
See Why We Love Yorkies
Yorkshire Terriers, also known as Yorkies, have a special place in our hearts at The Puppy House. The breed is often recommended for people with allergies thanks to its long, beautiful, silky coat that sheds very little. Even though most Yorkies weigh 7 pounds or less, they often act like big dogs, with an 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. They quickly become part of most families. Given how few responsible breeders there are across the country, finding reputable Yorkie breeders in the University Place, Washington area can be difficult. This is exactly why we take great pride in offering our carefully bred Yorkshire Terrier puppies to families in University Place. We want each family to have access to a healthy, well-raised puppy they can trust.

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 expect much more from ourselves than the basics. We only work with genetically tested adult dogs from strong bloodlines known for great temperaments. We take good care of our dogs and give them plenty of room to play and socialize.
From the start, every puppy goes through Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS), a series of gentle handling exercises done in the first few weeks of life. Socialization is another important step, and it builds the foundation for good behavior and habits as they grow. Our pups play and explore in the backyard with kids, adults, and our own vaccinated adult dogs. This helps with socialization and gives them plenty of exercise too.
If you can make the trip, we invite you to visit us and pick out your puppy in person. During your visit, you can see 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, hearing from them over the years, and watching our pups grow up in loving homes.
Each puppy receives their first round of vaccinations and a thorough veterinary exam before going home. You can be sure you're bringing home a healthy, happy Yorkie who's ready to become part of your family.
Puppy Delivery to University Place, Washington: Flight Nanny, Ground Transport, and Farm Pickup
Flight nanny. Almost every Washington family gets this recommendation from us, and University Place 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 Pierce County fly puppies into Tacoma Narrows Airport, 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 University Place and in , including Tacoma WA, Artondale WA, Gig Harbor WA, Fircrest WA, Steilacoom WA, Wollochet WA, Maplewood WA, Rosedale WA, Wauna WA, Fox Island WA, Key Center WA, Canterwood WA, Home WA, Purdy WA, Anderson Island WA, Ruston WA, and Vaughn WA alike. Transport leaves Ohio on Tuesdays, and the drive to University Place is 2066 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 University Place, 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.
