I sell Yorkie pups to people for pets only. I give one of these books to every person that buys a puppy. I have been told over and over how useful and informative it is.
An excellent beginners guide

This book is an excellent guide for new Yorkie owners. It discusses all the practical things you need to know before purchasing a Yorkie, including feeding, grooming, training, and health. It is well-organized and very readable. A new Yorkie owner will probably want to also purchase a longer, more detailed book, but this one is a great starter -- enough info to take good care of your Yorkie, but simple enough to avoid confusion and information overload.
