I would never transport a puppy like that. It can make them sick and most online sites like those are scams. Yorkies are popular enough that you can find one in the states.
DUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes it is a SCAM!!!!!
You are very touched in the head if you think they really have any puppies and that they would be sending them to you!!!!
Definitely a scam. Cease all contact with this individual. They will go to great lengths to scam you like this and a lot of it can seem legit. Google “puppy scams”. There is a lot of this going on lately.
It’s a scam, and a very common one. Western Union is commonly used for these types of scams. You wire money, they take it, they may even send you a fake airline confirmation saying the dog is on its way, but you’ll never get one. NEVER purchase a puppy from overseas unless it is from an extremely reputable show breeder and you have verification of that. Generally quality puppies are only imported for show. If you are looking for a Yorkshire terrier puppy, contact the breed club for a referral to a reputable breeder. http://www.ytca.org/mainview.htm Keep in mind that you get what you pay for. If you buy cheap, you mostly end up with obscenely high vet bills treating the medical issues that the breeder did not bother to test for. And, as far as scams go, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
Scam.
