| How disgusting!! The pups dont look remotely happy nor do they look like a Yorkie. Ok, they look like really bad quality Yorkies. Notice that they are all Apri or Aca registered??? Major red flags!!!!!!! |

| I had to see what everyone was talking about. $6,000 for a Yorkie? Are these people crazy? Don't get me wrong. I love my babies very much, but to say pocketbook dogs, and then put a price tag like that on it. Wow! Poor dogs. I guess pocketbook dogs is the new name for them, instead of tea-cup Yorkies. Too many people have figured it out that there is no such thing as a tea cup. I can't say the size ever really bothered me. Whatever size they grew to be, then that is what they are. I just joined tonight, and I have been looking at everyones pictures of their babies. They are all so cute. Ya can't help but love them. |

| I have seen this website before while looking for yorkie mixed. I too agree that they are over priced. I am also concern about health issues in them since they may have to interbreed to maintain the blood line. |

Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | There is no end to GREED - Our country has put such a value on catchy phrases to get more of our money and it's up to the consumer to see thru the hype - Too bad so many don't and fall for it.... that's a disgusting site is right. |
