| 2.8 lbs Chorkie mix...should I get him? This little guy looks adorable, and I'm talking to the lady about purchasing him for my birthday. (She's agreed to come down on her ridiculous price). What do you think? She's assured me he's healthy but he sure is small... Teacup Angels - Adults For Sale at Teacup Chihuahuas, Shih Tzus, Yorkies & Exotics

| Not trying to be negative BUT: The add states: No bad habits whatsoever. He does have a bellyband on in the 2nd picture. Not neutered - He must mark his territory if he has a bellyband on. Just thought you might want to consider that. He is very, very overpriced also. BUT very very cute! Good Luck to you at whatever you decide.

| I definitely think he's extremely overpriced but am trying with work with her on getting the price down.... She said he goes potty outside but she keeps a belly band on him inside cause he's so small and has a small bladder. I don't expect him to be perfect. But I definitely couldn't pay anywhere near that either!

Donating YT 30K Club Member | He is a cutie. I just would be afraid of him marking. She is asking a lot of money for an older mixed breed.

I have 1 unneutered male & 3 females. Scruffy marks his territory inside & outside. It is really bad when one of the girls are in heat! He is trained for outside & peepads when we are not home BUT he likes the kitchen table legs, anything that gets on the floor out of place like a school bag, grocery bag, etc....

| He's adorable, but he's very overpriced. And from the name of the site, she sells "teacups". She doesn't seem to reputable to me.

| yes he's cute but don't crumble..Hate to put it like this BUT he is a "mutt". We have to stick together and not pay high dollar for mixed breeds..that is what pure breds are for. Gee, I miss the good ol' days when mutts were free..haha..She needs to come way, way down. Good luck. |

| He's very cute and extremely small. That is an absolutely ridiculous price, agreed. Why is she charging so much for a MIX? IMO, people sell these dogs as "designer breed" b ut really aren't they the perfect definition of a MUTT? Not to offend you, I love all dogs, I have a mutt myself, that is gorgeous and perfect...but I just think all these "chorkie" "porkie" "dorkie" whatever, it's out of hand.

YT 1000 Club Member | Personally, I won't spend that much, or even half of that on a mix breed... There are plenty of full blooded dogs that are about the same size full grown and cost less... But it's your prerogative.... I met the sister of that breeder one time. She came into the store I work at to buy him little clothes... (he was about 2.5 lbs at that time) Do what everyou want! Don't let people talk you out of buying a baby you really want if he's healthy and you trust the breeder... |

| This sounds exactly like a BOB. If this "only" two year old intac male is so perfect, why is she selling him and not studing him? When a male has been used for stud, they WILL mark up your home. I think your ready to be burned if you get him. There are many, many nice baby Yorkies for sale that are a lot less expensive and with health guarantee's. |
