| My search for yorkie female may get to be expanded. I just talked to my dad and we discussed our limited options of getting a female yorkie puppy in the Houma/Thibodaux area. And now he told me he is willing to travel a little further maybe to Lafayette or possibly the Alexandria area. The only thing is that we works offshore 7/7. He leaves for 7 days starting tomorrow. So, we can only go on his week in. I remember a member telling me about a lady in the Bunkie area that is a really good breeder. What are her prices? Because my dad still does not want to pay a fortune for one. $1000 and up is out of the question, but I have seen some advertised around the Lafayette area for about $650. It does not have to have papers. We are not going to breed her. Just a pet. We plan to get her spayed at 6 months old just like Lacey. And we are not searching for the "a tiny one" either. 4 or 5 pounds full grown. I am never going to give my search until I have her. But, I am hoping it does not take a year or more to find her either.

| The dog will be for the whole family. The only thing is if I move out which I know I need to because I am already 29, then I can't take the dog with me. My mom won't allow it. But, I am not even close to being able to being able to move out until I find a better paying job. Yes, I plan to help as much as I can. Income tax is just around the corner. I work at Sears and hours got cut down to 25 a week. And I only make $6.55 an hour. I am trying to find another job. Just can't quit my job until I find something else. Preferrably at a vets office or something.

| Good luck on your search. I am sure you will find what you are looking for soon enough. I remember that I was looking for a breeder. I wan't planning on getting a puppy until sometime next year. Then one day here on YT, I found an awesome person who had 3 puppies, and was willing to work with me on the price and we have since become good friends! The plus is, she is only 2 hours away! Anyway, good luck again, keep us posted.

| I know the NEW prices of yorkies. The going price here is around $900 for females. Sometimes as high as $1500. I convinced my mom that we could pay $900 if we go half and half. My grandpa gave my mom a very nice lump of cash for Christmas. Although, she does not want to use all of it on a dog. The dog will not be used over my head just so I can stay at home. I am sure even if I move out, it will be no more than 15 minutes away from home. It will have to be a place that allows pets. (there are some nearby) And I will start saving again for my own yorkie. And I could stop by my parents anytime I want to see Chloe if I move out. I did take my civil service test in Baton Rouge. I did put my name in the data base looking for a state job. I am going to get my friend's mom to help me with resume's because she is a teacher.

| Good luck in your search! I admire your patience in waiting for exactly what you want and can affoard, it will make her that much more special when you get her! You have my sympathy in trying to get out on your own. I would not want to be starting out today, that's for sure. My husband and I were just discussing how we could not affoard to buy the house we are in at the price it's worth now, even though we are in better paying jobs than when we bought it 14 years ago! It's crazy! Good luck, anyway!
