Unfortunately, it seems that anywhere in Southern Calif, the price for a purebred Yorkie is over the top. However, I have been out to Cigale's place (Elite Petite), and her Yorkies are bred in a very "homey" environment. She is extremely careful with the tinies, often not letting them go until they are four months or more. The two I purchased from her, 18 months apart, were average size (not teacups), and I got a very good impression of her set up. Of course, that was some years ago, but I did speak with her late 2006 when my little Tigger was dying. She seemed to be the same caring individual/breeder and gave me good advice, even though I was not adopting a pup from her at that time.
