I'm in Wisconsin too. Eau Claire. There's only one pet store that sells puppies and the yorkies I've seen there are at least $1,500 to $2,000. And the few breeders I've found around me (no one on here! ) are not the type of places I would buy a dog from. I learned my lesson from Bella's back yard breeder.

Personally, I think $1500 and up is a little exhorberant for me. I understand the whole supply and demand and costs involved in breeding but I think my husband would shoot me if I paid that much for a dog.
