I can appreciate now more than ever the hard work that goes into breeding- I think its great that you put so much effort and work into this. I continue to learn more and more every day from this forum and to me that is the whole point. No- we all don't always agree, but aren't our different opinions what make this a great place??!!!!! I bought my Lexie from a local breeder. She was a true bargain at $575.00. We have ads in the paper on a regular basis for decent, healthy Yorkies between $500-$1000. In my humble opinion, it is important to be comfortable with the breeder you are buying from. If that means paying more, then thats what it means. I don't necessarily believe that the more you pay, the better dog you will have. That isn't always the case. You have to do your homework and make an informed decision- that is what ANY resposible, caring pet owner will do before purchasing a puppy. We are all here because of our love for the breed. At the end of the day, lets all focus on that!!
