Rachel. Your boy is beautiful. What a great deal $500. I agree there are back yard breeders or puppymills but if this guy has Yorkies as his pets and you've seen where your boy came from that you should feel comfortable. People can get a healthy happy Yorkie at a good price if they are patient and it does not always mean that they came from a puppymill or backyard breeder. You just have to use your judgment and check the breeder out first. Show Yorkies don't always guarantee a Yorkie with good health. My vet had a Golden Retriever in that came from the best lines and had the worse hip dysplasia ever seen. Best of luck with him. Elaine |
