I just ran into someone who saw my 2 and was asking me about buying a Yorkie. She said, aren't they like $2000? I told her, yes, they can be, but if you pay that much make sure you see the parents, that they are AKC and preferably a show or serious breeder, not someone who decided their Yorkie was cute and needed to be a mom when then found out how much puppies are worth. I told her to make sure they check/OFC/xray the knees and I showed her Sammy's LP's. I told her how Loki was supposed to be 7 pounds, but he's 12 and we love him anyway. And how Sammy's coloring is beautiful but her knees are awful. And that they are both purebred AKC. Then she said she wanted a 10 pounder...so I told her... don't spend $2000
