I'm not talking about when a breeder or puppy has special circumstances - In thi scase - we're talking about just 2 dogs in one litter - and one HUGE price difference ? Is this not gouging ? a 3 THOUSAND difference in littermates ? Remember - there is no sure-fire guarantee of size.

To me - that's just opening the door for anyone to wants to say they have a very tiny yorkie just to pay for the cruise they've wanted to go on - not to mention all the breeders who AREN'T good ...and will intentionally hold food back to make puppies appear smaller. People will do terrible things for money -

I feel the intentional breeding of small yorkies is a dis-service to the breed - When it comes to anything UNDER 3 pounds - it gets scary.


I understand what you are saying and I have some of the same concerns. Just saying that she has the right to charge what she wants. I can't say if it is "worth it" or not? I can only say (without a doubt) that $4000. isn't worth it to ME.

And I wonder if some of the anger this subject stirs up is caused by so many posters NOT getting what they paid for.

I wonder how many YT people got exactly the dog they thought they bought? oh well. save that for another thread. I am guessing this one will get pulled soon. take care all.

bye for now
