A price tag that big makes me ill. I have heard of puppies being born under an ounce...not still being only 1 oz at 8 weeks though!
The main problem is that every extreme teeny tiny(we're talking under 1 1/2 pounds, closer to 1 lb) full grown has such a short life span. They tend to pass away with no reason given.
Right now yorkies are hot. I'm guessing in a few years even the tiniest won't sell for that high. At least we can hope. Granted, not everyone should own a dog that small but come on, you can find the right home for a tiny and NOT charge an arm and a leg. When you charge $5,000+ for a pet quality that's greed, plain and simple, no matter what excuse you use. |
