I'm very grateful for the premium price some clients are willing to pay for the novelty of this tiny Yorkie. |
I dont agree with you at all. I can see a small amount being charged for extra care but not a larger amount. Also I am convinced breeders cant tell for certain when one is going to be a tiny. For example I have one that at 8 weeks was 12 ozs but she grew to 6 lbs in adulthood
