My opinion on the male/female thing is the females cost more because more people want them. Not to breed but more likely because they think males are harder to house train. They don't want a "marker". So the females are more expensive.
I personally don't try to educate everyone I meet. If they are buying a puppy from me -- then I take all the time in the world to make it clear what the standard is. |
Why do they even have to say "small"? Why can't they just say __ lbs? And to me, a breeder shouldn't have to advertise the SIZE of their Yorkies.. they should advertise the health testing, the pedigree, the adherence to standard. If it's that important to the buyer, they will ask the breeder.
