In my area, pet stores sell yorkie pups for about $1800.00 to 2500.00 and up depending on the location of the store. I have even seen them as much as $4500.00 in an upscale area near me. These are poor quality, puppy mill yorkies who look tiny and darling at 6 weeks old, but usually turn out to be huge as adults if they live that long, and riddled with health problems for their entire miserable lives.
