[QUOTE=erickajm;2143426]Okay...lord, help me word this right so that my head is still intact after it is read....
I honestly think your average potential yorkie owner isn't going to be able to afford a dog from a person who shows...Let's face it, we all think our puppies are cute...but people who show do as well and many have ribbons & trophies and such confirming it. But I am also discovering that there are tons of people that really don't care if they are registered...they just want a yorkie....I think I will leave that one alone for now.
I am one of those people. When I get one his papers I could care less about. I might be wrong, but his registration papers does not make him but his pedigree does. I would like to see his pedigree, and could care less for AKC registration. Prices are high on yorkies, I have had e-mails from $500 -$2500 breeders there are some I wouldn't give a $100 for and they have them at $1000. To me it is a shame that the Yorkie name is what puts a high price on some of these babies.
To someone stating about the weigh, I am one of those people that does ask My reason are I want the standard, 4 lbs- 7 lbs. I do not want a 15 lb yorkie, if I paid top dollar for a yorkie I would atleast want the standard. People do breed their 8 to 10 lb female with a smaller male and then state all puppies will be under 5 lbs. This shocks me everytime I see this. Sometimes you do find a breeder that cares and its not about making money its about making the breed better. I feel there are a lot of them on YT.
BTW this is a interesting topic
