| My first yorkie was Oscar...got him over 14 years ago for $200.
We were young and "broke" and the breeder was a nice lady right here in our town.....She told us Oscar would probably be rather large, but she did not want us to buy the tiny one...since we had no experience with all the sugar issues and all. He ended up being over 13 pounds...(at least 3 pounds of that was table food...)
I bought Lil Bit Feb 4th, 05...paid $600 for her....I belive she will be really tiny...the breeder did not want to sell her to me because she thought she was going to die....just not growing right.....she has done well here with us...
I spoke with the breeder and told her how well she was doing....she was MAD!!!!!! Right after I got her she received a call from someone in Georgia wanting the pup....would pay $1500 for her!!!!!
I know now there really are people who will breed a tiny thing like Lil Bit just to get more $$$$$$$$ !!!!!!!!
I intended to breed her once so my daughter and sis-in-law could have a yorkie....(and maybe one more for me)....but if she is not big enough I WILL NOT BREED HER.......my family is mad....but I will just get another. |
