I normally would read this thread and not respond BUT here I go.
I breed and sell Yorkies at a price that for California it is cheap, WHY? I don't ship, I require a home visit, I require an application filled out. Are my Yorkies better or worse than others NO!
As far as any Yorkie why not compare kids.
I had three and one cost way to much, I would have sold her but hubby wouldn't let me. Her ears were too big and she didn't sleep thru the night for a long time. She was a crier and had colic a lot.
People made dumb comments about her ears forever and as a teen I offered plastic surgery but she said NO these are the same as my dads ears and I love them. Smart kid!
The moral is who cares what a fur baby cost or what others think. A free one is as good as a 3000.00 one if it is loved and cared for. I find people put to much time into comparing looks, size, cost, etc.
PS!
