If i sold puppies for like say for example 300.00 or less....just to put them in a good home...Do you think i would be looked down on?? or be considered a "backyard" breeder? I love dogs and I see sooo many go to useless ppl and would just want a loving family to bebale to have a purebred yorkie for not much money! See what i mean?? Kristy and Mason |
Kristy,
I am just going to answer honestly based on everything I've read on this board and elsewhere. Yes, I'm sad to say that people will probably think that something is wrong with your pups. Its very sad that people would think that, but I believe its true. Some people who have Yorkies have them for STATUS and the more they paid for their Yorkie(s), the happier they are. I got Stewie for a surprisingly low price. My breeder knew that I loved him and wanted me to have him, so he lowered the pirce and gave me a break in another repsect. I would never consider you a backyard breeder (hate that term by the way) if you did your research, bred to standard, gave a reasonable guarantee on the puppies and did some necessary testing on the parents & pups. I do see what you mean and I hope I helped.
