  You didn't pay too much.  We all fall in love with them, and then pay whatever we can.  Dad and I were talking about how much Mom paid for her yorkie, and when I told him, he nearly threw a fit (10 years ago - $500).  I told him that was NOTHING now days.  You paid for the puppy, the lineage, the papers, the breeding of parents, grandparents etc., and hopefully for good health.  Not too much at all for a companion for 10-15 years hopefully.  I would n't tell everyone  - I'd just say "what I had to" - someone might be looking to steal her.
