You will quickly find out just how expensive it is to properly raise a litter of yorkies by the time you have all the testing done on your adults, the costs of all the vet visits for the puppies and heaven forbid something happen and you have to have an emergency spay or someone gets sick. There's so many other expenses as well. Having a proper place for your dogs to be, pens, bedding, grooming, whelping supplies, etc.

If they can't afford the puppy, can they afford to take care of it properly? Are you willing to take back every puppy you sell if they can't?

It's not that you want to charge a low price that is upsetting. It's your disregard for not breeding correctly that is most upsetting. We're just trying to get you to understand that you've only begun the process of learning about what it takes to be a good breeder. You have a LOT more to learn before you should have even purchased dogs for breeding. Don't place the blame for your mistakes on all breeders.
