I am just curious as to what others have paid- he is smaller and AKC with his dad working on his CH and his grandpa is CH. I have only paid up to $500 for my girl, but she is in no way standard nor does she have papers so showing is out of the question. Just curious- please dont take offense for me asking just trying to make a decision...
Like others have said there is no guarantee that a pup will be show quality even coming from Champion lines. With that being said. I do want to add that I think that is about the standard price for a pup with show potential. I paid about that for my Friday. It's good that the breeder is helping you out just make sure to ask questions and find out what makes that pup show potential.
Go check out some dogshows to see what goes on there and talk to other show breeders. When you say Yorkie Guru are you meaning a mentor? Best of luck to you and Hope to see you in the ring .
