oh my.. first of all I wouldnt keep a secret like that from my hubby, because I certainly wouldnt want the situation to be the other way around.. lol..that I would feel too guilty..

but hey to each thier own.

I couldnt justify paying more than 500.00 for a healthy pet qualitly dog.. for a show dog, breeder etc.. I wouldnt pay more than 1000.00 BUT the going rates for dogs in my area is pretty low and honestly when I first joined this group and discovered what some of you paid for your yorkies I just about fell out of my chair..the more reading I did and learning, I understood why you paid what you did..
