I personally do not think you can ask anything else to the pet store, since you were informed the puppy was not registered and you accepted. Also you should know that a registry paper is not a "proof of great quality" at all. The fact that a dog is AKC registered does not mean is a great quality.
It was answered in another post that your puppy may just be breaking colors and it is true... yorkies can change colors a lot, and very light yorkies are not uncommon, including silver, and that is what your puppy sounds like. The silver in the head will turn into gold, the body if turns silver will stay silver.
The tendency is lighten up until about 3 years old.
To ask how much a MORKIE really costs is a tricky question.... as it is with any dog or breed... how can you say that someone can or can not charge this or that figure for the dog they are selling? It goes back to the beginning,
you should have done your research before you bought the puppy.
And there is more to it.. the price of something with LOVE VALUE... How can you price it? If someone loves a morkie, it be may be worthy thousands of dollars if you can ever put a number .... and for a puppy mill looking for profit it may be worthy some hundreds of dollars.
I hope your dog is healthy and sweet !
I wish you love the little thing and enjoy years of unconditional love from it !!! and i am sure that you will never be sorry you have it ! and if you ever decide to get another dog/companion you will either go to a shelter or research until you find a nice responsible breeder !
Welcome to YT .
XOXO
smartpuppiepets-- Yeah, as you have seen I have been learning a lot here in this community. And yeah, I know I should have done my research first, but well, can't go back and the only thing left is looking forward to what can be done now to prevent future missteps or unnecessary worries.

This is the first time actually that I get a "it's normal, will change" so hope to calm down.

Best regards
