Ok, I am little confused. From my research on the Yorkie breed and talking with a show breeder the chocolate is not to standard and is a genetic mutation. Hate that saying as they are still living, breathing beings. With that being said the chocolate should be at a lower price due to genetics and should automatically have no breeding contract. The breeder I spoke to advised me that if she had chocolate in a litter she would actually give the puppy away after she had it spayed/neutered. So, are they getting the higher price because people are trying say they are a rare breed or are a designer dog?
