It is after you get the pup that the price runs up. My one dogs, Carlo has been very healthy for over 10 years. Now he needed Surgery and Chemo, and throw in all of the extra care and medicines, Specialists, Exams, blood, Ultrasound, etc, well, lets just say that the bill will be well over $10,000 before we are done.
The Yorkie has not been bad, but throw in Dental, exams, extractions, Illness, special diet, 2 bouts of Pancreatitis, and a $10,000 fence, as well as her Wardrobe, and you start talking some serious money. Do not buy the cheapest, buy the best breeder that you can afford. |
