It sounds as if you may be upset, that "breeders" are taking advantage of the popularity of this breed to "overprice" their puppies. Don't let your upset keep you for being open to a little different thinking or approach.
What we are trying to say here is that reputable breeders who bred true to the standard, doing all the necessary health checks, who prove their breeding stock worthy of being bred, who register their dogs with AKC here in the USA, this price of $1000 is not at all unreasonable in fact one of our members here did a search and came up with a slightly higher average than $1000.

I hope that you whatever path you take that you research your breeder well, and that you end up with a happy and healthy pup.
To close the purchase price of a Yorkie will be the least investment you will make over the life of your dog.
