Beware and be careful people prey on people looking for yorkies and just because they have a website doesn't make them legit! their are a ton of free websites out there.Good luck |
I doubt a quality yorkie can be bought for under $700.
When I bought Beamer, even though I was looking for a pet, I wanted a quality dog from a reputable breeder. I could have bought several through the local paper for under $700, but I would have got what I paid for! Pay the extra and buy through a reputable breeder and get a quality dog that is not going to be costing an arm and a leg in vet bills down the road.
Beamer was a year old, but I still paid $1350 including shipping.
But I have a very healthy little boy, with good blood lines. I had no problem sending his breeder the money and having her ship Beamer to me. I would willingly buy another Yorkie from this breeder.
A good breeder has put a lot of money into the breeding of the dogs.
The prices may seem high to someone who has no idea what goes into breeding, but believe me, they aren't high.
You do get what you pay for (that has always been my motto in everything I buy)
Had I bought a puppy from this breeder instead of a 1 year old little boy I would have expected to pay a lot more.
