Welcome to YT Cindy! Kudos to you for researching before taking the plunge and getting a Yorkie. What you need to know is that Yorkies are not really dogs... just kidding... but once you own one you'll see what I mean... LOL!

The price you mentioned is very very low. The average price for a girl puppy is about $1,000 to $1,500 and for a boy about $800 to $1,200 depending on the area where you live and the quality of the puppy. So something can't be right with the advertised puppy. Either it is a puppy mill puppy or a mixed breed or not healthy. I would be very very careful.

I'm not a breeder but here on YT are a lot of very knowledgeable members who can help you find the right breeder and the right puppy.

Could you maybe consider to adopt? There are plenty of sweet and beautiful Yorkies in rescues and shelters that need a second chance for a loving forever home...
