I wouldn't feel pressured to tell anyone what you paid for your Yorkie. Do these people ask you what you paid for your car, your clothes, your dinner at a fine restaurant? Do they want to know how much money you make? Sorry, none of their biz!
Regardless of which way you go, adopt, rescue or reputable breeder, bringing home a Yorkie, or any dog for that matter, is a labor of love. As I type, Bailey, who we adopted, is sitting on my lap asleep. His heavy breathing as I type each stroke of this keyboard puts a smile on my face that erased the potty mistakes he made this morning on the kitchen floor. They are so worth the price, regardless. |
