There will always be people who try to sell things way higher than normal. I remember when I first started looking at yorkies - and I did searches online - OMgosh! There are some breeders, many of us know who they are, who sell yorkies online for 10k (very sick yorkies, I might add
). But he was marketing them as teacups, and micro teacups, and '1 pound adults' - etc; his prices were unreal. And his kennel was busted eventually, I believe. Those poor dogs, they lived in terrible conditions.
I have 2 yorkies w/ normal coloring, and 1 parti. My parti was $100 less than my Marcel - and Marcel was from a yorkie show breeder...a show breeder who has reasonable prices (I feel). So,it really depends on who you buy from.
Not all people support the breeding of partis or biewers, and that's okay here at YT. Some support it, some don't. But all are welcome.
