From what I know breeding is a pain in the butt so why do it to break even or loose money.
I know the difference between a show breeder and other types of breeders, but how can you tell the difference between a BYB and the type that does not show but breeds to your standards, from what I can tell except for puppy mills most of people breed in their homes. Also what should someone do if their budget is $500.00 |
There are breeders who breed just because they love the breed and want to better the breed. Buying a $500 dollar Yorkies can end up costing you a lot more when the breeder doesn't care about health and doing the things they should. Also having a puppy is very expensive anyway at least two puppy wellness visits and all the supply's needed ect. If you have a sick pup it's a whole lot more then that.that $500 puppy could end up costing you thousands of dollars.
