If you want to purchase a yorkie to "BREED" or "SHOW" them, then obviously you and the breeder have to come to an agreement where the breeder would allow a "FULL Registration (Breeding Rights), but it will come with a HEFTY price!
This is where it obviously gets very expensive. Most Breeders Don't allow "Breeding Rights" because they don't want you to BREED THEIR LINE (Right, I know how selfish right?), and for these reasons, they are selling their dog as "PET PRICE" and it is much cheaper than paying over $2500....But also, they don't want anyone and everyone just breeding mutts and mixing breeds and what have you. To reduce all backyard breeders out there who are out to make money and to also reduce Euthanasia among our beloved dogs out there, This is where LIMITED Registration comes in. Not because the dog is "NOT" show quality or for the other reasons you have written in response to MY comment.
Plus, with Limited Registration, given that Reputable Breeders are selling their AKC PUREBRED Yorkies much cheaper than they actually paid for. My Yorkshire Terriers came from a Very Reputable Breeder (Cynthia Hill - Edgewood Yorkies) and My Male Yorkie came from Phyllis Bryant who owned Durrer Canadian Yorkshire Terriers. (Yes Betty Ann Durrer's Line - GO google their names.) Yes! I have BOT OF MY dogs AKC pedigree and BOTH OF MY Yorkies came with FULL AKC Registration, and paid a lot for them but I purposely bought them to breed beautiful lines. |
Actually a reputable breeder & person who shows their dogs may take years of working side by side with someone in order to allow them to join their team. What does that sound like for a breeder to say. Hey give me 3k and you can breed them. Id rather spend 3500 from a person who cares 100% about their dogs & wouldnt allow this to happen to their pure hardworking lines for a PET quality. Sounds to me you have filtered out. & as you so called have active great lines. Your not so much of an active yt participant. But hey. Who am I to say is wrong or right. I go with a breeders REPUTATION. Bc thats where we got terms REPUTABLE BREEDER.
