Thanks to those of you who had appropriate comments that were helpful in understanding Yorkies and their prices which is what I asked for. We normally go for shelter dogs that are unwanted and just as loving but this time hubby wanted a Yorkie. I did do research on Yorkies before we purchased him and found that pet quality pricing was in the $500-$600 range. For pedigreed dogs capable of showing etc the prices went up significantly from there. We were not interested in showing so didn't go for the high end but did expect him to have a least a full pedigree.
Truthfully I did not appreciate the comment about "pimping" him out. Expected more from those commenting on this forum. For those wondering if we will put him out to stud..........no ....because with a conditional pedigree no one would want to use him.
Again thank you for your comments....well at least some of you! |
