Except that that's a major ripoff. Reputable yorkie breeders don't sell their dogs for that high, regardless of how big or small they are. You have disreputable breeders/puppy mills selling these dogs for an extreme profit- meaning they aren't concerned with the health and welfare of these puppies, they just want them to sell. The fact that they can't guarantee the size of these dogs should be the biggest red flag to most people.
I think at this point you're hellbent on teacups, teenyweenie, whatever you want to call it and you're comfortable with spending however many thousands of dollars on them. There's nothing I or anyone else here could say to convince you otherwise. It's sad and frustrating for a lot of us because it just perpetuates abuse that our beloved breed goes through.
