I have to disagree that "reputable breeders will not breed mixes". I wanted a Morkie because I wanted a dog with the traits of both the Yorkie and the Maltese. Many other people also like the mix, hence why they are bred.
I would say $350 is a great price, as long as you get some sort of health guarantee, and the breeder seems to know what they're doing. Make sure the place is clean, and make sure you meet the parents! |
You are kidding right ??you expect a health guarantee with a price of $350 that would not even cover the cost of championing and Health testing the two parents! Not to mention the vetting and feeding and caring for a small litter of puppies.
Your breeder happens to be a vet so maybe she would donate free her vet care for any of her puppies should they come up with an issue. Most breeders are not vets and do not have that option.
