I am not sure where you live but there are decent breeders that will sell pet quality yorkies for $700.00. Most will not be health tested but unless you go to a very good breeder that either shows or has shown not many health test, and if you were thinking about buying from Craig's list it's not much different. If you do get a puppy try to get one that is at least 12 weeks old, there is a big difference in yorkies at 8 weeks to 12 weeks, and since they are toy breed they are very tiny at that age so risks for complications are greater than say with an 8 week old lab. Try to find out from friends and yorkie groups where people have gotten theirs from. Also look at rescue groups because the majority do not charge $700.00 unless perhaps it's for a puppy. Good luck |
