Judy, I am assuming some of your post was directed at me since I talked about the price. I don't breed but I know an lot of breeders in MI and some other states. Unfortuntely price does not always = the quality of breeder, sadly more often than not lately it has to do with the size of the yorkie, which is unfortunate. I also know that just about every show breeder in MI sells pet yorkies for less than $2,500.00.
If I was ever to get another purebred, you bet ya I would be checking everything out to find out why specific prices were being asked. I will not be like a few people I know that bought through fancy web sites only to find out their pups came from brokers that bought dogs in from overseas yet their web sites made them look like they were buying from champion lines. Before buying a pup I would also post on YT the name of the breeder, the membership here has a huge frame of reference that I would find helpful. |
