I do not think she was implying anything by your questioning whether the expense would be right for you after having to spend so much on Vet expenses with your last dog. My sympathies to you on the loss. I learned the hard way and didn't go to a good breeder. I ended up spending over $7000.00 on medical expenses for Buster within the first year and a half. I believe that is the point Yorkiemom1 is making. It is wiser to spend more money on a well bred dog than to think you are getting a bargain and end up paying hefty medical bills and the suffering that the dog and us owners have to go through when they are sick, and that breeding dogs quality health dogs is an expensive business so will pay more for a well bred dog. I wish you the best on finding your new puppy and I hope it all works out. Best wishes. |
I'm new to the forum but when i was reading this thread and I read yorkiemom1 post......I read it as her responding to the other poster about what was a reasonable price for a well breed yorkie.
I don't think her response was directed "at" you my darling.
I am so happy that the breeder you found treated you so well and sounds like a loving and caring woman.
Finding our babies is exciting and stressful. When we are searching for these little fur butts we are initially stepping out on faith because we are buying the breeder. The breeder is stepping out on faith entrusting these little lives to us. She saw something very special in you babe and she handled the situation in a beautifully...... xoo
