Here in the Mid-Atlantic, typical prices for champion-sired, AKC limited registration (mandatory spay/neuter) Yorkie pet boys started at $1,600 and girls $1,800.
That was 7 years ago when I got Max. Likely has gone up. Prices are significantly higher in New England and other regions.
If I knew nothing about a particular breeder, super high prices would make me suspect the person is a broker. Super low prices would make me think the breeder is cutting corners. As with any pup, research is essential.
