Hi Everyone!
So I was browsing around the local ads online because I just LOVE looking at puppy pictures! (Who doesn't?!) and I came across this really cute yorkie that was priced at only $400!!!
I was in shock because :
1) in Southern California It's VERY hard to find a yorkie girl AKC registered that's under 4lbs for that price..
2.) I thought this baby girl was just too cute!
Im not planning on getting another female since I already have 2, but I was looking for a male that I might add later on in the near future, so i decided to e-mail the person anyways (because at first they didn't write whether she was male or female).
In my e-mail I had asked the questions, Is it male/female, Is he/she registered, if so AKC, CKC or ?, Do they have pictures of the parents, where are the parents, does the puppy come with any health guarantee's etc, how old the puppy was and why were they in a rush to get rid of her? (i have seen this ad renewed every week mind you.)
they e-mail me back with the following (Mind you this ad or the online thing is only supposed to be for Southern California)..

When I saw the price my jaw just about dropped on the floor! because it's such a steal if it's really that price! but Considering she said they "relocated" to Florida, makes me Iffy?
Does it sound fishy? or does this sound legitimate? Because I was thinking if it's really that price, it's a steal and i've got to have her!
Should I e-mail this person back with more questions? if so, what questions should I ask?
