I don't quite understand the extremely high prices being paid for some dogs, I have seen $3000 and up even....some dont even have champs in the pedigree, just because thier small or something.I have heard where folks pay the higher prices to avoid the vet bills later, yet thier doggy still has liver probs, or heart probs...hip or knee probs....so they paid more to still have a vets bill.I think when you found the right one you will just know, no matter $100 or $100000...the right baby will be the right one.I always wanted the "pretty" "pampered" girly that I could show, and it was what I was seeking when I found Moe, upon seeing him and meeting him, I just dropped the idea of my precious, and got Moe instead, because it felt right, the breeder didnt feel right, the state of Moe didn't feel right, and most looking to buy a Yorkie woulda passed by him for all these things.....he looked funny cause his eyes were bulging out, he had little to no hair on his ears, his eyes were mucky, and his chest raspy, but my garage sale puppy's spirit called to my spirit and together they agreed they needed each other.I knew I couldnt register him, or show him or breed him, but it didn't matter.
Hi,
Moe is so adorable and I would have fallen in love too.
I agree with you, If you are meant to have a dog or friend or husband, etc. Then you will... and Moving Heaven and Earth will not stop it. My little Bargain basement Jazzi came to me in just that way. I was wishing for a female around 1 year old so I could start a second female on having Auggie's Babies( he is so handsome and makes the cutest babies along with MaMa ofcourse). I want Roxy to have a break from breeding! I also didn't want to go thru the baby stage again. My hand where full just trying to get Roxy & Auggies 4 puppies paper trained for their new families. So as I was searching the classifieds a Lady came Knocking on my door. She had a flyer that stated 11month old female Yorkie for sale $400.00. I almost dropped to the floor! I asked why she came to my house? and she said she was going to all of the Vets, Groomers, and Boarding Kennels in the Area to put up her flyers and the Kennel right next door to me told her I had Yorkies. So she thought she would stop by just to see if I knew anybody that might be interested. To make a Long story short.. I said " HOLD THOSE FLYERS I WILL COME RIGHT NOW! " that was all it took, I knew the minute I saw her that she was meant to be mine. She looks exactly like my Roxy except her fur is a shade lighter. They could be sister, But they are not I checked the bloodlines and Jazzi originally came from Missouri and Roxy is from here in Frankfort IL. But she was meant to be with me and got along with Auggie right away and he is not friendly right off the bat. Now Roxy and Angel on the other hand love everybody. I even thought I would get some opposition from Dad and the Boys... But they all thought she was Roxy at first and then saw Roxy with her babies and as they all 3 scratched their heads and did a double take. Smiled , Laughed and started petting her. She found her Forever Home at Last and We All knew it..... :
Well I guess my short story became long after all, sorry about that.
