LITTLE FEMALE TEACUP YORKIE, WILL BE IN THE 4 TO 5 LB RANGE FULL GROWN. SPECTACULAR IN EVERY WAY.
I would love to get another little girl!! They had a picture posted with the dog in a purple bow all dolled up. She is a cutie.
But I have to wonder why do you all think she is so inexpensive? Most of the yorkies here go for $800 to $1800 range. Could something be wrong healthwise? And how would I actually be able to find that out? Or could it be part of a scam?
I did send a note telling a little about myself, and I asked the age, whether she was vaccinated, vet checked, how long she'd been breeding. So hope I get a response soon! That would be a stroke of luck to get a healthy yorkie so inexpensive, hopefully it's not just too good to be true. |
It may or may not be a scam. I only paid $500 for Mollie but, I did get her from a friend she also has sold several more for that price. I would just talk to the person and if they are close enough see if you can go and look at her. If they give you the run around than I would consider that a big red flag. Just use your best judgment.
Not everyone out there is in it for a scam though most are.
Good luck and please keep us posted.
Sorry posted this before I read your update. Good for you finding out before you gave them money.
