These post are always controversal and I truly believe no one who loves yorkies means mixed breeds are inferiour because they aren't !! They're smart and cute and totally loveable - Anything mixed with a yorkie is usually ADORABLE ...smart too ! Some of my favorite puppies are mixes on another site - They have truly unique characteristics !

I think some of us just wonder why there are SO MANY PEOPLE intentionally creating mixed puppies and trying to make money off it -

Some of these breeders KNOW many people can't afford the $ 1000 PLUS that a purebred yorkie cost - so a mix is created for less money - and Voila - a whole new customer base for that breeder of mixed puppies !

I'm not saying this is the only reason a person buys a mix....I know lots of mixes are bought out of love and the price didn't matter - but you have to admit - it IS a jump from under 500 to over $1000 and these breeders know it.

I don't believe most of these sites/breeders/brokers/puppy sellers are trying to enhance or improve these breeds....It's not out of love for one breed or the other - it's all about making a living thru the puppies they sell....remember......this is JUST MY OPINION !
