I couldn't agree more. Breeders don't make money on puppies they sell cheaply. They really only
make money on the pups that bring more money. Which is not to say that a $500 yorkie is any less "valuable" than a $3000 one. In my neck of the woods (southern California) $1500 for the cute little girl you got would be a terrific bargain!! It you figure that your baby should live 15 years, that's only $100 per year or less than 30 cents day. That is cheap for what you will get back from her!! Yorkies range in price from $500 to $10,000 and the average I would say for a high quality pet or a puppy with show potential is closer to $3000 in my experience. The super tiny females are in great demand right now and rarely go for less than $5000.
Your little girl is "Priceless" no matter how you look at it and worht every penny! Enjoy!
