Did you say $400?!?!?! Wow that is a GREAT price!! Around here (Long Island, New York), you can BARELY find one for less than $1000. You really have to do your research and word of mouth helps alot if you want to pay less than that. I wound up taking a chance and calling a breeder that had advertised in the paper. I got my Dolce for $850, and that is only because when I called they told me they had puppies that wouldnt get any bigger than 4-5 lbs. for $750. I thought i had hit the jackpot!! So when we got there he said that they had all been sold (I found out that I talked to 2 different guys, and they hadnt communicated). Anyway, there was a little one left, and as soon as we saw her we HAD to have her. Of course she wasn't $750, but we told him we had sat in traffic for hours and we thought they had them for that price. He felt sorry for us, and agreed to give her to us for $850. They were SUPER nice, giving us food and nutrical and a bunch of other goodies as well. She was only 8 weeks old at the time and she is now 16 weeks. She weighed about 11 oz. at first, and now she is about 2 lb. 7 oz. Wow, that was long-winded!! Sorry about that!! Yorkies definitely go for way over $1000 out here though....wish I lived in Missouri when we were on the hunt for a Yorkie!!!
