She may not get $600 for her if listed in a paper for sale, but it is a female and people tend to go higher for a female, as for some reason they seem like the more desirable breed. I have both male and females and I love them equally. I would think realistically between $400-$500 but if she's a nice tempered dog I would just take her for the $600 if you really love her. I hardly think she paid $2000 for her though, unless she got her from a Pet Store in which case she over paid. Best of luck to you. Elaine |
Hello Elaine, I decided to join Yorkie Talk and fumbled onto the thread on the dog I sold for $600. I wouldn't lie about what I paid for the dog and I bought three of her dogs for breeding. One dog was $1,000 at 4 years of age and the two Ruby and Roxie $2,000 a piece. I just looked at some papers I had and realized that she had given me $200 off so I paid $1800 they have champion and the lady I bought her from is a breeder in Texas from Yorkie Doodle Kennels. I felt a little offended by the remark but realize it was your opinion. The lady I bought her from bought her dogs from a lady in Albuquerque who shows dogs so they were sold to Yorkie Doodle to get her started. I would not be able to afford one from the lady in Albuquerque as they are way in the thousand range. I plan on making a copy of the pedigree papers to send to Katie so she can see that she has a dog with champion lineage which is a lot of reds versus my small 3 1/2 pound male who is cute with ears standing up and has not one champion in a 5 year pedigree history from AKC. Roxie is also AKC registered too and microchipped. Just thought I would follow up as the remarks were a little hurtful especially when I am an honest breeder and wouldn't have to lie to sell my dogs. God Bless You.
