| Like I said in an earily post I think they should sign a contract guaranting the features they are charging more for. If when the dog matures he does not have these features then the buyer should be compensated.

She did not place a higher price on the little girl because she "happened" to get a smaller one in this litter. I specifically and clearly stated that she has been working for five years to get this particular litter. She has priced each puppy based on it's value with help from her mentor who knows what the demand is and what each is worth. In actuality her mentor advised her to ask for MORE and she felt $4000 was a good compromise. Last edited by SoCalyorkiLvr; 08-04-2005 at 12:50 PM. | |

Now you are still implying that I am not intelligent enough to know when I am being taken advantage of, and I am a little offended but not terribly because I know the truth. Last edited by SoCalyorkiLvr; 08-04-2005 at 12:57 PM. | |

| And if this matters I didn't get a puppy pack. What I did get is a breeder that listens to me every week ramble on about my puppy, gives me advise when I need it and a rock solid contract that protects us all, Mignon most importantly. I didn't get Nutrical or hypoglycemic fact sheets or Albon. She brought me a dog and a contract. thats it. Oh and some food. She knew me well enough to know I would bring Nutrical Just in case..(I have never used it). |

| Tanya and I still talk and are freinds even though I didn't get a puppy from her. She is a wonderful breeder and I learn from her as I do from all I have met. They all have different ideas about different things and I didn't get albon with Ava either and not puppy pack to speak of so every breeder is different. Your little Mignon is adorable and I am so glad she is so healthy. Ava has never come even close to a hypoglycemia attack. She is a little tank and eats very well too. We are both fortunate. |

| When I bought my Katie, she was 14 ounces at 5 months old - so I pretty much knew she'd be tiny. I only paid $1,200 for her. She is now full grown at 2.6 lbs. To me, that is VERY tiny for a dog. I wish she'd gain some weight but she will always be perfect to me whether she is 2 lbs or 500 lbs.

| I can see it now, loads of people see that you can get a premium "tiny" yorkie and make thousands off the pups... what will happen? people buy these "tinies" or work a few years to bring down their line, and have litter after litter... making lotsa dough. People who have no business breeding dogs will do this, why? greed. The same reason people do it now. Sad thing is the "yorkie" is lost in there somewhere, while people try and get the smallest pup they can... oh and if your bitch has a litter of big (aka- standard size) pups, she is sold... while they move on to the next bitch. There will be interbreeding ect... just like what happened to poodles a few years back. Sad- it is really sad that these dogs are being used to make a buck... or a lota bucks. You can defend your friend all you want- but you won't change the minds of those of us who feel what she is doing is wrong... btw- where is this friend of yours? if she is so proud of her lines she worked 5 yrs perfecting, why isn't she here educating us all? All she has done is come one here and talk about how small here pups were... ha- she knows she is price gouging, that is why she wouldn't say how much they are for... maybe she bases the price on your income? |

| it was a while back Pat mentioned a breeder selling a show potential pup, when the sale was final (buyer walking out the door) the breeder took the bow off the pups head and kept it LMAO!!! Look no one cares about the puppy pack all the bells and whistles are just that...what they care about is a honest breeder charging a honest dollar for a honestly breed Yorkie!
