| New to Yorkietalk I stumbled across this site a few weeks ago and found some very good information here. I do not currently own a yorkie but, I have researched yorkies for a little over a year and I am now ready to start my search for a female puppy. I am not sure what is considered a fair price. I have searched on line and have found puppies ranging in price from several hundred to several thousand dollars. I do understand that there are many factors that may possibly impact the price. As I said, I have researched and researched and then researched again! Any help is greatly appreciated. |

| Welcome to YT!! A fair price for a pet quality female from a reputable breeder is usually between $700-$1,600 depending on your location..some breeders charge more but that is usually the price range. I bet you can't wait to get your yorkie, I don't know how I ever lived without mine!!!

| Welcome to YT! You are so right- prices are all over the place and big money doesn't always equal a healthy, top quality puppy. We have many knowledgable, excellent breeder here so you're in the right place!

| Hi Welcome to YT. the price range of yorkies has been discussed many times on here and it really makes no sense at all. Some sell for outrages prices. What is normal in one area my not be normal in another. But as the previous poster said the range seems to be between $700 to $1600 although you will find some priced higher and some lower.

| Hello & welcome to the YT Club! I also found this club shortly after getting my yorkie, and it's been a mound of help! People on the site are so friendly and always willing to give advice and understanding with just about anything. I agree with with the majority that the rates vary, but generally are between $800 to $1600. (in my area that is.) Keep us posted on your search and when you finally get your baby!

| Welcome and I agree as well about the prices- I waited for years to get a Yorkie and we ended up finding a great breeder and we were able to keep in constant conversation and see Mya weekly.. I paid 650.00 for her and that was very reasonable from my research, and she is perfect to me!! =0) |
