For some peoples , even a free puppy is too high to pay . Most peoples paying lower prices for a pup will breed them and ask higher prices for them . |
very interesting! actually i think this is such an interesting topic. people often argue over what they think the right/reasonable price is for a yorkie. i kind of thought about it, and this is what i came up with: a $3000-$5000 is an inexpensive yorkie if they are healthy and well behaved. a $300 yorkie is an expensive yorkie if they are unhealthy (vet bills, mommy and daddy's heart ache), and/or require you to replace your carpet/furniture which well exceeds $5000. but pretty much it's supply and demand. if there are more people wanting yorkies than there are yorkies available in your area. the price will go up. if there are lots of yorkies available and no one is looking to add a yorkie to their family, then the price will go down. |

Hmm...hopefully they'll be in the Citrus Bowl! :D It IS going to be on my birthday so I think it's fate. ;) They will definately have to fight FL every step of the way to get there. (If they lose, they'll be in the Sugar Bowl.) |

I've been looking for another puppy for a good 6 months and I think the average price for males is $800-1200 and for females $1000-1600 in my area. Depending on whether you want full registration or not... I think finding a healthy, happy puppy that you fall in love with and that will fit just right into your family is worth the extra $$$, but I think that the dogs listed $2,000 and up is just ridiculous especially with the economy. I don't think paying more will guarantee that the puppy will be any more extraordinary than the next. |
xxmxaxrxyxx.... I don't know who's site it was . But it was Puppiesforsalebynet.com .I just came across it while looking for Yorkie stuff on the net. I couldn't believe the price ! It looked like a breeder website that alot of different people must be a part of because there were tons of puppies ,and all different breeds. Even a "teacup" French Bulldog. I don't know how in the hell they could have come up with that !!!!!! :eek: I know more now than I did when I bought our first Yorkie about 4 mo. ago , so even though I got lucky and did find a good breeder, I will know for next time that just because a puppy cost more doesn't mean it will be a good puppy. I do think alot of first time dog buyers like us fall into that "line" given to them by ,after they fall in love with the puppy. |
Mine came from All-Star Yorkies - AKC Registered Yorkshire Terriers-Parti Yorkies - Show Quality, Pedigreed, Companion Pets She was very helpful and very nice. She still tries to answer all of my questions I have. Her puppies range from $500(males)-$1200 I think is the most expensive ones. She is in Oklahoma but ships them out if needed. Mine came chipped and with shots, a week after I got her I took her to the vet and she had the start to an ear infection, which I think was my fault because I didnt realize they had no under coat and needed to be more taken care of then my big dog, I know better now! She had 30-ish dogs and they were all inside her home and it didn't smell bad! :eek: I think they have to be 9 weeks before she will let them go, not sure. But my little angel is 3 months and 2.75 lbs and healthy as can be! She has some smaller ones too, I purposely picked the "fat one":aimeeyork |

I also saw some 'teacup' Cavalier King Charles Spaniels for sale online recently. This is getting absolutely insane...I cannot imagine the kind of health issues those poor babies have.:sickie: As to the quote above where there are dogs for $6,500 - $10K?? WHOA. I mean - are they parented by Westminster and Crufts winners? I mean, come on!! That is out of control. This whole business is out of control. |
I would pay what I could afford. :) But, I don't think it is out of control if a breeder wants to charge $2000-$3000 for a Yorkie because they are living things...companions. People don't want to pay these prices but buying computers and TVs for $1000-$2000 is okay? |

My Yorkie mix ended up costing about $3,000 even though she was a rescue, by the time I finished with the vet to get her healthy...Worth every penny I spent on each of them! |

Juicy was $1200 and let me tell you it was the best spent $1200 Ive ever spent!!! (Well my bf actually spent lol) But because of this site I have came to the conclusion that even people who spend thousands can still end up with a sick puppy from a puppymill. Its all about getting research on the breeder. |
