Yes, they are very expensive. IMO, I think it's because they are still fairly new. After a few years, I see the prices going down. I hope so that way everyday people will also be able to enjoy these beauts!

I thought long and hard about bringing in a breeding pair of biewers then thought about what a craze it has become, as well, I doubt that the AKC will ever accept the Biewers.

The pricing that their offspring are being sold for here in the US is astronomical no doubt that will change since so many more breeders are importing them. Marketing 101 the more the market saturation the lesser the price. They will become much more affordable as the imports mature and breed in the next year or two.

If I were to breed the white yorkies I would opt for the parti-color because they are AKC registered. Downside, because there are so few parti-color the AKC doesnt allow them to compete in comformation as yet but from my conversations from Summit and Gem they seem optimistic that will change soon enough.

That in my opinion is way too much for ak pet. They are beautiful, and cuter than a button, but so are the average Yorkie! Did I say average? Shame on me! LOL. I do think there has to be a time when poeple say enough already! I believe this is highway robbery! Beautiful, thoughPat
