$8500 for a yorkie!?! WHAT IN HEAVENS NAME! Okay. I thought my eyes were deceiving me when I saw this... Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale: Tiny Doll Excuse me...but $8500 for a DOG!?! No offense to those who have spent this much (if there are any of you out there) but that seems absolutely obsurd to me. I love my Yorkie, but would NEVER pay that much. This one is some sort of champion bloodline but in the long and short of it...does it really matter THAT much? And is it worth paying half of a car for? |
That is ridiculous! I can't imagine that anyone would be foolish enough to fall for this. |
I know! Thank goodness I'm not alone. I want nothing more than to email her and ask if she's insane in the membrane! I'm pretty sure all of her puppies are for pets only and don't come with "breeding rights." So $8500 for a pet!?!?! Who is she appealing to? Paris Hilton? |
$8500!!! That is crazazy! |

There's a clue in the link, "Tiny Doll." One thing I've learned on YT is that no reputable breeder would sell a "tiny" to anyone. They are placed in qualified homes as special needs babies. To ask $8500 for a smaller yorkie speaks volumes of this greeder. |

:confuse8: Oh, sorry I bumped my nose on the screen trying to get a better look at the pups teeth. Though they might be filled with gold. |
Here's one that is 9 months old and they want $9000!!!! And is on hold!! From a different breeder!! Yorkshire Terrier Puppies for Sale: Hold |
:confused: stunning babies , but ridiculous amount of money :confused: madness |
maybe the pups have gold encrusted nails and poo that smells of roses? :eek: |
I'm not sure if Kim is a member here, always thought she was an ok breeder until I just saw this. Breeding small is not good and she is probably inbreeding to get this look. Very Sad :mad: Selling for such an outrageous amount is also very shameful. Greeders. |
I feel sick just visiting their websites. Especially the second one. |
Well you know what they say 'a fool and his money are soon parted' As long as there are people in this world with more money then sense some 'breeders' will carry on charging this kind of ridiculous prices. |
All those babies look sad...or maybe that's me frowning so hard from looking at the site.. :( |
I don't know why everyone seems so surprised. People are looking for the smallest dog they can get. And yes, small does mean expensive. Whoever is specifically looking for a tiny knows that the cost will be not that of the standard yorkie and those people have money. And come on......... how many of you looked at Starlight's website and said "OMG - how adorable"? |

People who have taken the time to research the breed will not be looking for the smallest yorkie they can get because they know the risks. Dogs which are bred to be smaller and smaller are usually unhealthy, they usually cost a bomb in vet fees and usually dont live as long. Any GOOD breeder would not sell a tiny at these prices, they would be given to people who know how to deal with under sized dogs and know how to deal with any health problems they might face. Breeding any dog under 5lbs is cruel, the dog will struggle to carry these pups and the dog itself AND the pups could well die. Now you tell me what is good about that? And no I dont look at the website and think "OMG - how adorable" I look at the website and think "how sad that greedy people will put these poor animals through hell all for the sake of money" |

How on earth do these people think they are selling PETS for over $8000? seriously. Ok maybe some huge bloodline best in the world Yorkie pup for breeding, but really? I know my breeder paid almost 2/3 of that for an already championed girl who was ready to breed. A pet for $8500 or $9000, I wouldn't even pay that for a pet horse (ok maybe a show horse), PETS? I don't understand? |
LOL. All of the comments make me laugh, yet the issue is so not funny. I'm glad I am not the only one thinking this is totally bogus. I thought a lot of people may have paid this for breeding puppies but I'm happy to know that's not the case. I mean I still just can't get over the price. |
shipping to you is $300 extra. |
LOL. I saw that too. |

Come on people. We are not talking about reputable breeders - breeding for the betterment of the breed. They are not! They are a business - period. They sell for these astronomical prices because - Yes - there is a demand for it. People don't do research. They just want a tiny, tiny cute puppy, and are willing to pay anything for what they want. They want a Masarati and not a Hyundai. They don't research the performance of the car - they just know - its cute and expensive and I want it. Whether you disagree or not makes no difference. The facts are that there are people out there and there are breeders (if that is what you want to call them) that breed for this very specific purpose - TINY. Sad..... but true. If you disagree that there is a demand for this - then you are very naive. |
