when and how much for your Yorkie?
 

When did you get your Yorkie and how much did you pay?

I bought my first Yorkie almost 14 years ago and only paid $450 for her and she was from a champ bloodline.

The Yorkie I got for V day, also a champ bloodline I paid $2200 for and I don't think she is as good quality as my first baby. (I'm not complaining she is my world)

So when did you get your baby and how much?

I'm getting my baby tomorrow and I paid $400.00 for him! :p

We Paid 300.00 For Siruis Friday. He Is My First Yorkie. The Woman I Got Him From Has Been Breeding For 25 Years And Said She Never Raised Her Prices So Everyone Could Share The Joy Of Having A Yorkie. I Lucked Up I Guess. I Had Been Looking For Months For A Baby And Now I Have One. :d

:eek: WoW, where did you find him for that price. I am so jealous.

Carter adopted us on Dec 25, 2004 for $1200 with champion bloodlines. The new yorkie we're getting this summer has a tremendous champion bloodline and we're paying the same.

Bradley we got almost a year ago and he was sposta be 425 but said he would lets use pay 375 (he was only asking for a lil more because the mom got sick when she had the babys so just covering vet bills).
With Chase a bunch of great girls rasied 400 for him and I got him 2 months ago.
My next yorkie will be 850 about and that will be around Aug.

I got Frankie a week and a half ago for $1050. I love him to pieces!!! I probably would have paid more. A friend of mine got hers for $1000, another for $2000.

Wow, those seem like good prices!
 

I am looking to get a yorkie this summer. I am a college student on a budget, and $300-$500 is the price range I am looking for, but I can't seem to find any. Where are you getting your puppies from for such reasonable prices?
Thanks!!! :aimeeyork

I Bought Sirius In A Town Called Maxton Nc It Was A 5 Hour Drive But Well Worth It. I Kept Looking At Online Newspaper Ads As Far Away As Ky. Now That We Have Him We Are Looking For Another Baby. Found Out One Is Just Not Enough.

I bought my first yorkie 14 years ago for $300. with champion bloodlines. Two years later I bought another one for $250. also with champion bloodlines. Last year I bought 2 for $800. , and the third one has champion bloodlines and I got her for $1200.

Where are you from, this might help us out and tell you some breeders maybe to go to.

i got toby on December 11th and we bought him for $500

I got Rocky February 11 for $600 from a breeder in
Hannibal, NY.

Sonny was my first yorkie at $450.00. I read warnings that Yorkies were addivtive and I got hooked! I bought two more (had to go out of state) for $450.00.

My first yorkie was Oscar...got him over 14 years ago for $200.
We were young and "broke" and the breeder was a nice lady right here in our town.....She told us Oscar would probably be rather large, but she did not want us to buy the tiny one...since we had no experience with all the sugar issues and all. He ended up being over 13 pounds...(at least 3 pounds of that was table food...)
I bought Lil Bit Feb 4th, 05...paid $600 for her....I belive she will be really tiny...the breeder did not want to sell her to me because she thought she was going to die....just not growing right.....she has done well here with us...
I spoke with the breeder and told her how well she was doing....she was MAD!!!!!! Right after I got her she received a call from someone in Georgia wanting the pup....would pay $1500 for her!!!!!
I know now there really are people who will breed a tiny thing like Lil Bit just to get more $$$$$$$$ !!!!!!!!
I intended to breed her once so my daughter and sis-in-law could have a yorkie....(and maybe one more for me)....but if she is not big enough I WILL NOT BREED HER.......my family is mad....but I will just get another.

in a big city like Houston, you can't find yorkies for under $500. Believe me, I looked everyday. You might find a male yorkie for $500 but they usually average about $700-$900. $500 is very rare, as for female they can go from $1000- as much as you're willing to pay $3000 or so... I suggest you look for breeders outside of big city. I have a litter coming in about a month and a half and still trying to figure out how much to sell them for if I do decide to sell them... maybe not, maybe I just keep them all....hehehehe

We got Tatum in the Houston, TX area and she was $950. Huge difference from when I got my toy poodle 15 years ago for $250! But she's the healthiest, sweetest, actually laid-back (for the most part!) Yorkie I could have ever wished for - worth every penny! Some that I called on were anywhere from $700 and up but those breeders were questionable.

Toto was the first Yorkie we had ever seen except for pictures! We did a lot of research and my Patrick searched all over the US for her. We finally found her in Marietta, GA [near Atlanta] and bought her on October 21, 2003. She is purebred and has a pretty impressive pedigree. Her Dad, Wyatt, was the Yorkie that competed in the finals this year at both the Nationals in Tampa and Westminster in New York! He was also the "Top Yorkie" in the US for 2004! Toto was showing a lot of potential except for her size ... noone ever dreamed she would weigh 3 lbs. We didn't want a show dog ... just a sweet pet! We convinced Ava that we would give her a very good home and she agreed to let us buy her ... although she has indeed exceeded the 3 lbs., I don't think Ava has regretted letting us buy her! [We don't "share" what the cost was ... the cost didn't matter ... what mattered to us was the committment we made to Toto!!] Toto is our absolute joy and our lives [yes, Patrick too!!] totally revolve around her!! ;)

I got Gizmo on Jan.15,2005 and paid $450. For what ever it means he is reg. - American Purebred Registry.

I paid $400.00 for Tiki, about 30 years ago. $600.00 for Miescha and Shaddow, 15 years ago, and Raisin cost me $700.00. I will be getting Jasmine in 6 to 8 weeks and will pay $1500.00. This is all from the same breeder, whom I trust implicitly. I have always got the most perfect and loving Yorkies from him.

Jasmine is now only 6 weeks yesterday and I go to see her every Sunday and spend some time with her. She is still no bigger than a mouse, and only last week finally put on a small belly. I sat her on the bed so I could get a closer look at her and her little tail was wagging, hard to say if it was because she recognized me, but it sure was cute! All my little girls were less than 3 lbs., and I think this one could actually be smaller, though I will know better by the time she is about 12 weeks. I first saw her at 3 weeks and her little legs were thinner than tooth picks, though when I saw her the next week she had grown the bones in her legs. Jasmine at 4 weeks has been eating on her own, which accounts for the tummy.

This is the first time I have ever gotten the pick, as well as have had the opportunity to visit as she grows and develops. I wonder if, or how much of a difference it will make in her adjustment and development. As you might realize I am looking forward to bringing her home. There is also a little male there that is just adorable that I am thinking of also taking. He is even smaller than Jasmine, which is amazing, but he is spectacular! He has been giving kisses from the time I saw him at 3 weeks, and is always with Jasmine cleaning her and loving her. They would make quite a pair! An expensive pair though unless he will give me a deal on 2. I don’t think I will ever breed Jasmine, though he would make an excellent stud! Decisions, decisions.

when I got my yorkie over a year ago... I didn't know that this many people love them as much as I do. Now when I look in the papers.. there are always 12-15 listings each and everyday under the pet section of the Houstonchronicle, this tells me that the demand for yorkies is going up so are the prices... some as high as $2500. ANd the thing is that people are willing to pay that much and even more for a yorkie... that just amaze me... so what are the demographic for a potential yorkie owner??? I see alot of star, rich and famous people with yorkie while watching M.T.V crib. But for the common people.. who out there willing to pony up $2000 for a dog????

We got my Magic from my aunt who breed her yorkie in November...we were really lucky and got her for free as a gift...and then we couldn't just have one so we then got Sailor from a breeder in Seagoville for $700....we were lucky on both and love them to death...we used the newspaper to find our breeder and she was so nice, we would defintely use her again!!!

Missy $400.00 about 7 years ago
Bobo $785 3yrs ago
mindy traded for
karlee $350 from a friend.
Poozac Pepper$500 Champion sired from very good friend great pedigree.
Twinking StarDust $800 exclant bloodline. champion sired.
and a little male i'm getting $1000. champion mom and dad.

I sell my pups from $700 on up. depending on the size and bloodlines.

I paid $850 for Milo. Now while looking for a 2nd, every ad I have called so far is a lie@!! They'll say, $900.00 then when you call they'll say it was a misprint. The other one's tend to be an auction. I was so suprised that they only want a puppy to go to the highest bidder. I look at the paper everyday, so far no luck. I am aprihensive to buy over the internet, but I feel like the best luck we'll have is outta state.

I paid $800.00 for Pita in Coral Springs, FL. There were some in the same town for $500.00 but their ears weren't standing up.

Girls cost more, the boys in Pita's litter were $750.00.

I would've paid up to $1,000.00. Don't tell anyone :p

kindness: being that you have so many yorkies... do you need a license? do you have a kennel license??

Wow! I feel like I might have gotten taken advantage of! I am picking up a male Yorkie in 2 weeks & I paid $1600 for him! I couldn't find anything cheaper (that I trusted) and I looked for almost 2 months! I paid $400 for Biddy last year, but she is half Jack Russel.

Well i bought Baby last August and she was $500, however she had a hernia, which is why I got her cheap due to the fact that she had to have corrective surgery during her spay, and I could not breed her. BUt to me it didn't make a difference. I have not seen females under $750 in Michigan or Indiana, so I was happy to get my Baby for $500, even with the surgery. She is just wonderful! :)

I received Meeko for my birthday this past year (2004). My husband surprised me with him. I've been wanting a Yorkie for years now and just never got the nerve to buy one. He paid $ 1400.00 for him. That is quite expensive in comparison to everyone else's, but in my books he is quite worth it. :D

Well, I may have paid to much for her but that's ok she is so worth it.
