| I don't think dogs (yorkie or any dog) have to be perfect. There is no such thing as perfect or the cutest dog ever, etc. I think what makes the pup/dog is their imperfections. There are a lot of other dogs out there for less. Mine is 8 months old and weight 3.5lbs and I only paid $500 (if I'm not mistaken) for him. |

| I'm so glad that you are looking elsewhere! It just blows my mind that someone would ask that much. The scarier thing is that people will pay it and enable them to keep doing "business"!

| Don't do it yet...... DeniseRae, Don't do it yet......I am exactly where you are....I have been looking for a long time.....1.5 years...or more....for the right yorkie girl. I have just recently gotten pretty frustrated due to the fact that I want what I want... I am looking for a nice girl to show....so, my search may be a little more difficult than you.....but, regarding price......I viewed the website of the lady that you mentioned.....I am not sure I would spend that kind of money on her yorkies....there are sooooooooo many other breeders with nicer puppies than that. Many of the show people on YT have nice puppies from time to time....although, I have not been so lucky to find one here yet either.....but, I have talked to several show breeders with puppies...that are priced much less than you stated earlier....and in fact the puppies are "show potential" There is a publication that can help you find a good breeder that has quality puppies...they are show people, but may have pet quality puppies available...email me if you want that info....and also a few other websites that could help you.. Good luck |

| I think she wants entirely too much for her yorkies. I looked for a long time for mine and ran across many scams, but I finally found the one I wanted. I posted in the "yorkies wanted" forum here, and I was lucky to not only get a wonderful breeder to answer my post, but I also got a gorgeous little yorkie at a reasonable price. You just have to be patient, the right one will come along when the time is right. |

I found my Yorkie awhile ago. But she did not cost near that, she is 4 lbs. full grown and has an adorable face and both of her parents are AKC Champions! I found her breeder, who is extremely reputable on the YTCA.org website. I am sure not saying all those breeder's up there are the best, but all the ones I spoke to were very helpful in sending me to people who had what I wanted if they did not. I would also ask some of them for references on other's in the club. I weeded out the ones I did not want to buy from and came upon the one I found my precious Balli from.... Knowing what I know now I would not ever consider buying from a broker let alone paying that much! My goodness what if you bought one of those and it came and was not the one you thought you picked out? How would you prove it???
