How much did you pay for your yorkie? - Page 12 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Shelby&Seymour · 03-21-2007, 04:33 PM

Shelby & Semour would have been a "Bargain at DOUBLE the Price" !! We paid a "price" for them, but once I saw their little noses, my heart melted! ...
The funny part is how much we spent AFTER we got them!! ..Vet visits, toys, beds, carriers, carseats, ribbons, barrettes, bows, paw wax, shampoos, condtioners......... not to mention the RV ( we couldn't vacation without them!!)

.... By the way, it is Shelby's birthday!!! She is 3 years old!
"Happy Birthday Little one"!!!

Finally took her to the groomers and they did put a pony on top of her head with all 6 hairs she has. My husband keeps saying she looks like she is mixed with something else.

oh my god i am soo sorry about the lie the breeder told you! not fair at all.
she is soo beautiful though!!! are there any rules in your state that protect people in this case?

I would have no idea what I could sue her for other than vet bills. But I just couldn't return her to that environment. I was so ripped off. My choices? Return the pup and demand my cash back or keep her and write it off. She is such a sweet heart. We were out front today playing with the kittens (we have two rescue kittens that are 14 weeks old, brothers). Bijou was chasing them all around our pond out front (man made pond). Next thing you know, the cat did a jig and went one way and Bijou fell in the pond. I heard the splash. I thought for sure she would go running in the house all upset. Nope, it only made her more hyper. Next thing you know she is zooming all over the place, darting, dashing, just comical to watch. Give her back to a puppymill? Nope, I will write off the $2,500 I have spent and know in my heart she will be loved to pieces until she dies.

awww haha...
you have a BIG heart. You did the right thing by keeping her. If you were cold-hearted you would have definitely demanded your money back but you didn't. I am proud of you!
Love her to death, I bet you will, she's a doll.

Booboo'smommy · 03-23-2007, 03:24 AM

I have two yorkies and I paid for both of them ?480 pounds. That was a really good bargain.They are both 13 weeks this sunday.Yey

Tina_Luvs_Missy · 03-23-2007, 07:17 AM

$1500 at 6 months

(that was half price originally 3000)

The vet was also shocked at how skinny she was @ 6 months.... it just shows the lack of attention/care that puppy store gave to her!! glad I took her away from that ridiculous place! jerks!!!

amccoy · 03-23-2007, 09:04 AM

Hi we're new to the site, but loving it

We paid 1600.00

And I always said I would never pay alot or any dog, but I do not regret it. She's 9 weeks old and full of energy!
We get our little one today

I can't wait!!

Thanks for loaning me the "angel halo" but it is def. not deserved. Originally I did just that. Called the breeder and demanded my money back. I am in the same state as this puppymill so I guess she knew I could sue her locally. Mainly she just ships pups out to never hear from all the people she has ripped off. I was going to return her (make that trip again) and get my money back. But it was just nagging me. I knew she would turn right around and try and sell this baby to some other unsuspecting fool. After a few days off no sleep, my conscience working over-time, I just couldn't do it. The way to hurt a puppymill is to have no one EVER buy a dog from them. But today that isn't a reality. I saved one poor baby and today I am happy with my decision.

laurabelle · 03-23-2007, 09:33 AM

I paid $350 for Sasha. I practically stole her. I got lucky, yeah, but she's also ACA which it seems very few people have heard of. I don't give a crap about all that register stuff though, I still need to send in her papers! I had to drive 2 hours to get her, but it's been worth it. She's a great doggy.

SweetCuteness · 03-23-2007, 09:36 AM

I paid $1,000 for Ferdinand.

LittleFurbabies · 03-23-2007, 09:38 AM

me $0, but $1400 was paid for Peeka Boo. Gotta love christmas presents.

chewiesmom · 03-23-2007, 09:47 AM

I paid $800 for Chewie and he came neutered. He was worth every penny plus all the other pennies we've spent on him since we brought him home.

MikaTallulah · 03-23-2007, 11:44 AM

I paid $300 for Cozy- No papers because when I got her she was already overstandard at 4 months of age and weighted in at 7.5 pounds. I did not need the papers. I just wanted a happy, healthy yorkie puppy.
