Didn't even have a pedigree or know what it is. Don't know if this is the same person or not but I do know the bottom has dropped out here in Kentucky. I will probably give all of Ky a heart attack when mine comes out in the paper tomorrow. My prices are almost triple that.

I totally agree with you Dee. You see alot of yorkies around here in the paper for $650 and under but they are all puppymill yorkie pups. If you want a healthy quality yorkie you are going to pay twice that amount.

I live in KY and got both my AKC babies for about $500. On both the prices were reduced because the breeders couldn't sell them for any more. Both came from 'pet homes' are perfectly healthy and on visiting the homes found that both came from breeders who only bred one or two females and only one litter from each yearly. These people weren't backyard breeders, their dogs were their pets and were kept in their home. Phoebe was 12 weeks old and they still had a male they couldn't sell and had reduced his price as well.
This is an economically deprived area and most things are cheaper here than in bigger cities and other places.

That is not necessarily true!!!!! Lexie was $575.00 and I can assure you 150% that she DID NOT come form a puppy mill!!! Believe it or not, there are some reasonably priced quality puppies out there.

Plus, most people in rural , deprived areas such as ours here in Ky, don't even know what a quality yorkie should look like. i really didn't either until I got on here and started researching. before i bought Ceeby, I looked at some males and the breeder told me she had never seen a male that his ears stood up and didn't think they were supposed to. this woman has been breeding for many, many years.

There are a lot of differences regionally- you are right. And trust me,Lexie is worth a MILLION bucks to me!! I gladly would have paid more-she is without a doubt the love of my life. I just don't want people to think if they get a "bargain" or happen to get lucky (like I did!!) that they are less than great puppies!!

Umm, sooo not true.....

I have a yorkie, with papers, from a reputable breeder and he's never been ill (ever), no shunt problems, nada. He has a beautiful coat and he is small. (I prefer not to own the 2, 3, 4 pounders). He fits his breed standard.

I got all of this, and I SURELY didn't pay 2xs the price.

It all just boils down to the breeder... not necessarily price. My baby's breeder has been breeding for 10+ years. She used to show in the 80's and 90's and still remains very active in her local YTCA chapter. Her "pet" yorkies are always priced in the 500 to 800 range (although she breeds very seldom). They are beautiful and her bloodlines are remarkable. If she feels your family is a good fit, you might be lucky to purchase one of her pups. Believe it or not, you can find a quality breeder selling pups for less than $1000. You just have to do your homework.

I just wish she was still in Florida! She moved to Kentucky back in 2006.
