Looking For A Yorkie Under $500

[babychanel]

Although I really couldnt afford it.I ended up spending alot on my yorkie. But my neighbor got lucky and bought a pup for $500. Her yorkie is 3 years old now and is very healthy.The breeder was a great person who told her she didnt feel you needed to have a large wallet to pay for her pups.She just wanted them to be loved and cared for.I have to say I agree with her. Also I know the vet bills can get costly , but I myself have found myself a great vet.I have never paid more than $50 for shots and checkup. I have been taking my pets to him for 10 years now. Dont get discouraged just keep looking and always keep in mind to purchase a healthy puppy.

What does inactive under her name mean? I have never seen that before. Did she just never come back?

Please do not post looking for Yorkies below $500. If your budget for a Yorkie does not allow for $500 or more, you may want to look into Yorkie rescues or adoptions of older Yorkies, as they may be better suited to your price range. Feel free to PM sellers with an offer, but the public forum is not a place to beg or whine for a Yorkie.

That is straight copy and paste from the YorkieTalk rules.

It wouldn't surprise me if she left the forum...I hope she pops back in to learn more about the breed! If anyone needs to learn it's new members like her.

Please, if anyone know of breeders who sell they puppies for "cheap" ....please respond!!!

PM me please... I tried to PM you but it said you disabled it or something?

P.S. Rules can totally come across harshly, even if that wasn't the person's intent.

Regardless of the other thread, I agree that the rules can be delineated more pollitely. The poster is not the only one that may read this thread and it is off putting that someone especially an administrator would respond in such a insensitive and personally attacking way. The administrator might want to remind herself that she also can PM the person if she is annoyed with them and interprets what appears to the rest of us as a harmless question as "begging and whining". People ask questions because they do not know and looking at this one response, I would be afraid to post certain questions for fear of such a reaction in the future. I did not think that this forum was about being elitist or mean. It may sound cliche but in this case it is appropriate that if you do not have anything nice to say....don't say anything.

The person that posted the "begging and whining" thing was not administrator. She was quoting the rules that are listed under "READ BEFORE POSTING UNDER THIS FORUM". It gets old reading OVER AND OVER again people asking for cheap dogs, and the rules are posted for a reason with a title of "READ BEFORE YOU POST!!" So, before you make an attack on someone else, maybe you read too!!

Why is this thread getting so out of hand?? I newbie came on here looking for a yorkie. We are called "YORKIETALK"......It didn't sound like she was begging or whining, just asking, sheeesh. Not everyone can afford $1000.00 + for a dog. Sometimes it is easier to shell out $100 every few months for vet bills than it is to shell out $1000.00 all at once! I was in that situation. Not everyone can afford a dog from a breeder nor do we want one. Sometimes we want a dog to love and spoil and give a really good home too! Just because a dog doesn't come from a breeder, does this mean that dog doesn't deserve a loving home?? Just because a dog doesn't cost $1000.00 or more, does this mean it isn't a good dog, or a healthy dog or deserves to have a happy and healthy life??? It might be time to think before we type......

No one is arguing that there aren't dogs that cost less than $1000. I personally got a Yorkie that was being rehomed for less than $300. All we were saying is that there are rules for posting in this forum that prohibit asking for a dog for "cheap". THE RULE ITSELF, CREATED BY ADMIN. STATES, "NO BEGGING OR WHINING"! The person that posted that rule got attacked. If you guys have such a hard time with how admin. described that rule, take it up with admin. and send them a PM, that way they can explain it to you, and maybe you'll understand why there are rules posted for you to "READ BEFORE POSTING A NEW THREAD"!

Thanks for your advice. In fact I did read the thread and someone on it said it was posted by an administrator so please don't jump down my throat. I have a right to my opinion as do you. Again, the point is that regardless of who wrote or posted it, it can be said without the attacking and elitist tone. I understand that it gets annoying when certain type of posts get repeated over and over but you like myself have a choice to pass over it. Here is an example: if your Yorkie whined and whined repeatedly would you curse it and scream at it or exercise patience and kindness? I would guess the later since you are "LuvnmyYorkie".

By the way....my response was hardly an attack which I cannot say for your reply to it. You made sure with CAPS and all. You would think the way you got worked up...you wrote the copy which are the rules or something! Sheesh.

The caps were done because thats how admin has it posted. Please keep in mind that this is a message board and tones can be taken out of context which you have most certainly done. No one has once "cursed or screamed" on here. No one said it was posted by an administrator by the way. Someone repeated what admin. has posted already. Go to the main page for "Yorkies For Sale or Wanted" and you can see admin's thread in caps (I put it in italics so you don't think I'm yelling ) that says "Read before posting a thread" in caps.
