Hi and welcome to YT. I hate to disappoint you but you will not be able to find a healthy, standard yorkie for less than $600. Occasionally some get lucky but for less than $600 people often end up with silkie mixes or other mixed breeds or loads of health issues. You may want to wait until you have more for the purchase price and it doesn't stop there. Yorkies are very expensive to take care of. Just something to think about. Little dogs in general can be expensive because of vet visits, ect. But I sincerely hope you find what you are looking for

I guess I got lucky. I bought Beauty from a friend that was selling hers for 1800 but I only paid $500 for her. So it is ways to buy a healthy puppy for under $600. You just have to be persistent and patient. Don't rush into anything and in the meantime continue to save money towards the perfect puppy for you in case you don't get as lucky as I did!

Exactly! You got yours from a friend, otherwise you would have had to pay more. My point is it will be hard to find a healthy pure bred yorkie for under $600 unless she knows the breeder personally or something like that. It takes money to raise a puppy, and the purchase price is only the beginning.

Oh I wasn't saying what I said to dispute what you were saying. But there are people in this world who don't have lots of money but would make good yorkie owners. I know that it takes money to care for a yorkie, but it would be nice if she could find one that is "Perfect" for her and her circumstances. I was well prepared to pay the 1800 but it was nice not to have to pay that much. Sorry if I offended you in anyway, but I am the type of person to encourage, not discourage.

There is a breeder near me that sells yorkies for $350-$750 depending on size. I do not know her personally but I know 5 people who got pups from her and they are all really healthy plus she gives written gaurentees. I know of several other breeders who sell for $600 and less. I hope you find what you are looking for. Good luck

I don't if it is the area that I am located in but most yorkies around here are 500 and up. They are from breeders and healthy with guarantees. I guess it must be location.

i got mine for $500 .but the prices where i live are from $300-$900 depending on if they are male/female, ckc/akc and size ,the smaller they are the more they cost! but yes they are expensive for the most part . be careful of the mixed that sale for just as much like yorkiepoo and others ...which i personally don't see the point of. that's jmho! have patience and good luck. oh ,don't buy from pet stores either! those poor puppies no matter how cute ...are usually from horrid places that are puppy millls!

I got Starsky for 500.00 but he was a first time litter. I know they have raised their prices since. I know males will go for a lot cheaper than females. Right now I am looking at a female for 700.00 and I feel that I am getting a deal.
