It is difficult to care for anything and its even more difficult to express exactly what you mean to say on the internet. So Thank you simonsmommy, I'm off to get a TYD! I dont have the $ to dish out but I will do the research maybe even resue one...I first have to do some more research because "the title reads "yourkies best pet for you?" and all i got out of it was about $. so maybe what someone who has a dog should do is write about having one as a pet ... not trying to get one or defend someone elses article they didnt write.i just want to learn about the dog here....I'm just throwing that out there! someone write an article that knows about these dogs please!

I believe Francis was expressing a feeling of sickness at the thought of how much yorkies cost. I also know that Francis was not wealthy in the least; he spends much of his hard earned money as a member of the working class feeding dogs that do not have homes. Thank you for visiting our site!

It's the same thing as saying that someone who can't afford to adopt a child (with a $30,000 adoption fee) shouldn't have children. Just because someone can't afford (or doesn't want) to drop up to $1,000 in one whack doesn't mean they aren't able or willing to handle the day-to-day expenses of caring for a dog. In fact, unless we're talking about the extremely wealthy (and maybe you are), it seems to me that someone who saved on the dog's purchase price would have a little more to spend on the dog's care. So while I understand the idea that a large initial investment is an indication of someone's commitment, it's unfortunate that there are people out there who think that average working people are not worthy of any certain breed of dog, or that any certain breed of dog is more worthy of commitment and quality care.
