People often ask me why our
shorkie puppies are on the
higher end cost wise, (My
prices are decent compared
to what each and every baby
receives before they go home
and what all our adults
receive. I am in the market
to offer ONLY top quality
babies) if you are looking
for an inexpensive dog
please look at your local
shelter. There are tons of
pure bred and mix dogs in
shelters that need of
homes.
To
raise genetically sound,
healthy happy, lovable
little bundles of fur, there
are a lot of costs involved.
Our dogs in our breeding
program to produce our
shorkie puppies are not inexpensive
cheap dogs.
Great breeding adults is an
investment. We have paid a
lot of money for our Mom and
Dad, sometimes thousands of
dollars. We look for
certain features and
quality's in our adults. We
pay so much and do the
genetic testing because any
good breeder will not breed
a seriously flawed dog. You
NEVER know if a dog is
flawed unless you do the
genetic testing.
It takes a lot of time, a
lot of patience, and most
of all a lot of love &
attention, and sometimes a
little heart ache. What we
have planned is not always
the outcome.
We look for high quality all of
our dogs are AKC registered.
We have a wonderful veterinarian
who takes care of all my adults
and babies. All of our adult dogs and
shorkie puppies get routine vet care
including advantage multi to
ward off flees and ticks, heart
worms, each adult and baby
receives vaccines, vitamins, and
they also get wormed. Veterinarian care is not cheap,
even though our vet is
reasonably priced, it is still
an expense.
Dogs need grooming, dental care
and cleaning. When you add all
that up, you are spending more
than what you are asking for on
a pups price. This is my one
true passion and I will ONLY do
it correctly.
