> I recntly found a beautiful little peke in a pet store for around 600 dollars. Shes got a great personality and is really adorable- i just dont know if that is simply too much to pay. Any averages on what puppies usually go for? Thanks,

Well personality I would never buy from a pet store as you are only supporting the
puppy mill where the dog came from! Phone your closed Pekingese Breeder
Club to give you a list of reputable Pekingese Breeders that are willing
to work with you. The only way to put an end to Puppy Mills is not to purchase
a dog from a Pet Store!
