| Westminster - Only 12 yorkie enteries this year! Have you all heard this yet? Wow, I could not believe such a low entry total yorkies for this year's Westminster. Maybe more are just doing the Speciality and not the Westminster. Hummmmm, wonder who is entered? T. |

| They only send out invites to the top 5 in each breed.....AKC/Westminster ruling....with all other Champions entering above that number. Other breeds have pulled good numbers, but Yorkies haven't.......It could be a number of reasons......and the rumours are flying.

| What??? Your kidding me......wonder what the deal is......I started looking yesterday after you both mentioned the Specialty....I spoke with a breeder and she said she was not sending anything to Westminster.....but, she does have something in NYS. Is somebody mad about something? Maybe the expense of going and paying the entry has gotten to high...and they are boycotting....???LOL kidding.... Heck I would hock a big toe to go..... |

| Not sure! Westminster has always been a benched show. So maybe people are tired of this. Who knows. T. |

| Here is a great link that hits on what the Westminster is a little about its history: http://www.brownielocks.com/westminster.html Also explaines what a "benched" show is. T. |

| Could be because Yorkies NEVER win. Maybe the yorkie breeders are discouraged. |
