Does anyone know anyone who linebreeds? |
My advice to you is to make sure any dog you purchase is tested for genetic defects. Study, the line very carefully, know the breeder. Buy from a breeder that has been breeding/exhibiting a number of years, with a good
track record. It's not a simple going out and finding breeder that line breeds. Someone that is well known in the yorkie world for their reputation in producing healthy, sound dogs that are a wonderful representation of the breed
Finding such a person is the first step. However, obtaining a stud from that person will not be that easy.
