Exactly. No one is contesting or arguing this fact. Everyone knows, this, as is apparent by the first posts alone. What the reputable breeders, and those that support their vision of the yorkie are arguing is that the development of the yorkie was the result of planned intentions of breeders to take the best characteristics of different breeds. This is a far cry from taking a yorkie and a maltese, for example, and selling it as a 'new designer breed' for as much money as the "breeder" can get from it.
