I think you have to put yourself in the breeders shoes, if you have had those babies since birth to 14 to 16 weeks, you are not going to take any chances with their lives, i always tell people that want a yorkie their are breeders that will sell to anyone, after explaining why, most people are very polite, and understand, some are offended, but they are my babies and i owe it to them to not take chances with their well being, i am glad things have worked out for you and your young daughter and German Shepard. I compliment you on keeping your yorkie out of harms way, not all people with children are able to work it out like you have.
