There is a breeder where my parents live that breeds yorkies, min pins, schnauzers, and others sometimes...typical BYB I guess. She is a receptionist at the vet's office in my parent's town. Well my parents and I were both getting yorkies at the same time and they had actually called her about what she had available (neither of us would ever buy a puppy from her now of course - we know better). Anyways - they didn't like what she had and got a puppy from a breeder in Arkansas that friends had reccomended. And Lacy came from a breeder outside of Dallas. Well I was visiting my parents over the Christmas holidays and took Lacy to the vet there for her last round of puppy vaccinations and she told me Lacy's legs were too long and she looked like she was part schnauzer. It really made me mad at the time but now my sister likes to joke that Lacy is a "Schnorkie". And now I just laugh because I know she is full yorkie...plus, we think she was just mad because we didn't get our dogs from her. But at the time she was my new baby and her ears had just stood up and were a little too big for her head and she was going through a bit of an awkward phase so it really bothered me. Lacy is proportionate - longer body, longer legs. But I've seen some of the yorkies she has bred now and they all have long bodies and short legs - I should have asked her if her yorkies were part Dachshund! I'm friends with the vet in that town (I worked for him when I was in highschool) so I always go to visit him at the clinic when I'm in town and of course always take Lacy with me. To this day, she still looks at Lacy kindof wierd and doesn't always talk very nicely about her. I'm not as nice as I used to be though and next time she migh not like hearing what I have to say back to her!
