That is how it is supposed to work, but as you stated before. they put more emphasis on coat than they do health and temperament.
Whether I work to better the "Breed' which I believe is impossible, or to better my own line, or to work towards developing a better parti colored yorkie, I am still doing it for the better.
Not all backyard breeders, or in my case back "bedroom breeders" are in it just for the money. It is a hobby, and we enjoy doing it, and if there are people out there who love and want what we produce, what is the harm as long as they are healthy, loving dogs.
They are not a threat to the breed, we are not going to "ruin' the breed and we may eventually end up with our own breed club with our own standards, just like they did with the Biewers in Germany.
And for those of you who would say "that will NEVER happen", Never say Never. It can happen and it most likely will happen at some time in the future.
