So far as you're breeding, I personally hate the word "teacup" being associated with a dog breed because there is no such thing. It is VERY misleading to a buyer and leads them to believe there is a "teacup" standard for a yorkie and a "standard" sized yorkie. No reputable breeder uses that term, and no reputable breeder intentionally breeds tiny yorkies. They strive to IMPROVE the breed. Show yorkies are normally between 5-7lbs, at the least 4lbs. Of course reputable breeders sometimes have tinies born, but they don't intentionally breed them because they require a lot more care and have the potential to have more health problems. I also don't agree with breeding faulted colors but a lot of people like them...but the reason these colors are faults are because there are more genetic problems associated with these faulted colors. I'm not sure how you got your hands on so many championed dogs if you don't show...reputable show breeders don't just sell their pups with full breeding right to just anyone - they only go to other reputable show breeders. So I think it's kindof fishy that you have a lot of championed-sired pups but you don't show... |
Nice Post. I was trying to decide how I should post my feelings and you did it perfectly.
In order to purposely breed tinies, you have to breed undersized dogs and over time you are guaranteed to get genetic defaults. And you are breeding very small females at only 3.5 lbs. What do you look at to determine that they will not have any problems?
I also saw where you are advertising them on hoobly.
