I've known numerous studs in various breeds that while they went top ring, produced worse than themselves most often than not, even when bred to a quality bitch. OR they had hip/knee issues, but because they champion'd they were bred.
Just because a dog has a championship pedigree doesn't mean it/they should've been bred. It just increases the likelyhood that you might have quality on your hands.
I for one would rather see what health qualifications your studs and bitches have been screened for and passed vs. you advertising "100+ champions" in so and so's pedigree.
Especially since you have no qualms about stating that you don't show your dogs. Then please don't get your $2,500 dollars by advertising someone else's hard work to the degree that you do.
*sigh* I'm having a bad day and perhaps I shouldn't have jumped on the boards and certainly not read this thread, but I did. And there's my 2 cents.
I am sorry that someone harrassed you in a PM. I don't know what HER/HIS issue was, but now that you've brought this to my/our attention, I've posted my personal issue above.
"I have many, many, many very happy new puppy owners, some who have returned for up to their 3rd baby from me" -----------I hope you've been breeding for many, many, many years in order to have produced many, many, many puppies in which people are returning for a 3rd pup.
I'm done now.

I hear what you are saying, about the show dogs maybe some should not be bred. I picked my lines very carefully. No, I did not do the work of showing, but I paid the price and sweated the sweat (if you will) to develop my lines. I see a lot of dogs with higher prices and poor quality, so come on people, my prices are not that out of the ballpark.
I hope your day gets better and thank you for the kind words.
And yes, I have been breeding my yorkies for several years.
