I just had a question, I know that we have been discussing BYB, Hobby breeders and Show Breeders in the "Rant" forum

. What I wanted to know is how do you become a Show breeder???

Do you just read the books, speak with other breeders. How do actually start, you purchase a pup from another breeder that is "show quality" and compete??? If you have a winner you go on and breed your winners together. I just wanted to know where you guys get your expertise, I imagine you only obtain it with years of experience...right?
By the way, I am in no way trying to stir things up or offend anyone I just would really like to know. I as a dog lover, and Yorkie enthusiast, would imagine showing would be a very rewarding experience. Maybe something to think about in the future.
