At least we agree on somethings! What I don't understand is why akc is so lax about this and how come so many people can breed this way through akc? I would think that they would have higher standards and check up on breeders more, especially the ones that are purposely downsizing the breed. You hardly ever see someone advertising a teeny tiny yorkie with ckc papers, I guess I just don't have the respect for akc that I use to and I KNOW that there are fabulous breeders out there, it's not the registry that impresses me - it's the breeder.
