Growing up we had an "AKC pure bred yorkie" that was 20lbs, curly hair and had a long nose and now my baby Kaylee is CKC and 6lbs, long silky hair and 100% yorkie. I think you just really have to know the breeder. AKC is accepted as the best registry here in the US, but it can easily be forged too and is more likely to have inbreeding because of its popularity so don't trust it blindly. I'm not trying to dis AKC (my Osbourne is from wonderful AKC breeding), just be sure to do your research whatever the registry.
