From Cotton/Soft to modified coats, bad toplines, bad tail sets, bad ears sets and bad bites! I have also been told that some show yorkies have their coats colored, ears tied and so forth.. You also have to remember that in the show ring it is not always the nicest yorkie that wins, as alot of it is very political! Sometimes it is the human holding the lead that wins not the dog they are showing! JMO

Melanie, what are modified coats? What does it mean to have the ears tied? Sylvia
