I guess the key word is reputable. Some people equate showw breeder with reputable breeder and as you have found out, that is not always the case. i found out first hand too. I have always bought AKC and will continue to do so but those breeders have to be reputable too. I wish I had know everything I know now when i bought my first yorkie. i didn't even have a yorkie when I joined here and was just in the start of my research when I got my first yorkie. fortunately, he has turned out to be a great little guy.
