Their answer is something like "I'm making sure my dogs are healthy."  OK, great--that means NOTHING in the long run of getting anything recognized. It won't happen by focusing your attention on your first gen of off-color dogs and never expanding your drive beyond your own dogs and household. You can't do it working on your own, as you ladies realize. But you ladies and your efforts you say you are making are a small minority.
I think it is the other side that is getting the "bashing" so to speak.  |
The "bashing" wasn't the point that I was making. The point is that disapproving of the reproducing of these dog is not going to make them go away. They are here to stay, so time would be better spent in actually helping them to find a place rather than trying to stop their reproduction.
The YTCA can stand their ground and grumble about them all they want, it appears to be a real issue with them. Why not do what they can to help the parti breeders get their own breed started rather than to fight it.
They will be fighting it until the end of time, cause they are here to stay. It's not just a fad that will die out. If left to go unchecked they will turn into a breed that is unrecognizeable as a yorkie, yet they will still be yorkies.
IMO the YTCA is adding to the problem not resolving it. If they were to allow them to be shown as yorkies of a different color they would have control over the standard. They are a foolish foolish group of people in total denial of the facts.
