If you want to become a reputable stud owner I definitly would not breed your yorkie with a s**tzu. Reputable breeders breed to better the breed, and mixing with a s**tzu is not exactly bettering the breed. From what I've learned on here, you pretty much need to have your guy health screened, tested for STDs, find his faults, and it would probably be best to find a mentor to help you out. And to answer your question, IMO purposely mixing the two breeds would make someone a BYB. There's a lot to learn about breeding, but the forums on here should definetly help you out!
