I would say that it is personal preference. That there are also good arguments for both sides of this. I personally would breed her if you really wanted to and there was nothing else medicall wrong with her. My vet told me of Mollie's underbite the first time I took her to the vet. I get comments on her all the time she looks like she is smiling.
The lady's dog I used for the stud has the pick of the litter and she hopes that she gets Mollies underbite. Like I said I think it's just a preference thing.
Good Luck.

We are going to have to agree to disagree on this one. I can't imagine that anyone, especially a well intentioned breeder would hope to have a yorkie with an underbite. If it's a preference, get a bulldog. Even show quality dogs produce plenty of pet quality pups. Shouldn't purebred breeders aim for excellence?
