Default bites

I do not keep breeding stock with bad bites, that is my preference..but having said that..IMO breeding a dog with a bad bite is no different then breeding one with a soft coat or oversized. It is a fault..pick the fault you can live with, since our Yorkies all have faults in the bloodlines.

There are degrees of a bad bit..slight to severe...I would breed a good quality bitch, of good temperment and a good pedigree with a slightly off bite...as opposed to breeding an oversized bitch or one who was shy/bashful. Jaws are a different fault..if it is badly undershot..No, I would not breed her.
