Nowhere in their question did I see the words "tail docking" or "different color" or even anything at all about THE standard (not THEIR standard as you seem to want to put it). You seem to want to ignore the fact that there IS a standard. The standard is the standard for numerous reasons. I'm sorry that you don't feel the need to understand what those reasons are. You must be above the standard. Pity me. |
You are not "getting it". I have never "played on words". I have explained myself clearly throughout and it is all very logical. There is no way I can be above or below or even with the "standard" you refer to because I do not believe in it. I believe differently is all.
I have stayed on topic the entire time. This member is being told that the only reason to breed is to perfect the breed according to the YTCA breed standard which doesn't like even "slight" underbites, so I was merely pointing out that the YTCA standard isn't everyone's idea of the ideal yorkie, and if the underbite is not severe and will not be life altering and her vet encourages the breeding then she feel comfortable with her decision to breed her dog. She has been responsible and done her research. She will not be a bad breeder just because she chooses to breed dogs which would not win in a YTCA dog show.
That's all.
