Improve the breed? Now this is surely going to upset a whole big bunch of you, but the truth is I'm not particularly stuck on the notion of improving the breed. There are a lot of excellent Yorkshire Terriers out there that don't need a lot of improvement, in my humble opinion. They may look slightly different from each other, but they are all unmistakably nice Yorkies. I don't let myself get all hung up on a particular size ear, carried just so, etc. So, what happens to the puppies you think are not an improvement of the breed? I'll bet you sell them for money, and most of you probably also let them go with full breeding rights. How does that improve the breed? My mission is to breed very high quality Yorkies that people can take home as pets. I may or may not get back to showing one day; temperament wise I don't have much patience for some of the nonsense... |
