The yorkies original work was as a ratter. That was the first line in my post. The competition was to prove the dogs skill and speed at getting the job done! I know the history of the breed well, my point was that when men make competitions to prove that the breed can perform the task that it was originally intended to do it doesn't always turn out pretty. Probably has something to do with men and testosterone and their general love of violence.
