So if you see those words on a website you can be sure that the yorkie your buying hasn't been health screened. For a list of ethical breeders see this list. http://www.ytca.org/breeder4.html
What you're looking for is a yorkie with shorter muzzle, and just make sure you see the parents, don't trust pictures only. |
No reputable breeder will advertise that they breed "baby doll face yorkies". They may breed yorkies with a shorter muzzle as muzzle length is about preference to the individual breeder. But a true "baby doll face" is an extremely short muzzle with round eyes and an apple-domed head..not at all correct for the breed. I do like the shorter muzzles but I do not want an apple-headed yorkie.
The Pastoral line our of Canada tends to have shorter muzzles...you might look into her or other breeders that have her lines.
