There really shouldn't be much difference in "show quality" and "pet quality". I guess I'll never understand why some people are okay buying "pet quality" dogs that are as off-standard as most yorkies are today. My next "pet quality" dog will be as close to show quality as possible. I want a yorkie that looks like a yorkie

Educate yourself and buy from reputable breeders or rescue.
