Tucker isn't standard by an stretch of the imagination (except that he has a silky coat). However, NO one can say that his breeder doesn't care about him or his health. We are still in contact with her - over 3 years later - and every time we talk she says "How's Tucker doing?" She loves him like crazy. Just because her yorkie litter isn't "perfect" by the standards that are written down on some piece of paper, that doesn't mean that she doesn't care about the dogs she bred. She cared enough to make sure that they would all be healthy, happy little boys and girls and continues to keep in contact with the owners of them to ensure that they remain healthy and happy.
