Just because a breeder is a backyard breeder doesn't necessarily mean they are bad people or don't love and care for their dogs. They just arent the type of breeder I would buy from or recommend from now on. Doesn't mean anything so far as your baby goes...mine came from a BYB...and I love her to death and wouldn't trade her for the #1 yorkie in the world! I just know that any dog I purchase from now on will come from a breeder that meets my criteria for a reputable breeder.
Yeah, I kind of agree with you, thats the thing. Had I known more then... *SIGH* but I guess thats why we find places like YT and learn so we don't make the same mistakes twice right? I hate to have the breed overbred and end up with so many sick babies and diseases, etc... Its heartbreaking!
