One has to be very nieve to think that show breeders do not cover up their mistakes in order to keep from being shunned by the YTCA. Have you never heard of dying the hair, or putting some hair from the ears into the bands to make their ears stand more to the top of the head, etc. Lord lady this goes on all the time with any show animal.
So recently some of these breeders have decided to thumb thier nose at the YTCA and not hide these beautiful dogs, and that is why they have suddenly started to be known. |
Yep, I have seen "cover-ups" in the show rings of dogs, cats, goats and horses. But, those breeders are, in the end, just fooling themselves and their breeding program. Like I said, there ar always bad apples in every bunch. Eventually hey are found out and dissappear from sight or just start breeding or money. Unfortunately, the drowning of puppies still does accure, but not in the quantities of the past. Personally, I think that people are heartless to do this, they are the scum of the Earth.( I am not talking about life threatening birth defects where the puppy may have to be put down) But everybodies breeding practices are different.
I am glad people are thumbing there noses at YTCA that way they wont be always complaining that YTCA is so unfair not to accept "off colored" Yorkies. Please, by all means, go create your own breed!
