Depends on what you mean by "standard"--meets the standard set for the breed, or 'healthy.' I have to ask, what role would a dog meeting 'standard' matter if it's resulting offspring are going to be something for which there is NO standard. I.e...would it really matter if you have a Yorkie that meets the standard as far as weight or coloring or structure if you are going to completely change it by breeding it to another breed?
