They decide that large floppy ears are just what the Yorkie needs, and with that in mind, they come up with the Dumbo Yorkie, with huge floppy ears, and try to sell it for huge amounts of money because it's rare and unique. They convince other byb's that the Dumbo yorkie is just what their line needs to make more money, and stand out among breeders. They are angry with the YTCA for not allowing them to show their special Dumbo Yorkies, and bad mouth the YTCA every chance they get. They're angry; because others don't show them the respect they feel they deserve and argue that they are improving the breed by bring greater variation and more choices. Some people will fall for it, and others won't. Any breeder who takes a fault and breeds for it, and claims that he is improving the breed is shamefully ignorant. |
Wow, I have never seen anybody selling Dumbo Yorkies for huge money...lol Did you just make that up? |
