The concerns are the same for the standard colored Yorkies. Whether they are accepted or not, as long as they are still associated with the Yorkshire Terrier, I feel like any Yorkie lover, breeder, YTCA member or not has a vested intersted in what is going on with them and has a desire to see fellow YT enthusiasts educated about them as fully as possible.
I honestly don't understand why is ISN'T an issue for some.  |
Well according the YTCFA they are NOT eyorkies becAuse there was no piebald genen in the yorkie make up.
Unethical breeding is an issue for all of us. we all agree that they be raised and bred responsibly, but the YTCA says they should not be bred at all, but then they say they are NOT yorkies. The cannot have it both way.
I know that you prsonally don't object to the breeding as long as it is done responsibly, but there are those that do and that is what this 'discussion" is all about.
I think we can safely say, that we all agree that breeding should be done responsibly. And that puppy millers should be outlawed as they are in other countries. But not everyone that is not a show breeder or who breeds parti colored yorkies, is irresponsible as the YTCA would have us believe.
And that is the type of crap that makes them seem less authentic or professional, and takes away from their credibility, because people can see through the crap, and see them for what they really are.
They really should just stick to the positive. State their standards and let it be.
