No one is comparing yorkies to jews, they are comparing the set standard to the standards that hitler set. I am very much a jewish and Israel supporter and I find nothing offensive about using hitler as an example. Its the fact that someone is, or a group of people are saying that something is not worthy of breeding if it doesnt fit a certain physical standard. Nothing outside of what a certain group says is accepted as far as hair color. It's nothing that even effects the health of the animal (yeah yeah "as far as you know" but there are a billion standard yorkies out there with many devestating genetic faults), but rather what color their hair is.
