And so... I raised my two beautiful daughters to adulthood, and off they went ... I had empty nest... you know the story.. and he gave in and I got my precious Gia.It took two years of looking / begging/ and alot of talking to breeders but I knew what I wanted and it was not being offered to me . Why should I be denied a beautiful girl just because I didn't get it from you? I have already stated that I would have loved to have Prestigeous 's fabulous little baby but I know she is special and will make the ring probabley. There were some sites with inferior dogs without pedigrees from obvious puppy mills, I even visited some so called kennels but they were just plain sad.
So why be mad at me because I went after what I wanted. After all, I have told you I love the breed and would NEVER
ever put a pet through pain of successive breedings ,etc.
I don't even want to show them. Just have the joy of the raising of some litters that are as special as I can make them be. ANd yes, I might sell one or two but only to
important people like the serious breeders on this site if they were interested. But its not about the money , it is
about me doing what I want with the best quality of stock that I can afford at the time.
It is the American way.
You just didn't have the right to make fun of me . |
if the American way is to buy yorkies with what you think is good European lines behind them without knowing anything really about them, so you can bang out puppies with no interest in showing a Yorkie, knowing the breed standard and what makes an outstanding yorkie, outstanding, so you can sell maybe to alleged what you call important serious breeders on this site, then I guess you have totally tipped your hand as to what you are about. Why in the world would a reputable show breeder in Canada or the US want to sell you something to cache in on their lines?
Does this not seem obvious to you?
By the way, breeding two champion sired dogs to each other is not going to produce champions just like that. If you are lucky you may get one show pup in a litter, occasionally two, sometimes none. You have to have the experience and knowledge of what you are looking at to discern what you have produced and then you have to keep re evaluating those puppies as they age and mature. Some lines don't click together, others do, a lot of try and try something else if it doesn't work out to what you want assuming you know what you are looking at.
There are far too many who don't want to show but just want to have their special puppies that end up barely looking like Yorkies because the breeder has no idea what they are doing nor do they realize what they see as a cute pup may not be a very cute adult.
