Think about it anyway. |
You know Lorraine that's what I'd really like to do one day! I've thought about it alot lately because I love showing our beautiful breed! I have only a few yorkies and maybe have one litter a year if that! I didn't even have a litter this year and don't see a litter next year either. You see, I don't just breed to breed my passion lies within showing a beautifully healthy the best representation of the breed I can. I love my dogs more than life itself and if hubby were to tell me it's him or the dogs guess where he'd be? You got it the yorkies would share the house with me LOL...
So, if anyone tells me I don't have ethics or love for this breed they don't know me that well. I listen to my mentors and yes I believe I have wonderful mentors! I don't do anything without their advice or direction. I was involved in horses way before I got into dogs and I was actually good with horses and did very well! I take what I do VERY seriously and I take this fancy very seriously! Again, if anyone tries to tell me or others differently then maybe they need to get to know me better
My mentor here in Texas has been doing this for over 20 years and without her I wouldn't be doing this and now I have another mentor and have been lucky enough to learn even more. I want to continue to learn about this wonderful breed because my love for the yorkie is my passion.
I would love to show others yorkies I would be in heaven
(but one at a time) LOL
