The YTCA has the right to tell their members which colors they can breed, but they do not have the right to dictate to the rest of us which colors should live and which colors should die.
Sue (Pinehaven) has done extensive reserch on the history and the genetics of the yorkshire terrier. Any dog that was created from various other dogs is going to carry all of the genetics of all of the other dogs. And there is always the possibility of those recessve genes showing up. |
What would you know about anything being outdated?? Its only "out-dated" if it doesnt agree with you and sues agenda. I believe that the YTCA has done more research than you will ever know about. YTCA also does not dictate to anyone about life and death of any puppy. Its up to the breeder if they want to cull the pups or not. Most reputable breeders that have a faulty puppy will place it in a pet home only, not to be bred.
And I am sure that you have written public undeniable proof that the old time breeders had partis. Records are easy enough to skrew up now and I bet even easier way back in the dark ages.
And by the way, ALOT or Yorkie bloodlines go back eventually to Pomp n Circumstance so that must mean, according to your theory, that most Yorkies carry the parti gene.
