I have been an animal lover all my life, I am 60 years old. Over the years I had several different breeds and I also got involved in showing. It was 12 years ago that I started raising Yorkies and I fell in love with the breed. I got my first Yorkie from a friend of mine that was raising yorkies. Yorkies are in a league of their own. I guess a lot of what I have learned has just been from hands on experience. I did not have a mentor and of course YT was not around back then. I have leaned much over the years and since I am trying to get back into showing and breeding show quality dogs there is much more to learn. |
