[quote=Mardelin;2438112] since you don't breed phenotype to phenotype as in other breeds and can pretty much determine what you're gonna get.

So yorkies are NOT bred phenotype to phenotype?
Sorry I am just trying to clarify what I am soaking in here.
With my bullys they were not bred phenotype to phenotype either, I could have 2 really bully parents throw a lanky puppy that was thinner and had more leg etc. If I hadn't researched their line correctly or paid little to no attention to the line. So I would do the same with the Yorkie then? Research their lines and the types of dogs in the background to determine traits. See there are traits on my Yorkie I would love to lock in, such as his shorter muzzle and cobby body, but there are other things I would want to add such as rounder eyes... I would then look for a female with those traits correct? or uncorrect? |
