No one, including you, seemed to be satisfied with that answer. You all kept harping on it.
We are not ignorant, we know there are risks as there are with any breeding program or anytime some one ventures into unknown territory. But that has not stopped people in the past, and it won't stop us.
all we can do is tell you that we plan to do it responsibly, only time will tell the outcome.
we've been told we are in it for the money, that we are ruining the breed, that we are going to produce deaf dogs, that responsible breeders breed to the standards set by they YTCA, like the YTCA created them.
We've heard it all and we are not going to stop. so you can ll quit harping.
As for the facts. You have yet to produce any facts of any parti colored yorkies producing deaf puppies. True it has happened in some other breeds, but equally true that it has not happened in all other breeds.
We cannot prove something that never happened.
All pioneers go through this same sort of ridcule, yet they proved that the earth was not flat, that life did exst on the other side of the mountains etc. but they could not have proved it if they had litened to all the nay sayers.
I bet way back when, they were told that they could not possibly turn a 100 pound wolf into a 5 pound, long haired, two toned dog, had those people listened, we would all have pet wolves.
parti colored yorkshire Terriers are here to stay. Get used to it. |
Well, I thought this thread had taken up a fairly positive tone earlier this morning. I was really done posting after I posted this morning with post #306. I don't see how that post was harping on things but it got picked apart, line by line, and I responded, line by line. Things went downhill from there. I think the posts speak for themselves and everyone is free to have their own opinion as to who is harping, flippant, sarcastic or whatever. I posted some information....take it or leave it.
