HI Kimberly...as the line in the old movie, Cool Hand Luke" goes..."What we have here is a failure to communicate"..
I was referring to an actual commerical breeder..one who pocesses a USDA commerical license to breed.
The AKC does not classify any breeder with 3 or more litters as a commerical breeder, because they know many clubs will not allow as members anyone who is a commerical breeder. IF I am not mistaken that was in our by- laws..no brokers, dealers, commerical breeders..but again that could have changed on the commerical part. Many counties in the USA do insist on licensing to breed..any amount of litters..but I do know the Yorkie clubs will NOT allow any of our members to broker or sell to brokers, pet shops. etc.

I have obviously ruffled your feathers in something I have posted on this subject or others...these are purely my opinions and knowledge based on many years in the dog world.
If you would like to take this to Private Message, please feel free to contact me. I do not want to subject other members to our misunderstanding and will not post on this thread again...best wishes to you.
