It doesn't mean that everyone of the breeders is perfect, but IMO, starting within a system where there are some guidelines in place is better than starting where there are none at all. Most of us follow that logic on various levels already. |
No, not at all. I never said that. I'm just trying to understand how it all works. We are not planning on another Yorkie any time soon (we love our only-child furkid status right now) but for the future, I'd like to be more informed.
My opinion still stands regarding the Rascoes but I never said there weren't red flags there. I don't think anyone is perfect but I have seen first-hand where she lives and have dealt with her personally so I gave my opinion based on my experiences. It would not hurt for the OP to check out all of her options - especially if none of the YTCA breeders have something she's looking for.
