You're right there are 2 sides for this discussion. As long as rescues buy from auctions the breeders are still selling their dogs, plain and simple. The breeders know the rescues attend the auctions and the breeders are just supplying the demand of yorkies for rescues. In other words, rescues are part of the problem.
It's a shame because rescues can't purchase every auction dog out there and so some of those very dogs the breeders are supplying for rescues will also end up as breeders bought by the few breeders that attend the auctions . But then if you're a rescue that buys auction dogs, I guess that's a good thing for you, it just re-supplies the rescue with more dogs.
