You can't google this kind of one on one information. I have sometime had puppies get too big, bigger than their parents, "bat" ears, reddish coloring, etc. and it is not apparent in their parents. Of course I sell them less expensive and as companions and try harder for good solid socialization for them. Because what it comes down to the Yorkshire Terrier is the best dog in the world for men,woman and children, I try for the standard in all my breeding programs but sometimes you get little throw backs.Lol Again Thank you  |
Just thinking out loud but if the test can't pick up on breeds farther than 3 generations back, is it possible that the test picked up on a terrier breed that went into the making of a Yorkshire Terrier that's now extinct????????????? Just thought about that....and wondering now?
