Now, anyone who does research on breeding yorkies (which I have) knows that breeding them that tiny is not for the love of the yorkie standards but just trying to make tinies! I realize she is a YT and the vast majority of YT are here for the love of the yorkie standards, she however has proven she is not. I am not saying she doesn't love her pups just stating that when you try to breed for tinies you end up risking the moms life and health. And on another note, she posted a yorkie mom that couldn't produce so she had to get rid of her. Right there proves she doesn't care. I have always had my babies as pets and anyone who can just get rid of one of their pups because she can't produce is just beyond me. I think it is ridiculously heartless! She obviously doesn't love this pup or there would be nothing that would make her get rid of her!
So go ahead and bash me, I am entitled to my opinion!! |
I see you have not been on YT very long.. and I must say you are not just talking about this breeder in your post.. for many even show breeders that are finished with a yorkie they have bred find them homes.. so that they can make room to keep babies to show again and keep their lines for many years.. so saying this is not very nice.. ...I am defending all breeders on this.. if they kept them all would that be humane.. Dogs need attention and love.. and hence a breeder finding a home for a dog that does not meet her needs is not cruel.. it is humane.. I would keep every dog I ever produced.. but for the love of the breed I just cannot and not due to space but time to love and care for them all...
There are also people out there myself included some 20 years ago.. did not want to pay huge prices for a yorkie.. and I took in a couple.. one had been a breeding yorkie and did not produce what the breeder wanted..hence I got her.. and I so loved her.. and I can honestly say she got more attention from us then had she just been kept and fed by a breeder that was showing so many dogs she just did not have the time on her hands.. so please do not come here and be so harsh...especially when you do not know the breeder or the situation or just the breeding itself... I am sorry but this really upset me for other breeders including myself...anne
