[, I don't think it helps the reputable breeders' cause when people identifying themselves manage to come off as both rude AND overly sensitive.
I don't see it as being sensitive I see it as "PASSION" for the breed. How many times has it been posted that I want to breed my yorkie one time when it's a pet and no health testing is done and some just can't understand why we won't sell with full breeding rights and get called all sorts of nasty things? I call it upholding the YTCA code of ethics and code of conduct. And you are entitled to your opinion and I appreciate your opinion it's just one I happen not to agree with which is ok with me and I would hope you would appriecate our differences
