The word "canines" is what I am curious about..most Yorkie lovers/breeders do not call them "canines"..also, how many different breeds of canines do they have and breed? One or two breeds or many?
I used to breed Doxie's and Yorkies..not together of course. I found it very difficult to devote myself 100% to each breed..50/50 didn't work for me..but I am a slow learner! LOL
If you have several kennel helpers, then they can do the work, grooming, feeding, keeping kennel clean, yard cleaning, exercising, socializing, vet visits, health records, AKC records, DNA records, shots/rabies/worming up to date, wash bedding, pens, dishes, toys, on and on, then you can do the fun part...go to shows (how do you know if you have good dogs unless you compare and compete) meet fanciers, learn, talk dogs, read, JOIN FORUMS,..how breeders can breed quality pups who own 4, 8, 10 different breeds is a mystery to me.
