Agreed. A breeding dog should meet all the conformations of a show dog. My opinion if the dog doesn't have these qualities then it shouldn't be bred. I've recently seen so many dogs out there that are a poor respresentation of the breed. Dogs that have been bred for pet, that are looking less and less like yorkies and even poor pet quality. They are sold when puppies and aren't all puppies cute. Then the growing process begins and the dog is no longer cute. Most of the pet owners accept this and love them with all their hearts. But, then there are those that are very disappointed and attempt to rehome these dogs, or worse yet off they go to shelters.
