He's a cutie, no doubt, but I have a different way of choosing a puppy. I don't go by what the puppy looks like, I find a breeder who has a breeding program that I respect. I look for one who breeds to standard and follows the ethics of the mother club for yorkies, the YTCA. I look for one who understands the value of health screening and knowing the lines and pedigrees of her dogs. I want a breeder who I can trust and who cares where her dogs are placed, and isn't adding to the ever increasing killing in shelters because she insists upon taking a dog back, if you no longer want it or can care for it. I have a whole list of desires in a breeder, and I found one that met my needs. So pretty much any offspring she produces, is ok with me. I believe in supporting good breeding, not just buying cute dogs. Now if I were to breed or show, I would also want a dog from a breeder such as this, and hopefully she would allow me to have one with show potential, if I ever met her standards. Best of luck! |
