Yes I realise my little girl may not be a breeder when the time comes but she has potential and that is what Deb sold her as.

I am investing a lot of my time, energy, money, heart and soul into starting this program. It's people like Deb to help others start their dream. Most breeders won't even talk to me, won't even think about mentoring! Even in the CKC code of ethics it talks about mentorship!

I do have a mentor close by, she just won't have any females available for the next few years.

It feels like available I want advice I am scared to write because I'm worried someone will jump all over me. I shouldn't have to explain every little detail every time I write a thread.

I every time there are a lot of people breeding Yorkies for the wrong motives and it must anger those who have dedicated a lifetime to responsible breeding. But please don't assume everyone is like that.

For those of you that have spent years with Yorkies... Don't you want to encourage proper responsible breeding and showing? So many breeders make it so hard to talk to them that it's no wonder people BY breed. My biggest opposition has been people who put me down because I'm new to this even though I want to better the breed... I may have a lot to learn but my heart is in the right place and I want to be careful and thoughtful with my Yorkies.

Sorry, is chuckling or making fun of you. YTCA also encourages mentorship and help to newbies.
