4. I can live with a not so nice head, if the rest there. Although I do like a pretty head.

I have to have structure and movement but health to me is the #1 priority then comes the structure and movement. Then I move on to a pretty head. I've never had so far an attitude problem to deal with LOL...I believe in if the puppies are raised in a socializaton and good environment then you'll have the attitude you are looking for. It seems when I'm evaluating puppies the ones I see that I like always have the attitude but that is in my experince so far.
Coat color is the last I worry about because without the other the color doesn't matter in my opinion. Achieving the color should be important but I can live with a lighter yorkie than I can with a horrible structure and topline
