I know many that do not color and I really don't think it's "common" practice actually. Yes, you'll have some that do color and you know....if it's being done to be competitive as you say then you also have to say it's being competitive when you use hairspray, gel, anti stat, shine sprays, conditionars, the little red bow ect and to be perfectly honest all that other stuff except the red bow can be used to "EXCUSE" a yorkie from the ring.....what I don't understand is why is someone that does color their dog so important to you when there are bad top lines, horrible rears and fronts and the exhibitors that tease a top line to make it not look bad....why aren't you calling all that deceptive and just hone in on color? There is so much that is being done more so than enhancing the color to cover up faults....I'm just seeing you have a problem with coloring over what is more important in my opinion and that is health and structure and movement....there is more problems in the ring with that than coloring and enhancing...I'm in the ring "A LOT" to see what is going on....Again, not to be argumentative ti's just how I see it.

LOL, funny but I have had a breeder/exhibitors tell me their dog is enhanced and what products they used. Donna, I am not trying to argue with you, I feel structure is much more important than color. I am just saying that I wish people could just show their dogs without having to enhance the coats. I just like the natural look.
