Please don't take this wrong but please don't believe AKC breeders are breeding to standard. YTCA members do (or at least the majority of them do - I am not a member so someone can correct me if I am wrong) but many, AKC breeders do not. It is one of the reasons we encourage people to see the parents and not buy over the internet.
