Plus we have a number of show breeders on this site that do not do inbreeding.

I have not attacked you but asked a question because your puppies are so white. If you study about the piebald recessive gene then you see there is a concern in the genetics world about these litters getting smaller and smaller...and the need to bring in new blood.

Two of the three litters that produced these white pups had 5 puppies in them. The average litter is usually 3. It would seem the litters are getting larger. Research I have done suggests that they felt there was no need to breed white yorkies because there was already a white toy breed, the west Highland White Terrier.

Let me quote you, "Eventually the litters will get smaller and smaller until you will not have any more puppies if you continue to do this and not bring in new blood"

In that quote you are saying that if I continue to inbreed. Since I don't inbreed and you are accusing me of it I do take that as personally attacking me. Now, if you had said that breeders who do this have smaller litters that would not have been a personal attack on me.
