Yes and most YTCA members do not call themselves "show breeders", they say they are hobby breeder/exhibitors who are YTCA members. There is a subtle difference in terminology that some people will understand.
Their "Code of Ethics" states that they: shall not use terms such as "teacup", "tiny specialists", "doll faced", or similar terminology in their advertising. I think all breeder should strive to meet the standards given by the mother club. They should at least know about them!
