My guess is, it would be the same. The YTCA can preach ethices, but they can not force them. If one is unethical, joining a club is not going to change them. And if one IS ethical, the lack of a club is not going to change that.
I am going to make some changes to the CYTC website to include advertising eithics. However I do not believe it is going to change how the various members conduct their business. |
Yes, that's why they have to be very careful who they let in, there's always some snake that manages to fool everyone.
I'm a little disappointed that some of Yorkietalk breeders seem to be defending breeders who use terminology such as "teacups" and "purse puppies". Like I said earlier, the purpose of this thread was to educate people, especially young women that yorkies are a very active breed, and they will not be content to live happily in your purse or under your dorm bed.
