BUT I do agree with you that some breeders are into making money just like the majority of Yorkie breeders. Seriously please go to PARTI YORKSHIRE TERRIER CLUB - Home to read about the history of these dogs and the history of Yorkies around the turn of the century. Breezeaway has done an incredible job with this website..and has complete documentation on books written during this time. She has stud books and many newspaper articles that really tell the story.

I do not believe it is one gene breeding any different than the one gene breeding of Yorkies.

I don't think you can point fingers at Parti breeders or Biewer breeders without pointing fingers at Yorkie breeders..
I don't point fingers at any specific breeders, I never recommend anyone, I just say what I think is important to look for in a breeder and people can take my advice or leave it. I have read of breeders who breed father to daughter, and it is my opinion that this shouldn't be done.

Concerning one trait breeding, I'm not talking about one gene breeding and don't understand what you mean, one trait breeding is looking at only one trait and breeding for that, overlooking other important qualities. For example, I believe that teacup breeders are often one trait breeders.
