I read of many members saying they love their yorkies permed like coat, personally, I don't like curly hair, but this is not the reason I'm against breeding for it. A good breeder, in my opinion, should work within standard, and put their touch on those things that are still within standard. You seem to be saying that I should be in favor of supporting all breeders, or all breeders who breed to standard, except for the parti color.

Unlike the AKC, the YTCA is not a business, its a group of breeders who love the breed, and want to do what's right for it. I'm not saying that every YTCA breeder is wonderful, just in case I have to add that. Are you against all breed clubs? What's the purpose of breeding a purebred, do you think you can take a purebred, and breed for whatever qualities you personally like? Obviously, you seem to think that, but I think it's wrong.
Oh my....your last two sentences show that you have TOTALLY missed my point(s). Also, I never said that you dislike the tricolor...I said you have written about your dislike of breeding them. As for asking me if I am against all breed clubs.... Nancy, I am against a group of people telling me, a grown woman with opinions, what is right and wrong. I will not follow the crowd just because someone tells me that they have decided what the acceptable rules are...those "rules", mind you, have been created based on their own personal likes/dislikes. I have my own mind, my own likes/dislikes....I do not need to follow what others tell me to do. I feel that my opinion(s) are just as valuable as someone else. I have bred my parti Yorkie because I love the color and she just as much of a Yorkshire Terrier as those that you say are bred to the standard.

I have no idea what you are saying or asking with this statement: "You seem to be saying that I should be in favor of supporting all breeders, or all breeders who breed to standard, except for the parti color." I cannot even begin to answer this because it doesn't make sense to me.
