I will tell you this. I do know of some parti breeders who have a protocol for their breeding program and I know of many so-called show breeders (even some YTCA members) who do not have a protocol for testing.
I would like my previous questions answered about enhancing coat color.
I think you should spend some of your time along with some others policing the YTCA members to make sure they adhere to the standard.
Plain and simple the AKC does recognize the parti yorkie. If the AKC did not recognize the parti yorkie many of them would not be AKC registered. |
I'm for better breeding period. The AKC also registers dogs that live in puppy mills, the AKC is just a registry, and just because a dog is registered with them, it means very little about the quality of the dog or the breeder. If you are referring to the link in my signature, I do that as a service to those members of Yorkietalk who want to find an ethical breeder in their area. I am not affiliated with the YTCA, and my views are my own. I just appreciate the fact that a member of Yorkietalk (not a member of the YTCA), told me about the YTCA, and I was able to find a breeder whose standards matched my own. You still have to do your homework. I'm not in favor of people buying dogs from websites; I think every buyer should do a home inspection before they purchase a dog.
Can't really comment on enhancing coat color, if you mean as some type of trick for a show, the breeder is just fooling themselves. Most ethical breeders are building a line, not just selling pets, if you are doing that, what good would it be to breed a dog, that’s not really worthy of breeding?
