I only wanted a Yorkie, and for a pet, and was very cautious in my research of someone/breeder that met
my requirements as a breeder. WOWZA, I had requirements and specificatons from where i was buying my pup, never once did the considering their breeding program??
Are you referring to weather or not it was from a BYB, pet store??
I'm considering a new addition and have yet to find a rescuse with mom/dad on site and the rescue having complete background info of the health of that dog unless they had it since it was born?
