Correction: If everyone was breeding for the betterment of the breed there would still be many members on YT. Probably more happy ones. We would see less drama and horror stories from all of these backwards bred puppies that too many people buy and continue to contribute to the problem of, which later end up as a rescue because of people not willing to pay for well bred Yorkies. Or are willing to take the time to help the sick or problem ones that they have purchased. I'm talking about the people who throw them away, not the people who actually rsecue them and give them a better life.
no the members would go down from the 1000s to maybe the 100s..sure they would be happy they would be the only ones with yorkies...its not that people arent willing to pay..its that people cant or wont pay 1800+ for a yorkie..which is still a dog, a pet, or go through some of the breeder rigorous inspections and questions..people like them privacy and space...
Temperament is extremely important...it's the mental side of the health issue.
never said it wasnt important..my comment was if they are aggressive all the time...always aggressive not just in the heat and pregnant cycle then they shouldnt be bred but again its typical for females to not get along on their cycles...
