There is a woman down the street from me who has some lovely yorkies (conned out of some very nice lines). She tells me she is not a BYB but a "hobby breeder". I have offered to show her dogs for her, she says she doesn't have time to grow their coats. The only activity she is involved in with her dogs is "breeding". Hmmmm, in her words "not a BYB but a hobby breeder". What exactly is her "hobby".

I consider a hobby breeder as one that has learned the breed inside and out, been active in showing, but now retired from the show world.
But on the other side of the coin, when I interview potential families, that is one of my questions...tell me your lifestyle.....it's the only way I can determine the right pup for them.
