Gosh, what's so wrong with getting a Yorkie with an undocked tail? Especially if the pup isn't for show or breeding purposes.

Many of our yorkies are too big, have muzzles that are too long, have ears set too far apart, they aren't the exact required color, don't have black claws, still have dewclaws on their hindlegs, etc, etc. In other words, they don't meet the breed standard one way or the other. But they are our PETS and we love them.

If we love Yorkies and aren't comfortable with tail-docking, why must we get a different breed?
