I guess I don't get it....why some are defending the practice of dyeing a coat in order to do well in a dog show?
I wasn't defending the use of dyes at all but what I was trying to say is that this is not specific to the Yorkie breed. If it is done in one breed it is mostly likely done in other breeds as well. It is just wrong all around IMO. But I was just trying to get the opinions of some of the people that were posting to this thread and wanted to bring up the reality that there are things that white coated dogs have done to them ie peroxide and bluing agents to enhance their coats as well.
