Years ago, I had an AKC registered Yorkie, but I always thought that she looked more like a silky. She was my first Yorkie and I didn't investigate the way I would now because I bought her from a pet home in 1990. Well, years later just for the hell of it my vet did a dna test on her because he always thought that if she wasn't 1/2 Silkie then she might be full and what do you know, she was 100% Silkie sold as an AKC Yorkie!! The "breeder" could have had a friend that had AKC registered Yorkies that was willing to list her dogs as the true parents of my dog, who knows, they just can sell Yorkies for more than Silkies so that is why they do it. When there is a will there is a way and some people don't care about committing fraud!! Buyer beware!! |
