Lol, I know many years ago before the government required all children to have social security numbers, there was a lady that claimed her dogs as dependents. I also know of breeders that would get extra puppy registration papers and use those papers to register dogs they bought that did not have papers. There have always been cheaters around.
If the YTCA changed the standard to allow parti yorkies then what about all the other coat colors? I have seen some beautiful black yorkies but does that mean they should be allowed in the show ring? I just prefer to leave the standard the way it is. Just my opinion. |
Barbara don't worry the standard isn't going to change to allow Parti's in the ring. Let those brag about their carriers in the ring and even champion them if it makes them happy but know it won't get any warm welcomes within the yorkie show world well except those who don't care about the breed standard...JMO We'll just continue to try and educate those that want to learn and learn the right way
