I studied lines and was lucky enough to find the lines I wanted locally. My mentor is my breeder. |
After my first dog show as a spectator I was hooked. My very first dog show was the Houston Reliant in Houston, Tx and from then on I attended all the local shows and joined Bluebonnet Yorkshire Terrier club. My first contact was Lee Grunwald actually. I also help Kara Parks hold a yorkie. I was lucky in how I got involved and it just evolved from there. I"ve been showing since 2004. I"ve always had my type of yorkie I like and have pretty much stayed with the type I like. Although, I do prefer Radar's lines but the sad part is Aero no longer breeds but I can have access to what is behind Aero and other breeders with that line.
