It's not about the dogs, it's about the breeders, and yes, there are plenty of bad breeders who breed standard color yorkies, but they don't follow the standard in other ways. Again, it's not about the dogs, it's about the breeders. This is a Yorkshire Terrier site, and of course you will have members who believe in the mother club who sets the standard, the AKC is just a registry. There are plenty of yorkies that are registered, that don't fit the standard, that is not what the AKC does. There is enough conflict about this without people suggesting that we don't like the dog. That has nothing to do with it. |
Nancy, I don't care how you word it, by being against the breeding of partis, you are essentially against the dogs. If you had your way, partis would never be bred, so how can that be interpreted any other way than you are against partis?
