I believe you took the word too literally, she could have used to word "paraded" or "waltzed" it's just a figure of speach.

But I think all yorkies "prance"
Prancing is different than regular movement/ideal gaiting. If a Yorkie pranced in the ring, the judges likely would not put the dog up.

Prancing, parading, and waltzing are not an ideal gait. These terms are often used here to make light of showing, as if it is nothing more than a beauty pageant.

My post was meant to explain in a small way the importance of showing, which speaks to the entire point of kjcmsw's post: why show people do not offer up their dog's to non-show breeder to breed. Showing is the means of evaluating breeding stock, like it or not.
