Like I said, champion dam, all 4 grand parents, all great grand parents, 10 of the great great, the remaining CH are in the last/5th generation showing.
the lines are Durrer's, Moonlight, Aero, Lake Buena Vista, Parkside, et al.
I looked up the names online and they are all good looking Yorkies, all with their own fairly impressive pedigrees (except...to my untrained eye, I wasn't that impressed with the Durrer's "look", but again my eye is worthless in such an evaluation)
Yes, I've met the parents...look good to me.
thanks for reminding me that other countries could have different standards. |
The names you're listing are all well known and accomplished, and yes, one must go ahead and assume that the champions on it were excellent representations of the breed. Don't forget that foreign titles can be even more difficult to obtain, such as dogs under 16 months can only earn a Jr CH under FCI rules. While a nice pedigree doesn't guarantee you a show winner, it definitely increases your chances of having one. Good luck with it.
