Yet...a YTCA member owned "champion" parti producer...is still producing puppies and some of them are being shown. The YTCA and it's members can't have it both ways. | You keep bringing reference to this YTCA member over and over. This breeder is not breeding for parti yorkies. Yes, she did have a beautiful champion that produced some parti pups. This breeder requested the owner of the female to pet out the pups and not sell them with open registration. This incidences happened about 3 years ago I think. The fault is with the owner of the bitch, not the owner of the sire. If you own a beautiful representative of the breed you do not just quit using him because he produces some off standard pups in one breeding. You just don't repeat the breeding. If it was continually happening I could see him being retired but not because of one breeding that happened 3 years ago. You should know that not every breeding will be perfect. We learn from our mistakes and move on.
