Is there a different breed standard for American (akc) and European? I have heard the unofficial observation that American's have smaller Yorkies, I just thought it was "shudder" THE MARKET that drove the breeding of smaller yorkies, is that true in European and Asian countries? So... if the show standards are the same it would be only "pets" that would be different?
Also, I have seen advertising for "baby doll" yorkies which I think refers to the shorter noses.. again not standards but what people want in their pet. Please note... I don't agree with breeding to a "fad" just stating observations.
I am sure my question shows my lack of knowledge about the kennel clubs and such, but I am wondering too.
