I don't want to change the topic here...just saying I don't understand why the YTCA can't just be all inclusive or is it truly to be considered the Standard Yorkshire Terrier Club of America (I know I'm so naive right) ? Others color with their breed clubs find a way to have a non-three-breed-altered dog accepted into the AKC for showing...they're Yorkies in one meaning and acceptance not so much in another...
Just wish everyone in the least could get along, respect the preferences of others, and take issue with calling something irresponsible breeding when in fact their definition of irresponsible is based on a truly irresponsible actions that would apply to even their breed or breed color of choice (again I'm perhaps just all naive right?)...
Like I said I have a pure white miniature schnauzer she is registered here and is registered in Germany. In Germany she is acceptable for show here no...she's white and the American club excludes white while in Germany they accept them....considered black with the exclusion of pigment...I don't get it all but at least they include all naturally occurring colors.
Just seems all politics to me...  ...hmmmmm explains it so much thinking of it like that. |
My point was that you dislike the YTCA for the very thing they are suppose to do. You should then dislike all breed clubs, because they also have standards, a breed club is not all-inclusive, and it can't be! While I believe it's okay to disagree with their choice of standard, it seems like too many people constantly are putting down the YTCA, and belittling it because of their personal preferences.
You say, " Just seems all politics to me...

...hmmmmm explains it so much thinking of it like that." What does that mean?
My second paragraph was directed at the people who criticize other breeder's replies. Sometimes an experienced breeder will say things like, "You need to get that dog to the vet", and another breeder will say, "Oh you just think only people who show should breed, we all have to start somewhere."
