It gets tiresome to many of us that have these wonderful dogs, to be made to feel they are "less than", not accepted, disregarded, etc., just because we choose to think differently than another. The attitude here makes me not even want to post about or show pictures of Razz.   |
I completely agree to your statement! Being owner of both "standard" and "off standard" yorkies I at one point felt struggle about posting pictures of my parti colors, mainly because of the many negative comments I came across on YT threads. This is a forum for yorkshire terriers and I think all of them should have the same respect level. Whether their color is on or off.
Truth for showing I have no issue about going by the standard because all I want to have is happy pets. Not show dogs. All those rules and characteristics about how something must look like to be considered
beautiful or desired remind me of a time when I came across an "Aryan Beauty" thread in some forum about the "white supremacy" and how they criticized other races or people for not having light colored eyes/skin.
What does it have to do with yorkies? Well, this just makes me think of "racism" within dog breeds. lol
BTW, this is a friendly approach just showing my feel as a pet lover of the breed.
