 pups
Unless I know the person well, I do not give any papers until the pup is spay/neutered. It does not stop them from breeding the Yorkie, but it will stop most..a letter from the vet is expected after the altering..but you would be surprised how many tell me not to bother sending the papers..why give AKC the money for a spay/neutered pet?
One problem I find is getting breeders to agree on what is breed quality. Reading and comparing to the standard is not so black and white. Judges can not agree on color or texture half the time.
If a Yorkie has a low tail set, does that make it not breed standard? How about too light, too dark, too laid back, on and on...I want to vote YES, to spay/neutering pet quality..I also want to be the one who gets to judge what is pet or what is not..JMO Some breeders do not feel a dog is breed quality unless it is show quality. Others give the standard a very wide range of what is acceptable. |
