These members (of both YTCA and regional clubs) will also recommend breeders that are reputable and do breed to standard whether they are YTCA or not as well as try to steer someone away from purchasing their new family member from unethical breeders and lord knows, there are so many of those out there ready to pounce.

That's correct, no one has to just pick a name off a list and that was the point of my post - that there is more to buying a puppy than choosing a name from a YTCA list.
