Fran...that is hilarious!! Great comeback!!Hah!

I have always had a problem with this.....so much so that I am always asking why the standard uses weight instead of height and length as the determinent for size since that is what most other breeds do like poodles for example....

I remember when I got my Chai, she is a gold and white yorkie, and I got so irritated.....I belonged to another forum at the time, not YT, and all anyone could ask about was whether she was AKC, is she really a yorkie, what did her parents look like, was I sure the breeder was being honest, etc.

I finally said "Does anyone want to know about her personality?" And I went on to talk about her temperament and how she was getting along with my other dogs, etc. They all shut up after that...lol.....go figure.....the negative is more interesting than the positive I guess...i don't know?

The question I get asked most when I am out with mine is "Are you a breeder?" because I usually have more than one with me and I talk about the others too when someone strikes up a conversation with me.
