I've noticed that a lot of breeders either don't care/don't know to research their lines wayyyyy back. Maybe some can't because somewhere down the line didn't keep record and they got them from a less knowledgeable breeder. A lot of YTCA breeders that show do research and know their lines back and forth from years and years of generations (at least the one's I've known). They don't get nearly as many yorkies that are over the standard of 7 lbs even in dogs that are not shown/ pet quality because of some other minor fault but they may once in a blue moon. Then again it's all about who you know. So even if a so called reputable breeder not in the "show arena" wanted to get a perfect show yorkie to breed on full registration chances are they won't be able to get one. And again YTCA breeders usually stick within YTCA and same with show breeders in terms of giving out breeding rights.
