I'm so glad people can see this, and I so agree with you. Her first post says:

I have come to know all the rules. I know all about breeding to better the breed. I know that purebred yorkies should only produce more purebred yorkies if they are genetically tested, championed, etc..... I know what should be done and what SHOULD NOT be done!! I know they are "mutts".... I know they aren't recognized by AKC.... But, guess what?? I don't care!!! (well, I do but I don't).... I also know what negative feedback I will get from this thread...and that's ok.

She knows what should be done, but obviously she doesn't know
why these things are important, they are just "rules" and she doesn't have to follow any rules, it's a free country. She wants no responsiblity for causing drama, yet she says things like we "won't like her dog".
For all of you with an open mind, I just want to say, according to the Humane Society, 75% of the dogs at the pound are mixed breed, with only 25% being purebred. I think when buying a dog the local humane society should always be the first thing you consider, but I also think it’s important to support the future of the Yorkshire Terrier breed, by going to an excellent breeder. It’s important that we look toward the future and do things that don’t just impact us, but impact those in the future.
Yorkietalkers aren't just hard on people who buy from mixed breed breeders; they are hard on anyone who supports a bad breeder. Many have written similar accounts about how the bought their dog from a puppy mill and are PROUD and didn't care what we said, the dog needed a home, others write about buying from a pet store, but don't care what we say, the dog needed a home. For everyone purchased, two will replace it, so you are all so right when you say you don’t care, well I do care. So this is not about the dogs, it's about the breeders.
