Like it was considered a shameful sign they were a 'bad breeder' or something because this happened to them?!?

Anyways~I just wonder if the 'blue born' thing has been blown out of proportion by some super~radical breeders~like the 'white boxer' "not breed standard so kill it" thing?!? Just a thought?!?

Who Knows ?
I have wondered myself, do almost all born blues have health problems or only some ? I did research on red and blue Dobermans because that is what my search kept coming back to. I could not find any case studies about Blue Born Yorkies. I think on YT, people that have Blue Borns should keep records about their life. We may be finding out the facts for future Blue Borns.
I do think Blue Borns were mostly given away free, or put down by serious show breeders. I know they have been popping up for generations, just like, golden, parti colored and chocolate Yorkies have. Who has really followed Blue Borns from birth to death ? We need to know more, maybe someone would like to do a study ?
We are all here to support each other and to learn. Welcome to all new YT posters. Don't give up on us, please stay and let's learn from each other.
