I actually think I know what the answer to this is gonna be, but if I couldn't find a suitable stud for one of my girls on this stupidly tiny island, on a scale of one to impossible, what do y'all reckon the likelihood of a Good breeder agreeing to mate their male to a girl in another country? I am hopeful that I may have found the right stud over the border- which would be brilliant- but if that falls through for some reason, would a Good breeder agree to sending a sample for A.I to a bitch they have not seen and touched face to face?
(This is assuming she passes all her tests of course, but at very almost a year old, her knees are pristine, and I'm not overly worried at all over the results of everything else either).
See, the problem is that yorkies are a dime a dozen here- you can't walk down any street without seeing at least one, but the gene pool of healthy, breed standard YT is even smaller than I originally thought, and with our breed club not promoting any health tests at all (because the kc abs doesn't require any) then it makes things even harder! I have 12-14 months to figure all this out, but was curious what the possibility of bringing in American blood would be (and I know that is is even more difficult because I havnt been breeding long- and understand entirely why that will put most off the idea, so saying so won't hurt feelings! Lol)
Thoughts? I'm aiming too high here aren't I?


And merry Christmas everyone; and winter greetings for anyone to whom the last greeting doesn't apply!!!
