Ahhh yes there is a difference between reputable breeders and dog sellers.
In my considerable years of experience, ads that state 'Champions in the pedigree' is usually trying to be used as a selling point but will not actually verify any quality of the puppy being sold BECAUSE the seller thinks these champions somewhere back there is going to make their puppies better. ALthough they have no idea about breed standards or what to breed for in the purebred yorkie nor do they have a clue about the show rings or why breeders select certain dogs in a breeding. A reputable breeder will breed hoping to contribute good attributes to the breed and continue to improve on what they have.
Unfortunately these champion dogs that end up in sellers pedigrees somewhere back there are not there because that show kennel would want them there, they got away from them in most cases from trusting someone with their line they should not have trusted. Without proper selection of what a breeder is breeding, the few champions back generations in a pedigree are contributing very little if anything.
If you wish, visit my website, I do have the pedigrees there I do show my dogs and no nothing is for sale, I don't work that way. |
