Love how you feel about testing. Graceielove, this was to you didn't mean to pop in first but I will be gone all day today.
I should rephrase that. I care about the standard. But some Yorkies have a "cutesy" face and some have a "terrier" face which are both withing the standards. I don't care about perfect lines ,tail,head,legs length. ect...But I do care that the breeder is trying to KEEP to the standard. Some breeders may breed a Champion and never do it again.
