Yes, I do believe that people should use their own judgement, but also people who do not have experience with a breeder should be a little less judgmental and quick to judge and a little less harsh in their comments. Maybe also choose their words a little more carefully and state that they have no personal experience.. |
I agree. Personal experiences are always welcomed and are very valuable to perspective buyers. People have very strong convictions when it comes to these adorable yorkies. I tell you, it's hard to find a breeder that doesn't have an unhappy customer in it's past. Even show breeders. Purchasing a pet used to be so easy! Now it's like researching a term paper combined with a flow chart. Your babies are adorable and since Joann is no longer breeding it's a moot point on her breeding practices, I would delete my previous post but I don't see how to do that.
I could never be a breeder, it is way more complicated than the average layman could understand. When done correctly, all those tests, genetics, lines, heck even tail docking sound more complicated than I could ever understand...plus the fact that with all those cute faces, I'd never be able to part with one. It'd be like parting from a child. I'm way too sensitive to handle that.
