Every repytable breeder I know if has encountered a tiny, runt, they place them as pet only with special needs in specific homes-I've always heard breeders express the gealth &the safety concerns if tinies...let alone genuine upset at the purposeful breeding for and of them.
It is ceterinary standard opinion NO DOG OF ANY BREED UNDER 5LBS SHOULD EVER BE BRED-as in never ever.
That says a lot IMHOpinion. |
Here I am in the breeders section and I still see push back toward reputable breeders who do not accept the breeding of Yorkies toward the tiny size. (I have to comment that the dogs in question in this thread almost look as though there had been an out cross to a Shih Tzu considering the head shape. That is not natural for a Yorkie head type)
In the general discussion area it is almost taboo to speak against tiny breeding. People want it! The general public can only find tiny breeders when they do an internet search and I suppose they assume it is common practice in the Yorkie world. It seems YT should be the place people can go to find the truth about such practices. If anyone cared that is.
