Hitler was a modifier, dont take it the wrong way :-) He tried to create the perfect world and kill off all the jews, there where less then 4,000 jews at the end. Another story.
The god part was based on altering the yorkie to create the perfect breed.
There where a few post saying i should not bc she does not meet standards and those state less the 7# well, depending on what club you are looking at. AKC, UKC etc.
My point was, pure is pure and if you are a good breeder trying to improve the breed them it should not matter if she is less then 7 pounds. I can start a club today and in 7 years you will see posts saying that it does not meet my club standards lol. That is basically what i was saying. Improving the breed does not mean to breed within the standards. Someone here said it the best and sorry for forgetting who said it but they said that it was a templet but many do not think so.
Its not a option bc we have moved from Texas and im not so sure it would be the same and im not to sure if Mollys father is still around. I would have to call them if i can get ahold of them again. All there info is on her paper work.
Forgot to add, if someone wants a show yorkie then they need to pay for one and someone who trys to create and breed withing those standerds on perpose then they are doing it for the money, my thoughts only..

Hitler? Really? Is it logical to compare hitler's actions to breeders breeding a dog? As was mentioned before, if I see a Yorkie in a dog show and think, "That's it! That's the dog I've been wanting." Then, I go and spend money to get that dog and I got one of your non-standard "pure" yorkies when I could have went to a true and experienced breeder and gotten a yorkie that is going to look like the one I wanted in the first place....I would be beyond Pizzed! Hitler? C'mon. 
I like that you are asking these questions. I like that you do not have your mind made up about breeding Mollie. I'm sorry it's not an option to get another pup in her line from her breeder. Why is that not an option? Does this breeder not breed any longer?
You say not to play God. There is a difference between playing God and being a responsible dog parent. If you didn't control who Mollie was bred with, she could go get preggers by the pit bull down the street, no?
One more thing. No body here has told you, "No. You cannot breed Mollie. No, do not breed even pure yorkies." Everyone has said that you shouldn't.
I agree. Some very good points have been made in this thread. 
I lied - one more thing lol - if you breed a dog with no experience or training or license to do so, you are by definition a byb. I know several byb's and it doesn't make them all bad (I disagree that all byb's are inately wrong). It is what it is though. |
