Taylor life is not so black and white, it is made of shades of grey. THe YTCA recommends a 12wk guideline. It is just that a guideline and a recommendation.

It is still breeders choice to place the puppy when the puppy is ready to go home. Some breeders might keep some pups until 16wks old, some might let go at 10wks. The absolute timing is only one, and only one factor, that goes into creating a reputable breeder.

I admire your passion for the YT, but there is still a wealth of knowledge to slowly accumulate about this breed.

I have learnt something from everyone here. And I continue to learn.

It is a great forum, with many passionate folks. Don't let your passion blind you to other points of view that just might differ from what the YTCA recommends.
