Developmental coordination has absolutely NOTHING to do with how a child is raised. Young toddlers do not have the physical developmental coordination necessary to safely maneuver around a puppy. I could not forgive myself if I went against my better judgement and wanted the $$$$ rather than what I personally felt was best for the puppy. I will sacrifice a sell rather than try to justify in my mind, one of my babies getting injured/killed because of getting ACCIDENTALLY stepped on, dropped, sat on, dropped in a fish tank to teach it how to swim, like a co-workers child did, etc......I couldnt live with that! There are tons of people that WILL sell to families with small children, so I have no problems with feeling like I may have denied some family the opportunity to own a Yorkie! Breeders have to make choices that THEY feel works best for their breeding program.....some of the policies are not popular, but you stand by your convicrions, if based on good cause! Developmental coordination is my guideline for my decisaion!
