You should not even be wondering about breeding a dog with a genetic fault! THAT is only the first in a multi issue list of disqualifiers. Responsible breeders sweat blood and tears, trying DESPERATELY to irradicate defects in this breed, and now we have situation where an unethical ''breeder'' has sold you a wonderful PET, and has made no effort to ensure this pet would NOT be bred irresponsibly, passing this defect on to more yorkies. What is so tragic, the USDA is going to effectively shut down small responsible, knowledgable, ethical breeders that would never even give something like this a second thought, by imposing regulations that are financially unattainable for most, and stuff like THIS is gong to go completely unnoticed/unregulated.....and this is part of what is going to ruin our beloved breed. Absolutely breaks my heart watching it all go to helen-a-handbasket.
