I meant to mention however, the Red Leg Yorkie. Their coat does not grow properly and as they mature they have long wisps with short hair also. If I recall correctly it is recessive and not something a reputable breeder would ever breed for.
Don't forget the purpose of purebred registered dogs. There are breed standards. Those puppies produced from a mating that is not in keeping with the breed standard are wonderful pets but that mating should never be repeated and 'rare' should never be the purpose of the breeder. The goal as stated in the purpose of a reputable breeder, to produce as close to the breed standard as possible is the case no matter which purebred breed you are referring to. |
