It is inconcievable to me, as a breeder, to walk up to a complete stranger and make a "blanket statement" that their dog is not a "real yorkie"! I would love it if ANYONE that is confronted with such a remarkably stupid,rude statement, would ask the person making the statement what their qualifications are for such a deduction, and if they indicate they are a "breeder", get the name of their kennel.....ask them what their predominate lines are, how long they have been breeding yorkies, how much time they have put into studying pedigrees and the history of the breed....hold their feet to the fire.....that will indicate to that person you may actually have some working knowledge about the breed and YOUR dog and your dogs pedigree.....BYB will not generally have that much interest or knowledge in what they are breeding. Of course there is no term "teapot" yorkie......it is a lighthearted play on the term "tea cup yorkie", one being smaller than usual pups, the other being larger than usual pups. Crazy, rude, intrusive, nosey, "know it all" busy bodies....do not pay these people any attention....she was trying to sell you a dog and she obviously has not been breeding for very long if she has not ever had a "throwback" outlier pop up in a litter! |
