I agree that the attributes that make Yorkies so beautiful is because of the standard look that reputable breeds work so carefully to achieve . But the tail being docked is a human thing done to the dog after its born, not before…So, its not like a short tail will ever be passed on to the next generation. I think I should have kept my mouth shut, lol. I'm in something I don't know enough about here.
Your opinion and thoughts are appreciated and welcome here ! Don't feel you should have to keep your mouth shut...not at all...all opinions welcome.

Btw, I'm with you on the tail issue. I wish the standard regarding docked tails would change...and catch up w/ the rest of the world where docking is often outlawed entirely.
