Additionally:


Your site says that your puppies are KC registered but the dam appears to have floppy ears which isn't KC standard according to the Yorkshire Terrier Club of England:


| The Yorkshire Terrier Club - Breed Standard |


Additionally, you are not listed on the KC site as an assured breeder or any other type of approved breeder. Is it difficult to put yourself on the site if you're legitimate KC? I dunno....

Finally, the sire that you are using is being auctioned off at £250 a time on Pets4homes.co.uk which is a site renown for its puppy farm breeders and other unethical selling practices:


Toy Yorkshire Terrier At Stud KC Reg For Stud | Pickering, North Yorkshire | Pets4Homes


So, you say that you are in the position to advise re: puppy release time and hypoglycemia but the lack of adherence to KC standards, despite KC registration assurance, and the use of a stud from an unethical site makes me wonder...


I do not point these things out to be confrontational but to sort of let you know how seriously we investigate breeder claims when they contravene standard advice. You are entitled, by all means, to critically challenge any evidence. In fact, it would be unwise to NOT challenge standards. However, it is unlikely that your challenges will gain any ground if the basics in other areas are not met.


On the grounds of your advice re: hypoglycemia, early release and the rest of the info above, I would conclude that you are (at best) an inexperienced breeder.


Hey, we all have to start somewhere. BUT, if I think it, others think it and at least I have been honest so that you can make an informed decision on whether or not you want to continue with the current perception.

Instead of the Ad Hominems, arguments from authority and Red Herrings where is your evidence on what is a simple topic.

Surely you can do better than a "inexperienced breeder" you say is contravening "standard" advice.

You are not remotely being "honest".
