So Yorkiek9trainer are you saying your little Nemo should not have been bred because he is not well bred. Some of us would never have a Yorkie if we were to wait for the ultimate Yorkie. I know when I was looking for a Yorkie we were being quoted $3000 for a Yorkie. There are some nice breeders (registered and hobby) that sell Yorkies for a very reasonable price. Some of these Yorkies have lived to they are 15 years old with no health problems. If these breeders were not around some people would never have the pleasure of owning a Yorkie. When I was looking for our Yorkie one reputable breeder said she would sell me a little female for $2000 but I couldn't have it until it was 5 months of age and spayed. So she was going to deprive us of a very important development time with the puppy. We can't all afford the ultimate Yorkie and I think that is where the hobby breeder comes in.
