Embarassed For those of you who really care-

"And I am sure that your yorkies are the best to you but that dont meen you should breed your dogs either , I dont know you And I have never seen your dogs but by your judgementle attitude I can already tell you pups wouldnt be worth anything to me. I am not a judgemenle person but when it comes to standing up for myself and what I beleive I am going to do it."

No, I do not think Little Nemo is the best and should be BRED because of it. Never once did I say that. My "judgementle" (nice sp. by the way-it's judgmental, no e.) attitude is what steers me to well bred dogs. And if you don't want a Yorkie from an educated/experienced breeder of well bred Yorkies, then that's your opinion and options are abound for that. Not everyone can be perfect (for every standard), but that shouldn't stop one from trying! And since I DON'T call myself a breeder, it's good thing you'll never come knocking at my door.

"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"

Yes, that's what I'm saying. Thank God for Little Nemo and we're elated to have him. If this cycle of byb or puppy mills never even began from the beginning we wouldn't have to settle for this. I QUITE UNDERSTAND the necc. of having a VARIETY of Yorkies from a variety of kennels and places and DO see the importance of it along w/ genetics (which people don't care nearly enough about-this is where we get out phenotypes and our bases for temperment and health), I just wish from the beginning people who truely loved the breed really watched what they were producing more closely and we never would have been in this situation. Now that we ARE, I can see the necc. for breeders such as Nemo's and am thankful he is here, but that doesn't stop me from wishing breeding mistakes had never taken place to begin w/. $hit happens and we have Nemo for it and dogs like him that are just as perfect as can be (in health and temperment) and just aren't well bred purebreds and that doesn't make them any lesser of a dog. And $3000 for a Yorkie is OUTRAGEOUS and I wouldn't touch it w/ a ten foot pole! Where are you looking?!? On-line breeders who sell eight different toy breeds?? I can give you any number of breeders who are considered at the top of their game in the breed rings and you won't be charged this amount of money for a " " Yorkie!

One last commentary (I promise, unless I'm poked again) is that my maturity shouldn't be under scrutiny just because someone is frustrated and needs a rebut opinion. If anything I love this breed for what it is and what it used to be, I show this breed and I don't breed this breed. And I'll I've shared are my opinions and experiences and that's exactly what this board is all about. Thank You.
(it's interesting how the very people question my maturity have to come in w/ a quip: "Miss Trainer." at the end. Nice.)
