Okay here is goes, lol! When I first thought about breeding the quality of the yorkies I had were okay, but nothing to write home about.. Once I decided that I wanted to only breed to produce something to show everything changed for me.. My hobby has become studying pedigrees and looking at the many different types of yorkie each line produces.. I can remember back to when I had my first couple of litters I was excited about the puppies, but nothing like I am now! I feel the quality of my yorkies has changed and for the better.. Now when I decide to breed for a litter I am unbelievably excited beyond belief! I cannot wait for the puppies to be born and I cannot wait to see the quality they mature into as adults! I will gladly admit when I first started breeding I did not think I would have or be able to have anything showable.. But I feel I have worked very hard and I am very excited as to the possibilities in the future..
Irene I also have wondered the same thing.. I have never been able to understand when someone says my line, but yet all the lines started somewhere else.. But I guess we all have to start somewhere and I suppose once we have championed a yorkie or two and started producing our own show prospects I suppose we will be saying the same thing..
