I do not agree with the teaspoon or the arm and a leg thing as it is not funny at all.
Now I am sure I will get some people mouthing me on this one but hey I am allowed to voice my opinion just like everyone else on here.
I do not think that all people who do breed the 4,5, and maybe 6 pound females are just out for the money. Some of us can love the breed and want to have off spring from certain looking ones. Some of us do want certain qualities, looks and so on in their yorkies. As for me the thing people are stuck on about health issues does not always go that way. You can breed the smaller ones without risking their lives or their litters lives. If you have them checked out by a REPUTABLE vet and that vet knows yorkies and says yes it is ok and that this dam should be just fine, maybe with monitoring and so on then why not breed her....... If you are just breeding to get the very tiny ones and keep going tinier and tinier then I would say that is a problem. But if your looking to better the breed, you care about the breed and not just the money you get then what is the problem???
People say they breed the standard size yorkies.....well aren't the AKC standards anything up to 7 pounds?
I could go on and on but I just honestly think sometimes people jump the gun and go off on others who breed without knowing the truth. Not saying anything about this person since I have no clue as to anything about them, just to say sometimes we are way to quick to judge.... |
