I'm going to take a stab at your questions:

but who are the breeders to say that the buyers couldn't or wouldn't do it? I don't think breeders are saying that buyers can't or shouldn't breed. But they are saying that they can't buy their dogs and breed them. Many breeding-quality males can be found in the price range of $1200 from breeders who would sell w/ full registration. Why not go elsewhere? Yorkie breeders are a dime a dozen. GOOD breeders are priceless.
Were the breeders here born breeding dogs? No, but the puppies are their property and they can decide that they don't want them bred/want them altered if they so choose.
Is it not possible to want to better the breed without actually prancing around in a ring?  My answer to this would be "no, it's not truly possible. But many others would argue otherwise. My dog is not a show dog. He's not even close. I would only breed him if he were a champ or has SERIOUS champ qualities |
