They either have one or the other. And if they DO have both, then they are intelligently kept by the person who produced them or the show home is already lined up. Seldom do those fall through. OR the dog is offered at a ridiculously high price ($5,000) for a puppy that can go any number of ways. If I were to come across a young adult that had what I was looking for, I don't mind paying that much.
If you think you have something that I missed, please jump in and show me. I'm sure at this point you wouldn't want a pup going into this show home. And that's fine.
It's entirely possible that your kennel is one of a few that I've overlooked. But why? Most likely because you don't really campaign your dogs in the direction that it would catch my eye. I look for everything mentioned above, but above all I look for health and I see no mention of it in regards to your breeding stock on your website, nor have I heard of you around the Yorkie community in regards to shows or parent clubs. Those are the first places someone like me would look or advise others to look.
-What standard do you breed by?
-Do you belong to a breed club or endorse them?
-What physical tests have been done on your breeding stock?
-What in your opinion qualifies them to be bred?
-At what age to you begin breeding your males and females?
-What kind of health guarantee to you offer?
-How many dogs do you own on property?
-Out of that many, how many are producing?

Those were just a few that I would ask, not in that way, but they'd come out.
hey Leslie...I never heard of you either....does that automatically make you a person without ethics/standards that I should question you? I have posted the answers to your questions many times on this forum, please use the archives to search. Other info is listed on my website,including my health guarantee.
