The reason everyone is so passionate about the particular topic you posted about has to do with many questions and experiences that have been shared on this forum. There are many Yorkie owners that did not know about the breed before paying a lot of money on their pups and had awful experiences with breeders that breed just for money. Puppies have gone to their new homes sick, some of them did not survive. That is heartbreaking to hear every time. Also, some pups that have been sold as Yorkies are sometimes not Yorkies at all.
I know many people here are sick of breeders that are in it for the money that advertise "teacup" Yorkies, which is something that does not exist. As Yorkie lovers, we all want Yorkies to be healthy animals that are as close to the standard as possible. Furthermore, usually breeders that are in it for the money are not concerned about what happens to the pups that are sold. Many people here believe that the pups that are sold are the breeder's responsibility. Would you sell the pup to a family that you know are not going to take proper care of the pup? What if an irresponsible person buys a pup to breed its "furry little head off"? There are many questions that you should answer for yourself (not here of course) before you decide to start breeding.
Anyway, I think I've said enough. Sorry you felt attacked but it is a very sensitive issue because our Yorkies are our babies. Please stick around because I am sure you will find so much valuable information here. Best wishes.
Well said without all the personal attatcks I say this because when I first came to yorkie talk I too was attacked.
