I think there is a lot of cases where people are judging other people for breeding their yorkies or other types of breeds without really knowing them or their reasons for breeding.

Oh and for the mutt comments I have been reading, I don't believe mixing of two pure breeds qualifies them as a mutt. A mutt is a mix of SEVERAL breeds, not just two and usually a mutt can't be determined as to what they are mixed with. IMO that is the true definition of mutt.
I completely agree 100%!!! Especially on that last part about the mutts. I consider something like a Yorkie/Maltese or a Yorkie/Poodle a mix. A mutt usually has many different breeds in their ancestry...making it so that you really have no idea exactly what kind of dog it is.

I took the liberty of searching the definition of a mutt on dictionary.com and here is what I found:

Mutt: A mongrel dog.

That definition didn't explain much so I looked up the definition of mongrel.

Mongrel: An animal or a plant resulting from various interbreedings, especially a dog of mixed or undetermined breed.

JMHO
