The standard has been in place for decades...why do people take it into their own hands to decide it's useless? Not getting it. It is just as wrong to breed tiny yorkies as it is to breed oversized...if it doesn't meet the standard (and it's up to the breeder to learn what that is BEFORE BREEDING) then alter the dog..period...otherwise, God help this breed! | |
