As much as I visit our local shelter...... I am still a HUGE advocate of keeping the breeds breeding into there own line......I am thinking primarily of the many, many years of breeders trying to improve their lines....whether it is Yorkie, Pom, Poodles.....whatever.
I realize that the Yorkie originated from two different small breeds......look at the internet for the origin......so in actuality, if we were to look way, way, way back.....you will see that it took two different breeds to make the Yorkie......
But, I say to each his own........I just would NEVER breed to unlike breeds in order to provide a "different" looking dog. You never know what you will get, both physically, emotionally or heathwise....
And I think of ALL the work that has been done before me.........I am not going to be the ONE to screw up history......I just won't.
