If I may..the correct term is not standard Yorkie...the standard is a guide line to what is correct..it is a formula or blueprint for the breeder.
The standard states the coat should be glossy, fine and silk in texture...so that is ideal..but it does not mean you can never breed a softer then ideal coat to improve..IF the dog is otherwise good quality.
JMO...but I would not keep a soft coated stud...but I would keep a softer then ideal bitch to breed to a silk lined stud.. |
