You just can't get the points here with a yorkie younger than 3, especially a newcomer. It can happen, but very very rare! It is hard, but figure I am learning more and good for practice.

That's weird about bitches being in the ring at 3 or 4, you'd think you'd want to finish your bitch way before the age of 3 to be able to breed her.

We have heavy hitters here too, Parkside travels here too, and Guemart, and then you get the heavy hitter handler's here too. I've heard people and handler's say they hate coming to the Central States cause some of the top dogs are here (not just yorkies) and the point system is tougher.

Once you consistently take good dogs in the ring, judges will recognize that.
