Sorry - Did not mean to hurt anyone's feelings. I am now just returning back after a break of raising my own kids and since being gone in the yorkie knowledge biz I had never heard or seen a chocolate yorkie. I did not know that they are acknowledged by AKC. This is all new to me. So - I educated myself since the discussion started and read up and saw pictures of chocolate yorkies. I can see why some may like the look. In my own taste - they just seem washed out. This is only my opinion and preference. I was talking to a friend of mine and she loves the look. I think this is what the forum is partly about - to educate ourselves and to help one another. So sorry for the first email - did not know.
