I guess that would depend on your point of view. My purpose when I do a breeding is not to fill a pet market in the first place. Although the Yorkie is now considered to be #2 in popularity in the US according to just released statistics, I will tell you that the numbers of good home puppy enquiries that I would be willing to sell to, are about the same as I had 10 years ago. Yes, I get multitude enquiries, phone, emails, referrals, but with the popularity of the breed there are so many that are not good homes for one reason or the other.
The people that buy my puppies are very happy they do not have to worry about spay/neuter the puppy is not real young, greater than six months, and so much easier for them to housebreak and enjoy.
For those who want a puppy very young they are more than welcome to go elsewhere.
Interestingly enough, I get some enquiries that are more than happy to have one of puppies, age, size, male, female etc that is until they find out my nonbreeding contract is that it is already spay/neutered.
