I think anyone who has ever said those things should not be breeding. Way too many backyard breeders out there and if they are offended by posts like this than too bad, its the dogs that pay the price which is much more costly than a few hurt feelings of those that care so little about ethics, the betterment of the breed and care mostly about money.

I understand your point too Amber, its a tough one. But I do not want YT to become BYB central, but also hope that we can help the yorkies and their puppies when in danger because of the lack of responsibilty of their owners. First of all the yorkies and their safety must come first, we can't turn our back on them.

Maybe threads like this will prevent someone from breeding their dogs, at least it gets them thinking about whats right and wrong.
